The Weekend in Photos
Tags:
Simon reading a Maisy book to Anna.
Anna really enjoying it (and her big brother).
Chris fishing for spring Chinook salmon on the Columbia River.
A place on the floor of our bedroom for a family-slumber-party.
A nap & a stretch or two (or more).
And a bath.
Other weekend memories to remember:
• Picking up some new peony plants at our favorite local nursery that just opened for the season.
• Going on a walk to the park with Anna in the stroller, Simon on his bike, and Lily on the leash.
• Shopping for lettuce and flowers at the Farmer's Market.
• Eating fresh salmon caught in the morning for dinner on Saturday.
• Breakfast early Sunday morning at our local hangout.
• Simon riding his bike with the neighbor kids and looking so, so tall.
• Making him change his clothes to a short sleeve t-shirt and shorts
because the weather was phenomenal.
• Digging in the backyard and dreaming about the changes I want to make out there (more projects).

I did watch a tutorial on it and it did look pretty cozy to hang out like that. Maybe will have to put one on my upcoming birthday wish list...
It helps to know what products other people have luck with. There is SO MUCH out there on the market, you know. Thanks for the feedback. I really appreciate it!

Great weekend!! Love the pics and I wish I could grow peonies but I think they'd burn up here in the south.
