Simple Saturday

I had the most delightful day today! Spent a lot of time with my dear hubby in the house that we're renovating on our place. Just the two of us, chatting while we worked. It was so special being together like that...


while the boys played outside on a makeshift slide down one of the snow drifts in our front yard.


I was even invited out for lunch by my dear sister, Tracy, and we spent a peaceful 1 1/2 hours, catching up on our lives. I am so thankful for days like today, everything runs so smoothly and peace and contentment abound.

I also received 2 more blog awards today from my new friend Deborah... Thank you so much!
If you've never stopped by A Different Drum, you should! I have given her two awards recently because I enjoy her blog so much.

So here's what she gave me:

I would like to pass this one on to another hot blog which I enjoy and that would be:
Alicia @ Confessions of a Snowflake.

And this... Marie Antoinette: A Real Person Award.


I would like to pass this award on to Aimee @ Living, Learning, and Loving Simply... I love reading her blog for the realness that she displays there.

Feel free to pass these awards on to whomever you choose, Aimee and Alicia! :o)

Hope you all are having a wonderful weekend.

  7. Oh what fun this sounds like! House renovation, heart filled conversation, and children playing outside! Oh the snow looks very cold there. This weekend it has been lovely here, 55 degrees yesterday and 50 degrees today. We went for a walk to the park. It was so much fun and even nicer to have a break from winter! Stay warm and enjoy the rest of your weekend!!!
