A Mostly Undocumented Fall Break

Though you wouldn’t know it from my iPhone’s camera roll, the girls were out of school all last week for Fall Break. I barely took pictures or created any Instagram Stories of anything we did, so I guess you could say that I was on a bit of a unintentional social media break. 😉 I can usually enjoy my surroundings and my kiddos while still snapping away, but for some reason last week I found myself completely uninterested in any “documenting”.

We really had a great week though! We enjoyed extra slow mornings in pajamas, crashing in friends’ living rooms for play dates, running out for dinner and a movie with girlfriends, deep cleaning our home, whipping together homemade pizza, snuggling up to watch Netflix, hanging in the backyard most evenings, and hosting dear relatives from Nebraska for a weekend of fulfilling family fun.

{Jamie had Army Reserve obligations the last couple weekends, so we had a good chunk of enjoyable girl time snuggled up in mama’s bed.}
{J & I deep cleaned the playroom one night and donated an entire trunkful of toys the girls long ago lost interest in. Hallelujah.}
{happy hour dinner and drinks before seeing A Star is Born}
{two hours of playing time at Top Golf on a rainy Saturday morning}

Let’s chat!

Do you like to travel during Fall/Spring Break? Or would you rather enjoy the “off” time at home relaxing?

What are your favorite games to play with family, friends, or your children?
