I missed this more.
I really missed these guys! I have really been enjoying them this past week, and yesterday was just a great day.
Here's why:
Kennedy got herself dressed with a minimum of dawdling, and was so cheerful for morning. Hudson slept all the way till I was done tae-bo-ing and pilates/yoga-ing...he never does that! Plus, he was so happy, too, happily followed me around, chattering and driving his cars, while I got the WHOLE house cleaned and tons of laundry done. I was so productive, it was awesome, and I didn't even feel like I was neglecting him, he was just so happy to watch and jabber. Then, Kennedy got home and we had a quick lunch and then went outside to sled. It was the perfect sledding day: the snow was perfect, and it was warm!
We both just had on snow pants and long sleeve t-shirts by the time we were done. Then, after some hot chocolate, Hudson had a gloriously long nap, even through the front room carpet being shampooed (not even by me! Kirby guys stopped by, and it was "No thank you, I already have one. Yes, you can still clean my carpet." Awesome! Seriously, after the pushy vendors in the DR, the Kirby guys were a piece of cake!) Kennedy and I did some of her crafty-homework together, and just relaxed in our clean house together. It was so nice, I loved not having anywhere to be yesterday but home.
And to top it all off, last night was Taco Night, which I love! We do it up right, chips and salsa, delicious rice ( I have an awesome new recipe, THank you Wes! I'm going to put it here...) and homemade guacamole. Yum. Sorry, no pictures. I was too hungry.
So, I just had to jot this day down. Just about perfect. So thankful to be me.
aren't kids just the best. You can have so much fun on vacation but some how its always fun to be back home...By the way I will be looking you up in the summer. I really want to take Huntyr to bear world, plus I might need the skinny on the good and fun places to eat in your "spud town" :)
ReplyDeleteI would have to agree with you. It is always fun to get away as just the two of you, but nothing beats coming home to the kiddies!! Your kids are so CUTE
ReplyDeleteI loved to hear your perfect day! Can't wait to see you all this weekend!xoxo
ReplyDeleteI am so glad it's finally getting warmer up there! I miss those two cute kiddos too, they are so much fun! Now that I am working a lot I am not used to all the hours being away from Preslie so I really envy stay at home moms more than ever. I will just dream of those days to come for now :) Hopefully I will see ya this weekend! Preslie will make sure those carpets stay really clean don't worry...
ReplyDeleteSounds like a great day! Somedays I love being home too. Not worrying about anything but playing and doing whatever :) The tacos sound yummy!
ReplyDeleteWe love are time away's also but we always talk about what the kids do and then when we get home to them we always love to be around them again. I'm glade that you had such a wonderful time. We love getting out of Rexburg once in a while:)
ReplyDeleteSounds like a fun day. Poor Dustin didn't get to enjoy any of the fun. Oh well. Wish we could see you guys soon, but the company opted out of the career fair this spring since we don't need any new employees. Seems that people are sticking around lately for their jobs instead of job hopping. See ya!
ReplyDeleteAfter a vacation life's just better. Even perfect.
