This weekend was a nice weekend at home. Friday night we stayed in and the girls decided to do a little sleepover of their own in the living room. I only mention it because when Scott got up at 4am Saturday to go to work, the girls woke up. They got up about 5 and tried to watch TV. I nixed that fast and got them to come lay down with me. But at 5:45 Lexi declared she was getting up at 6 no matter what. And then they never went back to sleep. Saturday was a loonng day. I think by 10am I had all my chores done.
We went grocery shopping where I had an epiphany about all this dinner cooking. I’m going back to the basics. So I got a chuck roast, chicken breasts, steaks and ground beef for spaghetti that were all on sale. It’s not going to be revolutionary or Pin-worthy but it’s going to be easy.
Saturday afternoon the girls decided Emma was going to give Lexi art lessons. They needed more canvases and with that tidbit, I got them to go to Hobby Lobby with me without a fight. You can see Emma’s latest art from paint lessons on the right and Lexi’s copy-cat. I was just happy they were working together.
I think I had a divine appointment at Hobby Lobby because I got these candle sconces I’ve had my eye on for either side of our bedroom TV. They were 50% off but one of them had some chipping on the edge and they had marked it down already to 50% so I got another 50% off of that. The chipping was no issue at all because it was on the back and on an angle no one is going to see anyway. So I got one for 50% off and the other for 75% off. Amazing. And look!
I LOVE them. The room is really starting the fill in.
Sunday we had church and the girls spent the afternoon with their cousin after lunch. I baked up a storm and did some other odds and ends around the house. It wasn’t an overly exciting weekend but you know when the hot spot on the kitchen counter is entirely clean, it was a good one.
Hope you had a great weekend!
