A Weekend at Home

Sunday nights I always feel a teeny bit sad that the weekend is over.  However, I do have Monday mornings off, which I sooo look forward to.  It's nice to sleep in, read, relax with a cup of coffee, or write blog posts.  I love being able to ease back into the work week that way.  This was the first weekend we spent at home in a month.  Most of our family and many of our friends live three plus hours away.  So, when we want to see them we can't just buzz over for dinner.  I love to see the fam, but it's such a treat to wake up (or sleep in) Saturday morning in my own bed.

We didn't have any big plans but we worked on a couple of small projects that have been on the "to do" list for a while.  Hubby cleaned the garage.  I broke out the spray paint and attempted to spruce up a couple of garage sale finds. Pardon the bad photos.  I'm not a photographer. 

I got this glass vase for free at a garage sale.  It was painted pink on the inside.  I wasn't sure if the paint would adhere very well, but I am pretty pleased with the outcome.  Now I just have to figure out what to put in it.


These shelves were $1.  It's hard to see in the photo but they are all different sizes.  I am so excited to get these up on my dining room wall!  I will have to post photos when they're installed.


So, that was pretty much our weekend.  Oh, we did play three rounds of Settlers of Catan Saturday night.  And who won all three matches?  Yours truly.  Although, Hubby did have to point out that he had had a glass or two of wine that night, which kind of burst my bubble.  Sunday night we had a rematch and I still reigned as champion.  Have you ever played Settlers?  Some friends introduced us to it a few weeks ago and we are addicted. 

What did you do this weekend?
