Coming off of a weekend without kids and I can’t wait to see their squishy little faces again!
We had a WONDERFUL weekend, including tennis, yummy food and laughter with the hubby, fun friend time and one of my best friends giving birth to a precious baby girl!
We also put together a little surprise for the boys! We were BUSY but it was fabulous!

490. Put on then, as God’s chosen ones, holy and beloved, compassionate hearts, kindness, humility, meekness, and patience, bearing with one another and, if one has a complaint against another, forgiving each other; as the Lord has forgiven you, so you also must forgive. And above all these put on love, which binds everything together in perfect harmony. ~Colossians 3:12-14

What did you do this past wonderful weekend?
I'm Erin, a wife, boy mom x 3, writer, and runner in Nebraska! I'm excited to share all my favorites relating to faith, family, fashion, and fitness in this space! Enjoy! 
i would love to see the pic of the boys faces when they saw those bunk beds…so fun! that sweet crocheted hat is just precious. How are you liking “day of war” just recommended it to a friend who has a 12 yr old brother. is it too old for an adolescent boy? thanks for sharing your thanks.
LOVE the pics of the boys running through the sprinklers! Our weekend was as NOT busy as yours was busy! Hubs went fishing twice (once with Kiddo, once without) and I stayed home and did NOTHING. I was getting over the BUSY week we had just finished. : )
Those bunk beds look great. What a fun weekend!
I love that crochet hat. Are you able to share the pattern?
