Sheer Relaxation...

This is what our weekend has looked like so far....


It has been so nice in the midst of the busyness to find some time to do nothing! Even though there was cleaning to be done among other things my sweet husband let me spend a few hours doing nothing and enjoying some rest after a very busy week. And not only that....but he did the cleaning for me! I love you sweetheart ;)

Then after that we were able to spend the night doing very little. Pretty much eating, reading, playing a game together and then going to bed early....I know it may sound a little lame but our life has been a little too exciting lately so this was a nice change of pace.

Even though there was plenty on our to do list and lots of things that would have felt great to get done...after having a week away from my hubby and then another full day away on Thursday (I went to Busch Gardens for the day with my sister Charissa, brother Jeremy, and sister-in-law Rachel...it was a blast!) I have realized how much I have missed our "us time" where we just get to be together and enjoy a slow pace of life, and last night was just that kind of night.

In fact this morning as this song played I felt I could totally relate:

Time Well Wasted
-Brad Paisley
It was time well wasted
And there's no way I trade a few more dollars in my pocket I could've spent
For a day I'll never forget
No, I didn't get a thing done
But I sure soaked up every minute of the memory we were makin'
And I count it all as time well wasted

Those leaves were a foot deep in the yard
And 'wash me' was written all over the car
But watchin' movies all day with you
Wasn't on my list of things to do
But we laid on that couch
Girl, we never left the house

(Chorus)
It was time well wasted
And there's no way I trade a few more things that I could've crossed off my list
For a day I'll never forget
No, I didn't get a thing done
But I sure soaked up every minute of the memory we were makin'
And I count it all as time well wasted

(Bridge)
This world spins too fast if you let it
There's always one more thing to do
But lookin' back I never have regretted
Takin' off early or callin' in sick
Or lovin' away a Sunday afternoon

(Chorus)
It was time well wasted
And there's no way I trade a few more dollars or things crossed off my list
For a day I'll never forget
No I didn't get a thing done
But I sure soaked up every minute of the memory we were makin'
And I count it all as time well wasted

I count it all as time well wasted


Note to the reader: No, we didn't get a dog. The dog pictured above (Lizzie) is just ours for the next week and a half while her owners are on vacation. We are really enjoying her company though ;)
