The Simple Life

Today was a good day. Weekends are my favorite time since my husband is home usually. Yesterday we both worked together to unpack more of the boxes and get our new place to be more of a home. We also went to lunch and a movie with the kids and friends. Today we went and got our family pictures done :D My husband doesn't fully understand why it is important to me but he still does it. Family pictures have always been a big thing in my family, my grandmother had years of them hanging all over her house. It helps me feel close to my family no matter how far away from them I may be, (and I am usually at least 12 hours or more from family).  Then we ewent shopping at the thrift store. One thing we both have in common and we hope to instill in our children is that just because its older and used does not make it worthless. Sometimes it makes it even better! So now we are siting at home eating dinner and relaxing. He is watching his football game (mine was earlier in the day) and I am catching up on some of my shows online.  Our son is watching a movie in his room and little girl is playing on the floor, teaching herself how to crawl.  The simple things are the things I have learned to value the most and to never take for granted!
