Weekend Delights

After waiting, waiting and more waiting...Jon, the girls and I FINALLY went to see Toy Story 3 on Saturday afternoon. I'm thinking Jon and I laughed more than the girls. Barbie and Ken definitely gave me some good laughs!
Saturday night we enjoyed a yummy pizza dinner then played outside until dark. What is a summer evening without catching a few lightning bugs? There are so many lightning bugs out now. Every evening, our woods looks like it's filled with mini twinkle lights!
Simply divine!
First thing this morning, hubs went out to check our apple tree and garden. He came back with flowers and even cut and arranged them in a vase! Later, he noticed our not-so-lovely bananas and suggested I make banana bread. He didn't have to ask twice! Delish! What were the children up to while I baked? The girls got out their ladybug tee pee and thought Henry would definitely make a good indian! We spent all of our Sunday outside working and playing. Laney even invited some fun friends! Laney is ALWAYS collecting toads and we tell her that she HAS to let them be! Ewwww!
Henry was a bit curious though! I made everyone snacks while we enjoyed our afternoon! Cookies rock! And finally, this evening after dinner, I took a solo bike ride (unless you count mace as my trusty companion). Peddling through the countryside, meeting up with a horse and buggy at a stop, listening to the birds, smelling the nearby creek, and feeling the breeze on my face....perhaps it was taking in the deep breaths of air and exhaling all of my stress and worries, but my mind, body and spirit were sure refreshed when I arrived back home.
Kind of getting sprayed with a hose without warning....a lovely rush!

I hope that you all had a delightful weekend!
