So this is what it's like...

We are still getting used to having Tony home on the weekends...for the more than 8 years that we have been together, he has always worked weekends. I'll be honest...it's AWESOME!
Before, he got a few Sundays off a month, but only a Saturday if it was a really special occasion or he was on vacation.
How nice it was today to be like a normal family. We took the kids to a friend of ours' house to watch her husband steer wrestle. It was pretty interesting to say the least, and the kids had such a great time on the tire swing, playing with sticks, having a jeep ride...just enjoying the outdoors. We took the kids to lunch and then went to check out the park where we will be camping. So nice! There is a great park there so we let the kids play and swing.
By the time we got home, after a quick stop at the store, we were all exhausted....but happy! It was a GREAT Saturday....and I see many more of these in our future!
