Weekending



  


Our weekending started on Friday...

Discovering a baby pickling cucumber. Hope for the garden!
Trying to go to the splash & play park in town, but finding it to crowded for the liking of a certain little lady, we came home to splash & play around out back. While I "watered" the trees of course.

Being happy & relived to hear that those I know near the turmoil in the news are shaken but safe.

Reading more of Mrs. Frisby, starting Pippi Longstocking, and thus beginning the bedtimes when I read two chapters of each because they love them both so...

A lazy Saturday with a roast in early, lots of reading, discussions about the reading, Lego building, chatting with my brother over the phone, planning, more reading, a trip to the library with my gal (For more books to read. She checked out a bag full of these.), and watching this after the kiddos were in bed. So informative.

Sunday found us having a late breakfast, spending time on the porch swing, watching the gentle breeze help fuzzy seeds take flight, hiking along the river, making camping reservation for a long trip at the end of summer, and yes... more reading.

How was your weekend? 

Weekending with the lovely Amanda!

    What a weekend, and I'm jealous you have a porch swing. I just have a swing but would love a porch to go with it. Love the blooms you shared in your photos. Great weekend!

    Our weekend was lazy. It rained on Sunday perfect excuse to stay inside and bake. I did sew though. Making a skirt for V and embroidering it as well!

    I LOVED the secret of nihm as a child and look forward to reading the book to my daughter in the near future. pippi is also on my bedtime-chapter-book-reading list for her. a long camping trip sounds wonderful~
