Fundays Weekend-days

We spent the weekend soaking up the beautiful weather and enjoying some family time. Friday night J man went to his dads so Michael and I took Lo to dinner at Litefoot. He fell asleep on the 5 minute drive there, then he woke up and was the best little boy at dinner. We don't take him out much so we stress when we attempt to have nice dinner. We made a great choice that night. Live music on the patio was an extra bonus!



Saturday I spent running errands and working out. Jackson and momma ran to the Wine'ing Butcher in Ashburn to pick up some yummy food for dinner. First off, all their meat is local, or fresh! I don't eat meat really, but when I do it has to be organic/natural/fresh/local. Beef tips! One beef tip is about half the size of a Filet, the meat is tender and juicy but a little more chewy then filet. Anyways, I always grill them pretty perfectly and Saturday Jackson inhaled two of them. He never eats steak, he almost never eats meat, it was a pretty big success. check that place out!

Jackson had a sleep over Saturday night so we woke up Sunday and I made French toast and then we all headed to the park. After the park we decided we would head to the country and enjoy some Great Country Farms/Bluemont action. We have been to both many many times but watching both boys smile and giggle and run and explore and experience, it makes it all very much worth it. Both boys loved the vineyard too, which means we will be going back very soon! The best thing about Bluemont is everyone has kids. The owner, with his two kids and dog, driving in there tractor, instantly start conversation and invite Logan play with his dog and hop up in the tractor. Great atmosphere.

Here are my pics:
 
 
 
Who doesn't like huge cows?
 
 
Michael told Jackson to grab that....

 
J man flipping away on a huge bounce pillow
 
 
I always bounce on the pillow too, I pretend I'm 12 (that's the age limit). Logan deserves to get to bounce too!

 
Someone felt right at home in the wooden castle....

 
And on the wooden truck! He cried when I made him get out
 
 
New big slides, they look cool but they are a really slow. The most exciting part was Jackson wanting to go down the middle slide, the one a little girl decided to climb up. He didn't think that was right and wanted to take her down....we didn't let him :)
 
 
So as he quickly passed by every kid (much smaller) on these bikes and flew around and around and around the tracks, he ended up getting more and more sweaty. This was the end of a dry/clean/non stinky Jackson.
 
 
snacks, shade, wine, ribs, and an awesome view. great way to end the afternoon


Silence and two sleeping boys before pulling out of Bluemont...priceless!


 
 So thankful! Hope you all had a spectacular weekend!
