Work verus Play?

This weekend was a great weekend. Daddy has been so busy trying to get the house done and I have been busy w/ work that the boys either get to spend time w/ just Dad or just Mom. On Saturday, our entire family was able to spend the entire day together. Although Casey has much remorse for not getting as much work as he wanted to get done this weekend, it was a refreshing weekend to just spend it together. What did we do to get such HIGH remarks for spending time together...spending tons of money at a great event or ride in a car to Sam's and Arby's and help each other put the boys' costumes together? No we didn't need to have to spend a ton of money to have a great day. A simple Sam's Sample day, trip to Arby's to get kids meals (thanks to recent Groupon purchase), and putting our talent's (mommy's sewing and daddy's construction) to make a gumball machine and scuba diver together.

I am so thankful for our neighbor Pat for her use of her camera. I was almost distraught that I was not going to get Halloween 2010 documented through pictures...but thanks to her we have pictures.

What did this weekend teach me? Spend more time as an entire family versus one parent. Another adult allows the conversation to go further both w/ the other adult but with the kids.

Hope you were able to spend great family time this weekend!
