Three Day Weekend

My babysitter needs the day off, so today I get to take a day off and spend the day home with my boys. Working full time with two little ones, sometimes it feels like the only "vacation" days we get are when the boys are sick or the babysitter needs a day off. After we account for those days, we don't have much time left to take off just for fun. So we've learned to enjoy the days we "have" to take off. We don't have much planned, just puttering around the house. Lots of reading with three of us snuggled up in the recliner. I'll do a little cleaning, maybe list a few things on ebay. I'd like to get some fall decorating done. I'll bake some bread, make tuna salad, and probably one of my boys' favorite desserts--rice krispy treats. Only the best for my family. :) Also, Prince Charming and I celebrate our 11-year anniversary this weekend. We'll drop the boys off at mom's house, and go out for a rare treat; a dinner out that doesn't involve wrappers or cardboard containers. Then we'll hit a used bookstore and maybe walk around the mall for awhile before we pick up the boys again. Very low-key, but that is okay with us.
