Weekend Outdoors

in #weekend6 years ago

The weather has been very nice this weekend in my area of California and so we have doing what we spend a lot of weekends doing - spending time outdoors.

Here is a picture of Kendra hanging out on a blanket, while Jacob is playing in the dirt with some trucks in the background.

Life is often going at a very frantic pace, so times like this where we can be outside in the sun, slow down, and simply hang out and play are very refreshing. Being outside also allows Jacob to be a bit more wild, as things in the house can break, but outside, there is more freedom to be wild and crazy, or I guess you would call that being a boy.

We had some cousins over for a little bit yesterday as well, and the kids ended up starting to play in the hose and with buckets, which gave me an idea to bring out the water ballons! We then spent the next hour getting soaked from flying water balloons. My fingers are sore from tying 100 plus water balloons! I wish I had got more pictures of the action, but we were having too much fun so we only got one picture as they were leaving (after they had changed into dry clothes):

It has already been a refreshing weekend, and I still have some golf to watch!

Hope you are having a good weekend as well.

I have to be honest, living in So Cal, I get lazy about looking at the weather forecasts. So today's beautiful weather caught me by surprise! It was incredible. Looks like you spent it the best way possible!

Time out of time is essential for wellbeing (for me at least). The playtime and fun and slower pace is such a blessing, glad you and the family are taking advantage.

Isn't it great when we as modern humans can tap into our primal brains and just "be" outside?

There's nothing like spending time outdoors and sharing with family, children and friends. To enjoy that fresh air that nature gives us and the radiant sun is priceless. Life is one so it is always good to take moments like this to share with children and at the same time it is good for them because they are also a little distracted, and to leave a little stress of work this is an excellent option. You can see that everyone had a great time and they enjoyed it a lot, that can be seen in the faces of the children and what you write about. Excellent friend @brian.rrr, moments like these are worth penan and are marked for life, as young children never forget those moments when they have fun with their friends and parents. Hopefully you can have more moments like these from now on.

Fun times! Happy to hear you got some quality time in. Life gets so busy that it can really takes planning to spend moments with loved ones. Glad you got it.

wow u guys really had fun

Good thing you have had a fun day, the important thing is to enjoy your loved ones and not so much the time you dedicate but the quality of that time is the most important. And of course you can plan to spend quality time with yours and it's nice to know that you've had it. regards

Hello Friend how are you? I was a little busy at work and an event that I had at work will soon be published. The important thing is to enjoy with family and rest the weekend I spend it resting I had a very busy week

I also enjoyed my weekend with family and friends the truth was very good, that is the idea to enjoy as much as possible since time passes very fast and also the work consumes us, beautiful everyone has a beautiful family

Those moments are the best reward for so much work, when the weekend comes for you to share with your family you will say it was worth it those children are beautiful!

it is important to have family time , to make memories , thank you for the up votes as well @brian.rrr xx
