I want an everlasting summer weekend. Can someone please make that happen for me? You’d think that weekends wouldn’t matter much in these parts because (a) Meeker goes to work every blessed day of the week and (b) I go to work none of the days of the week. But for some reason – it matters and weekends are highly anticipated and thoroughly enjoyed.
This one happened to be our five year wedding anniversary, so we celebrated with some brunch on Saturday morning (I had a giant cinnamon roll and forty-six cups of coffee), went to the farmer’s market, ate some peaches, Meeker taught Adrienne how to do a back-bend like an Olympic gymnast, I (sort of) taught Adrienne to count to ten (one, two, five, elmo, nine), we pulled a gazillion cucumbers out of the garden, ate at least three heads of kale, and just loved the heck out of life.
What an amazing and beautiful weekend. And congrats on 5 years!
I will take a cinnamon roll and your child. I have six zucchini in my fridge that need eatin’,
man, i’m dreaming of that weekend too! especially the 46 cups of coffee…momma’s tired!
If 5-years = 46 cups of coffee, I can only imagine what the next year will hold. What a lovely weekend!
Sounds like the PERFECT weekend! I spent mine loving the last FREE week before I went back to work today, and getting lost on trains in Seoul with my Mama~ all in all, pretty perfect too (minus the 46 cups of coffee…I need those!!)
savor those weekends, they sound priceless! and Happy 5 years to one amazing and blessed couple.
xxoo
Your posts about summer always make me feel happy… and remind me to enjoy every single day!

And what a beautiful post!
Sounds like such a great weekend…Happy anniversary to you and your husband!
I love it! Congrats on your 5 yr anniv.! And that baby girl of yours gets cuter and cuter every day, if that’s even possible! Nom Nom on the giant cucumber
I also LOVE that you’re a hyperbole queen like me. I too enjoyed 46 cups of coffee this weekend 
Happy Anniversary! What a great way to celebrate
Happy 5 years. Pretty amazing. I feel the same way as you – I hardly work and my hubby works crazy long days, but I still feel like the weekend should be the weekend!! I wish I had a garden and giant cukes like you, but that’s a work in progress still
Happy anniversary! I’m glad you had such a lovely weekend.
PS: A’s little denim dress is so very cute. And that pic of her noshing on a giant cucumber made me giggle.
Happy Anniversary! Looks like you had a great weekend!
I can understand why you like your weekends so much. They are filled with love and cuteness. Your wedding photos look gorgeous. “..five, elmo, nine…” hahahaaa Good girl, baby A!
Love the wedding album shot.
That picture of Adrienne standing in her stroller cracks me up.
In garden envy right now. The only thing I have been able to “harvest” are teeny tiny fresno chiles, and two jalapenos. That being said my pumpkin plant from last year somehow mutated and this year I have about vie pumpkin plants going crazy. So I am hoping what I lacked in savory veggies I will make up for in delicious pumpkin.
Happy Anniversary!
Five pumpkin plants, not vie. Apparently I haven’t had enough coffee yet.
I adoooooooooooore this post, and you. Can you take me to wherever you got those pancakes when I visit CO?
I love those weekends that you can really just relax and hang out. Happy anniversary!
Happy belated anniversary, Katie! What a fun weekend to share. My weekends are cherished too, it’s the only time I can visit my mom.
hahahahah the cucumber shot. love. i want your weekend.
Yay, I’m glad you had a good anniversary!
Hope you had a fabulous anniversary weekend!
I am a big fan of summer- but now that I’m not a teacher anymore, I will actually enjoy every other season.
I love fall… I’m just not a big fan of the season that follows.
ew barf. I know…let’s not even talk about it.
Happy anniversary to you! Sounds like such a lovely weekend.
Ahaha – I love you guys. Happy, happy, happy anniversary to two of my most favorite people in the world. I wish I could’ve been there to babysit A for you while you celebrated!
Also – I think one, two, five, elmo, nine should be the new way to count to ten. It’s way more fun.
Love you tons friend!
Beautiful post, and sounds like a beautiful weekend
Happy Number 5! That picture of Adrienne going after the zucchini is pretty awesome! ha!
Happy anniversary!!! Love you friend! Looks like an amazing weekend you had!

Happy belated anniversary! What a lovely weekend.
Congratulations on your 5-year anni! All of your pictures of A just melt my heart.
These pictures just made my day. Every one of them. Especially little Baby A biting into a big ol’ zucchini…too cute!
Sounds like a beautiful weekend! Happy anniversary!
Hubby and I have the same anniversary date, and # of years! We got married at Clearwater Beach in Florida at sunset–one of the most beautiful times in my life! Happy Anniversary! We celebrated by attending my college reunion and meeting up with my college roommate who hails from Grand Junction, buying a new bedroom set, and having a lovely romantic dinner! Love the pic of you and Meeker! Baby A is just the most adorable ever–always look forward to seeing her sweet little face covered in food–makes me happy! Bless your adorable family!
