Sundays.
Such a favorite day!
I get to be with my people!!
And we have had BEAUTIFUL weather for our Sunday family days this summer!
Once my brother, sister and I were grown, my Mom and Dad used to make Sundays a family day too!
We would go to their house for dinner, go for walks, go and get ice cream, and play games.
Our big kids, especially Kayla, remember those times.
I hope our grand children always remember Sunday family day too!
We have settled into a routine of having lunch together after church on Sundays and then spending the whole day together.
If evening comes and everyone is still here, we put pop some popcorn and set out some snacks!
I would keep feeding them all night long and breakfast too if they would stay, ha, ha!
I think this photo of Chad shows my feelings about family day perfectly!!!
This was the first Sunday of May, and a gorgeous day!
When I saw the weather forecast, I asked my hubby if he would grill lunch for us, and he is always happy to use his blackstone!!
So we had burgers with the fixings, salads and cookies for dessert.
It was a HIT!!
We brought the picnic tables out front to be in the shade.
I have dreams of our deck space being something better – time will tell – but it is in the full sun all day long and it makes it hard to enjoy it!
Just look at all of these sweet faces!!!
We were just missing the soon to be bride and groom who were on a zoom call with the DJ for their wedding making plans with him!!
We had the best day just BEING together!
Sundays keep us connected and truly bring our dreams to LIFE!!!
Sometimes we have business to attend to – like hair trials for the upcoming wedding!!
I sometimes make a list in my phone for Sundays of all the things I need to ask Kayla!!
Now I will be doing that for Kamryn and Addie Mae too!!!
I feel like when our day ends like this, it is just the Lord saying “This is the Lord’s doing; it is marvelous in our eyes.” (Psalm 118:23)
What a kiss from God these skies are!!
This past Sunday I had to cancel family day because of my health – but guess what?
Grant and Kamryn hung out here with us, Scottie and Addie stopped in and brought me flowers, and Kay showed up with some kiddos in tow to bring me soup and a treat.
Goodness, I don’t deserve ANY of them!!
I LOVE SUNDAYS!!!
I would encourage you to think of a good tradition to start and JUST DO IT!!
Maybe it could be Sunday Family Day for you too!!!
