I think we have needed a weekend like this for a while. I'm not sure what I loved most. The scattered rainstorms throughout the whole weekend was something we LOVED...but I think the constant family time came out on top.
Friday night we celebrated the opening of the Olympics with my sister and her family. We tried Feijoada (Black bean stew), Brigadeiros (cheese rolls), Pão de queijo (truffles), and Guarana (soda). It was all quite tasty and the ceremony was really long.
We headed south on Saturday to enjoy the party at daddy's work. The boys look forward to this all year long. They have a barbecue and as much pop as you can drink. Plus games and a zorb ball. We came home and watched some Olympics and then played a family soccer game.
Sunday morning we picked some produce. Then made some beef stew and rolls before heading to church. We got in our Fast Sunday picture but not before the boys broke their fast and grabbed a roll. :) We played a little soccer (again) and baseball and just soaked up the cool weather, rain, and gorgeous sunset. It felt good to be outside all evening.
I want to got back to the weekend.
