Two weeks ago, Wesley came downstairs singing "Today I don't feel like doing anything. I just want to stay here in bed." I looked at him and said, "Why don't we do that one day!" So...couch day was born!
We looked at our calendars and found the next Tuesday/Thursday that we didn't have anything scheduled between 9 -1. Then we set "Couch Day!"
This morning, Wesley dropped the boys off at school and I made breakfast. We then plopped down on the couch with our breakfast and coffee and a huge blanket! We cuddled up and watched a movie ("The Campaign" with Will Ferrell) and a few extra funny episodes of the Office. Around 11:30, I got up to make us lunch but then retreated back to the couch until we had to pick up the boys at 1:00.
It was such a relaxing morning and so much fun to not have to worry about doing anything! Usually, we feel guilty for not getting tasks accomplished but we had carved these four hours away for us weeks ago and there was no guilt here! We just enjoyed ourselves and the quite time together!!
Looking forward to Couch Day 2013 already!!!
