Good afternoon all, hope you all had a great Easter weekend and are ready for the week ahead.
I had a fun weekend, but a busy one. We had a lot of family over off and on all weekend and we also hosted Easter Dinner for the family.
While I love having family over and doing giant get togethers I'm exhausted. Haha

::What I am sewing, crocheting, knitting or creating::
Nothing creative this week or next although I probably will try to get some adult coloring time in.
::Looking around the house::
Mostly everything looks fine. I have been doing stuff here and there throughout the day. My youngest is taking a nap as I type this post, and there are some dishes in the sink that needs washed from our lunch.
::What I'm wearing today::
Black Jeggings and a coral long comfy t-shirt I usually wear when I will just be around the house doing chores.
::One of my simple pleasures::
Taking a walk! This is something I should do more of, but I love just taking a walk without having a tight time limit and just gazing around. Taking a look around at even the littlest things like flowers blooming or birds in trees can be so rewarding. It is honestly good for the soul. I always feel better after taking a walk and taking a walk with your kids is even better as they usually point out stuff to you that you may not have even seen before.
::Bible verse, Devotional::

It seems that Leftovers was a common theme for Monday night's dinner!
