I had a pretty relaxing weekend. We didn't spend a lot of money. We did spend a lot of time indoors ripping down ugly wallpaper. But the kids were GREAT about it, mainly because the weather was nice so they spent a large part of it outdoors.

My kids both played soccer yesterday. My five year old is surprisingly really good. He's a really good dribbler and hustler! To the point where we (the parents) have to remind him to let his team mates take the ball every once in awhile!

I love weekends where we as a family can just hang out and chill. What were your simple pleasures this weekend?

Definitely going to our friends' house last night. We just ate pizza and drank some beer, and enjoyed talking and laughing together. The kids had lots of fun too. They'd probably list eating junk food and staying up late as their simple pleasures. It was nice enough for us to walk to their house (they live a few blocks away) so the weather was definitely a simple pleasure too.

Sitting on the deck with dh, sipping coffee and watching the snow melt. We thought spring would never come!

Naps are my weekend simple pleasures. I had a 3 hour nap yesterday and today. It's almost like catching up on the sleep I miss during the week.
