Why Do Weekends Feel Like A Marathon?

Don't get me wrong, I love my life!  I love the activities I fill my life with.  I love my kids and most of their activities too. But somewhere along the way, the schedules of our family made my weekends a little nutso.  This past weekend was a prime example.

Friday the kids had off school.

  • We played at a nursing home with several families
  • I went on a date with Issac to see the new Sonic movie 
  • We went to the County office to finish the boys passport applications
  • Then we took Issac to a party with his friends, Wyatt picked him up later
  • Then we went out to visit Travis's sister at the ranch
Saturday
  • We went on a discovery flight that Travis got as a gift for Christmas 
  • Wyatt took Kody to a party, Travis picked him up
  • I had some church meetings
  • And then we had a stake dance, the boys came and I chaperoned
Sunday
  • I attended Kerrville ward for Ward Conference
  • We all attended our church
  • Had meetings
  • Didn't have meeting for Issac that was cancelled last minute - Hallelujah
  • Stake Choir practice
  • Finally celebrated Vday with my hubby
Now this might not seem too bad, 4-5 events a day should be manageable.  But no when they are each 2ish hours, when there is carpooling or driving on either end, when you consider that normal life and chores need living and doing, it quite frankly crazy time.  

So more than ever I am glad that Wyatt has his license now.  Boom, already paying off in dividends.
