This weekend we took a deep breath - and enjoyed it!

It was wonderful to have a weekend without the looming of 3 tests and two orals ahead. It changed everything for me - I really did not know that it contributed so much to the anxiety I have (see previous post). So this weekend we let our hair down and relaxed. Although Mr L had hockey early Saturday morning and A had ballet course at the same time , it was as if we sighed a combined breath of happy.

In pictures we:

Spent Friday the afternoon at the school festival - A is a total adrenaline junkie.

The school had Bobby van Jaarsveld in concert - I am not  fan but he gave us a most enjoyable concert. He even sang some CCR! A delightful Friday night.

The clever moms at school imported Stikeez ( a different series) from China and sold it to a great profit for the school

We attended a baby welcoming party for a friend who is adopting a little girl. It was such a relaxed afternoon with the kids splashing in the pool
We had a lovely relaxed early Sunday lunch with my mom at a nursery - lots of space to play and wonderful food too.
Mince pancake - it was so tasty
We also just relaxed at home - made marie biscuit art
And planted some violas - each kid in their own pot.
 How was your weekend?

  1. Sounds divine!!!

    I know it's a good weekend around here when I get to cook or bake :)

    This past weekend I had big plans but all I got to was Konmari-ing the study. It felt GREAT. Not 100% done but about 90% is almost as good.
