Slow Down Saturday

Our week of holiday is coming to an end.  It's been great sleeping in (until 7:00 some days!) and moving slowly in the morning.  Kids have loved playing in the house.  We've been to a lot of parks.  We've eaten a lot of biscuits.

We still have 1.5 more days of the weekend - our friends are flying home tomorrow.  Everyone will miss them a lot.  I am musing on visiting them next spring or the following.  11 hour flight would be impossible now, with a 2 and 4 year old, but I imagine it will be easy with a 3 and 5 year old....?

The rest of our October weekends are filled with fun adventures, pumpkin picking, halloween parties, and more and more birthday parties.  

We've made a simple meal plan to start the week:

Monday: Slow cooker veg on pasta (R) 

Tuesday: Bangers and Mash (A)

Wednesday: Eggs on toast (R)

Thursday: Carbonara (A)

Friday: Fish & Rice & Veg (R)

We have one more day of weekend to enjoy first.  So many parks! So many Kids! And Indian food tonight too.  

Holidays at home are the best.  Why can't I take maternity leave when my kids are 2 and 4??
