Saturday = Soccer, Service and Some Entertainment

Saturdays are always a fun day that I look forward to. It's time that I get to spend with the family and usually we try to pack a lot in. Sometimes it's cleaning and putting the house back together, sometimes it's shopping, sometimes it's a fun activity, an event for the boys and some days it's all of those things. Either way, it tends to be my favorite day of the week!
Because we had family in town, Logan got some extra cheerleaders at his soccer game.  Auntie Genesis, Auntie Michaela and Uncle Jared all came to watch.  
My friend Lisa decided to host a service project at her house that we got to participate in. We went to the store and brought items and gift cards for turkeys so the boys could make meal bags for the less fortunate. The kids decorated the bags as the first step. 
Then they put one of each item in the bags. 
It was such a good experience for them. I try to teach them that we are very blessed. We have been fortunate to not have to go without basics. I want them to appreciate the blessings we have and service is always a good way to do that. 
We ended the day with mom and boys going to watch Trolls and then we met up with Daddy for dinner. I love fun, productive, meaningful days with my family!
