Norman Rockwell Saturday Afternoon

Yesterday afternoon was a rare occasion...For starters, we didn't have any activities planned, so we enjoyed a family day at home. It was very nice. Actually, our time together started the evening before with a fun walk/ride around the neighborhood. Then, on Saturday afternoon, the girls did some crafts they had wanted to do, and I didn't find any excuses for not doing them. After lunch at home we enjoyed an afternoon of music and fun. The girls each played their instruments and Sam helped them. They are each doing a great job and enjoying guitar and violin. Sam sang them the song that he wrote for me at camp way back when. They thought it was pretty funny. He even wrote a new song for our family today. We wrapped up the evening with playing with the neighbors and watching a new movie. Everyone seemed to have a good time. These are times when I am especially grateful for the family God has given me and reminds me that we need to be deliberate about making more times like these.
