September 4, 2013 at 7:18 amSaturday I took advantage of Hubby’s late work schedule to go for a long run before the girls (all under 5 years) and I went shopping for fabric to recover a “cheap” antique find. Sunday was another long run before a picnic at the neighbor’s… yeah!! We brought a box dessert and arrived to someone’s home-made version at the picnic… The girls coated the Slip and Slide with soap (to go downhill in the rain), gorged on picnic fare and potato chips, and then we all collapsed at home after eating, socializing, and supervising! Monday Hubby worked and the girls and I decorated for fall, even though they wanted to put up Christmas decorations…
