Our Easter Weekend was busy but so much fun!
Friday, I hung out with Dad all day. We went to Kohls, to Ross, and to Target before coming home and binging on The Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt. Seriously one of the funniest shows ever.
Friday night, Jackson, Byron, and I went on a date. We went to Cracker Barrel and to see Furious 7. I bawled like a baby at the end. Seriously, you need to see it.
Saturday was the busiest of days. We had an Easter Egg hunt at church, but before I went there, I had to go get more craft supplies, get groceries, unload groceries, and then get to the church. The craft went really really well, and Jackson and I even made one, too. ;)
Saturday afternoon, we went to Home Depot to get supplies, and we built a new fire pit in place of the one we've been using for years. Side note, if you've never shopped somewhere like Home Depot with your best friends.... do so. It's hilarious.
Sunday was Easter and Jackson's Daddy's birthday. We went to church for a great Easter sermon, had steaks for lunch, opened presents, and went home and napped. Sunday was quite a great cap on a full weekend.
I can't wait to see all of your Easter recaps!!
Our Winter was busy, then came to a complete halt for the ice nonsense that tore through Nashville. I'd be lying if I said I didn't love every moment of it, though. It was full of cuddles, movies, coffee and hot cocoa, sweaters and boots, and best friend time.
Here's how we did on our Winter Checklist! Almost all of them were crossed off, and the one that should have been a given... well... we just got too busy. We didn't realize we hadn't seen the lights at Opryland until we drove past and they were taking them down. It was tragic and I may have cried ugly tears:
Put up our tree and decorate it the day after Thanksgiving
Make our Traditions Lists
Go see the Opryland Christmas lights on December 23rd
Build a Gingerbread House
Get Matching Pajamas for Christmas Eve wearing!
Go to the Jellystone Christmas Drive-Through Light Show
Slow Down and Enjoy
Take More Pictures
Invest in Christmas Decor
So, without further adieu, our spring checklist (maybe if my list is shorter I'll cross everything off):
Camp the Crap out of Spring
As mentioned in a thousand lists before, we have an awesome tent and I love camping. I want to camp with Jackson, make hobo packs for dinner over a campfire, gaze at stars and maybe fish a bit.
Spring Cleaning!
I plan to deep clean our kitchen, our bedroom, our bathroom, purge everything we don't use or need, and declutter our lives!
Visit the Nashville Farmers' Market
We have lived here our whole lives and have never been to the Farmers' Market. I can't wait to wake up early on a Saturday and go!
Spend Time Outside
Jackson loves frisbee, football, and being outside. How much fun would it be to go to the park, throw a frisbee, fly a kite, feed the ducks, etc.? I also plan to go to the Zoo and spend time hammock-ing.
Dye Easter Eggs
We haven't done this since our Senior Year of High School. We were tiny babies. It was so much fun!
Take More Pictures
I can't wait to see the green and flowers and sun! It's my goal, while spending more time outside and doing fun things, to take pictures to document it! I've been okay at it lately, so let's hope I can keep up as life gets busy!
