I haven’t been home much this week. Thanks to my parents living on the same property that we do, my husband and I were able to get away for a couple of days. We both needed this getaway so much. We just enjoyed relaxing, thrift store shopping and discovering new restaurants.
In two weeks we’ll be starting school. I love starting a new school year – everything is so fresh. However, I know that there will come a day (or even days) when I just don’t want to do it. This post has some good ideas for how to take a refreshing break before getting back to it.

My children love lemonade. I’m hoping to try this recipe soon so they can have a healthy lemonade. We all need more probiotics in our diets to help keep our guts healthy.
Healthy homemade lemonade ~ packed with probiotics and the kids love it!
This is something else I want to try with my children.
The fall can be a busy time of year with the children going back to school and all the holidays to prepare for. Don’t forget your husband though during these busy times.

I hope you all have a happy weekend and enjoy the last few days of summer.

I’d say “sewing” is good for MY health :).
I love getting away with Pierre and we hope to get away again before the baby comes. I’m thinking a non-plane trip (haha) to maybe Dallas or somewhere close. Even a day trip is refreshing but isn’t it nice when you have teens who can babysit! Love that Em is a little momma when I’m gone :).
The German pretzel recipe looks good but the cheese spread – couldn’t find that part of the recipe…would be good to find different dips to put with them.
I’m already looking towards Sept and getting my fall decor out of the attic. Love this time of year! 🙂

The days when all of your babies are little is so hard, but once they’re old enough to care for themselves and any extra littles are so nice. Now I look at moms with all littles and wonder how they do it. I guess we all just do what needs to be done. 🙂
I love this time of year too, but I can’t believe it’s almost time for fall decor!

You’re welcome.
I don’t have a spider phobia as bad as some, but they’re certainly not my favourite.

Those 7 Lifesavers all seem so familiar 🙂 I think I’ve done all of them at one time or another in the past couple years.

I think I’ve done a lot of those too. Sometimes my OCD has a hard time taking time off. I let the schedule rule too much, but I’m slowly learning that we accomplish more after a little break.
Why am I not surprised that you like German food? 🙂
