I have at least four totally unrelated things I want to blog about, but that would turn into a very scattered, VERY LONG post. I’m going to save the slightly heavier stuff for another day and focus on the more fun stuff. (I should clarify, the heavy stuff isn’t heavy. I just can’t think of the right word. The stuff that’ll take a bit more thought to lay out in words. Deeper stuff, maybe?) So rather than four unrelated topics, I’m going with two.
Topic number one! One of our many exceptional friends/neighbours came by yesterday and offered our kids quad rides!! He was taking his son out, and they wanted to include us! Quads are a pretty new thing for our kids, but they were excited to try! For sure Dekker and Laela were all for it! Brady helped tie a couple more sleds to the back of the quad, and off they went, one man towing three kids. And WOW did they squeal and laugh as they drove off!
They came back and offered Rowan another chance to go. And he agreed!!! Ro is usually a bit slower to warm up to stuff like that. Brady and I were both surprised he went, but he did!
Meanwhile, Solly hung out with Brady in the passenger seat of his work van while Brady worked on a few things. Did I tell you guys I got him remote start for Christmas? Well, I did. So he’s working on installing that while he has a few days off.
And Wavy and I folded laundry and watched Crazy Rich Asians inside. No pictures of us, though. I promise, she’s still cute.
Yesterday’s quad afternoon just felt like such a win. I love where we ended up building, and the neighbours we have surrounding us. Our kids are well loved by many, which I feel SO fortunate to say!
Topic number two! Sunday is often a day we spend with my mom, but it wasn’t going to work out this weekend. However, she called me this morning and asked if it was too late for her to run to Tim Hortons and bring breakfast over. Just a quick morning date. Knowing that our kids will happily wait for breakfast if they know something special is coming, I agreed, and asked if I could tag along!
We had a nice morning drive together, and brought home a big stack of breakfast sandwiches, hashbrowns, chocolate milk, and a couple of coffees. The kids were thrilled. It was such a delicious morning, and the good company didn’t hurt either. 💜 Thank you for breakfast, mom.
Well, I’m off to continue the job from yesterday of mad amounts of laundry, organizing, and blog saving. Enjoy the last day of the weekend, friends!
