Day 145: Weekend

So far this has turned out to be a glorious weekend.  Beautiful weather, happy boys, and lovely friends.

Originally we were scheduled to go up to Michigan for the weekend, but plans changed at the last minute.  And the amazing things about this is that our empty weekend has turned into a very full and very relaxing weekend all in one.  It is easy for one to easily justify being completely unproductive when one was originally planning on being gone anyways.

We've celebrated birthdays, rejoiced in good news, had red wine with friends in their back yard, and an impromptu lunch with others after church.  Instead of cramming a million plans into one weekend we've had the flexibility to just say "yes" to everything that comes our way.

Today I am thankful for an empty weekend.

That ended up being full of only the good stuff, and the best news is that there is still one day to go.
