Back at Saturday again folks. Seems like I blinked on Monday and somehow here we are! Great week behind us, but now it is time for a bit of weekend fun!!
This Saturday, we have a family communion about 2 1/2 to 3 hours away from us by car each way. So, I will truly be away from my home most of the day and admitting not checking in here all that much.
Tomorrow is Mother’s Day and also just so happens to be Kevin’s Birthday, too. So, looks like I have my work cut out for me. I will truly be busy both days and should be a fun filled weekend.
So, for that reason, I have decided to take another Sunday off from the blogging world. It worked so nicely last weekend, when Saturday night we had a wonderful date night out with drinks and yummy food, too. And then Sunday we celebrated Cinco De Mayo with Kevin’s family. Yes the irony didn’t escape any of us that a bunch of pasty Irish people were making Mexican dishes and celebrating the day!).
However, after how relaxed and how much I did enjoy last weekend, I have decided that I will be posting up my wrap-ups on Saturday, but no longer posting on Sunday for the foreseeable future. Especially now that the weather is getting so very nice and we are doing more outdoor activities with our family now.
Hope all of you have a very well rested and enjoyable weekend, too. Happy Mother’s Day to all the mothers and mothers-to-be out there, too!! And now it is time to catch up with my weekly recap now!!
On Monday, I previewed next week’s Mommy Blog Hoppers Mommy Cubed topic with a blast fromt he past with my girls’ first step memories. If you haven’t already read it, click here.
On Tuesday, I was so very fortunate and lucky to be featured as the SITS Blogger of the Day. It was a ton of fun and a real hopping party on my site that day. Click here to find out more.
On Wednesday, I decided I would love to share some of my favorites pictures of Emma Lily, Kevin and myself for a real Mother’s Day celebration. To see this, go here.
On Thursday, I divulged my secret passion for the color pink from way back in the day with a review for a hot pink mobile iPhone case and for more on this click here.
On Friday, yet another Finish the Sentence Friday linkup went live with the sentence to finish being, “This summer I plan to…”. To linkup if you haven’t or just to find out what I plan on doing this summer, as well as what others would like to do, too, click here.
And now that another Saturday is indeed upon us, I hope you too have a wonderful, fun weekend. I know that is a loaded sentence and sentiment if you are a mom. As I said earlier, I will be out of my house for most of the day and they only bright spot is no dance this morning, because there just isn’t enough time to go for classes and get to the party. But as always so much to do, so little time to get it all done!!
Also for the upcoming week, another giveaway is coming up soon, as well more Flashback Wednesday action and keep in mind that Finish the Sentence Friday will be happening again for next week’s sentence click here and as always going live this Thursday night at 10 pm EST!! And that is a wrap-up!!

I scheduled a post for tomorrow, but I figured I can catch up on commenting on my friends blogs on Monday, right? Have a WONDERFUL Mother's day π
Janine Huldie says
Oh so true Robin and I just found last weekend to be so very relaxing, so I thought since it is Mother's Day, plus with nicer weather, I like the idea of playing a bit of hokey on Sundays now!! π Happy Mother's Day again to you, too!! π
Dianne Velazquez-Hun says
Happy Mother's Day to you and Happy Birthday to Kevin!!!
Everyone deserves a day off. Taking Sundays off from blogging seems like a great idea. Sunday is an ideal day too. Just relax and spend it with family.
Have a safe trip!
Janine Huldie says
Oh thanks so much Dianne and I couldn't agree more with everyone does need a day off to rest up and relax. And Happy Mother's Day to you, too!! π

Doing the wrap-ups on Saturday works well. I've been trying to take Sundays off but am doing the WAHM series so not this month! You enjoy your little break. Have a Happy Mother's and Kevin's Day! π

I did the WAHM series with Melissa, too and loved it. But I am truly just beat now and kind of happy to be able to take some Sundays off now and have them to myself!! Happy Mother's Day to you, too!! π

Hope you're having a nice trip today and right now it's not raining near us so hopefully you can enjoy some of the Arboretum! I feel like I should be meeting up with you since you're so close today!
