Friday Favourite Moments #16 (On A Monday)

I'm currently enjoying the perfect Sunday. We have very little on the schedule so I am doing a little house cleaning, a little organizing, a little blogging, and a lot of "getting things done" all while I drink tea in my pajamas! Did I mention it's the perfect Sunday?!? Plus, I didn't have to set an alarm this morning which just makes it all better.

Below are my Friday Favourite Moments for last week.

1) Baked good from a co-worker

A few of us had an unofficial bet going about a student at work and I won! Sometimes you have to find the fun in frustrating situations and, in this care, I happened to guess right. So my co-worker baked me cranberry scones which absolutely made my morning. They were soooo good!

 

2) Readathon weekend

It's been awhile since I've done a readathon, and I only found out about this one about four days before it happened, but I read all day last Saturday and it was the best thing I could have done. I read three books, we had charcuterie for supper, and the kids even joined me in a "walking and reading" picture. I will write more about the readathon later, but it was definitely a favourite moment in my week.

3) Sam's school trip

Sam was actually gone for three days last week on a school trip. While I didn't love having to drop him off at school at 7:00am on a Sunday, I loved that he had so much fun! His class went to Point Pelee National Park in southern Ontario and they slept in yurts. It was a geography trip and Sam was in a yurt with three of his closest friends. I'm so glad he had such a good time, even if he did sleep for sixteen hours straight when he got home!

 

Another favourite moment from the week was when Sam came home and I got to hug him again!

 

4) Pansy planters

On Sunday morning I helped hand out pansies for the dance fundraiser. I got a hanging basket and a pot for myself. I am so happy with my pansies!!! And having our pot of pansies on our outdoor table makes it feel like spring is actually here! (Even if I am bringing them in every other night due to the threat of snow. Argh.)

5) Rachel baked biscuits

I made a big pot of soup last Monday and Rachel independently baked biscuits to go with them. She was happy to do this and I was happy to enjoy warm, buttery biscuits with our soup. Win-win!

6) Taxes are finished!!!

   There is no picture to go with this one but Dave and I did our taxes on Thursday night. It always hangs over our head, and then they're usually really easy to do. And we got a refund which is really great!!!

So those were my favourite moments from last week. There's a lot going on this week in blog world so I'll see you back here again tomorrow!
