weekend love-family time is the best!

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Chalk, park days, paint, endless dancing, these are the joys of having a toddler. I couldn't be happier.
The weather has been lovely here in Colorado, and so we spent a lot of our time outdoors again this weekend.  Besides being outdoors, we did some reading, and crafting (Paint/beaded sun-catchers).
We also did some fun activities on my daughter's easel.
 
We enjoyed planting some new flowers, my daughter painted a clay pot for her very own seeds.
We added a few seeds in her pot, this way she can enjoy helping me when I go out to water my plants she can water hers as well. (Something she really enjoys doing) :) I  did some crafting while sitting out on the back porch. I worked on my mason jar lantern.

My husband made us some delicious chicken quesadilla's on the grill, and jalapeno poppers. He is taking two weeks of leave starting Monday, so that might explain his overly cheerful mood. Family time is always the best! We plan on taking our daughter to the Denver children's museum, and to the aquarium again during his leave.  I've been working on more of my card making so that I can have a few available for when I open my online shop. My husband has been very supportive through it all.
I hope you all have had a lovely weekend with your loved ones as well.
Thank you to all my lovely readers who come by and leave such kind, inspiring messages!

    Yes! Family time is the best but I do give you a lot of credit for all the joy you share because toddler time can be a challenge as well. You're a happy inspiration :)

    Jayne, thank you. I must say I agree, toddler time can also be very challenging. Right now we are going through a few tantrums, but seem to have them under control. :)
