All About Family Weekend

This weekend was full of minimal plans so we decided to stay home for the greater part of it, enjoy the decorated house, work on the bathroom renovation and have some family holiday fun! Friday night we took the kids to the lights at the zoo. We bundled up and walked through the zoo all lit up and it was wonderful to be outside, to let the kids run and to enjoy the holiday music and beautiful lights.
The kids definitely needed to burn off some excess energy so they really enjoyed being able to run through the zoo, something they are normally never allowed to do when we go to see the actual animals.

Love you Noey and Linds.

This picture doesn't do this justice. The entire house was lit up and flashed to the beat of the holiday tunes. It was beautiful.

We we got home we quickly changed into our jammies, made popcorn and milkshakes and watched the new Prep and Landing movie.

The kids brought down their favorite blankets and sprawled out on the rug while we enjoyed the movie.

Can you think of a more perfect way to spend a Friday night?
