Tuesday morning we slept in and had a lazy morning. No schedule, no rushing about. It was so nice! Our first outing for the day was fishing at Grammy's pond.
Surprisingly, I was the first to catch a bite. Take a look...
It was a small Perch so we just threw it back.
Brandon later caught one too.
The boys both loved being out side watching the fire flies, fish jump, and turtles sunning.
After fishing we stopped off at the house to clean up a bit then headed out to the movies. Our dollar theater does time warp Tuesdays and the tickets are only 75 cents. We let Donaven chose, he picked Rio. It was a cute show.
We were starving after the movie and we let everyone chose there favorite place to eat. I got a Newks Favorite salad to go. Brandon got hot wings from Pizza Hut and a Burger from Burger King. The boys wanted french fries.
With our tummies full we went home and enjoyed our evening together playing games.
It was a really great vacation on a budget. We had spent 96 hours together straight. I didn't have to do dishes or laundry at all. Brandon got to spend some real quality time with his boys. I now have a better understanding on why the General Authorities say that, "Successful families are established and maintained on principals of ....love, compassion, work, and wholesome recreational activities"
Let's all remember that and take a break from work occasionally and work on our relationships with the people that matter the most!
