Weekends should be 5 days



Luca told us the other day that he thought weekends should be 5 days and weekdays should be two- I thought this was genius. This weekend was pretty great though.
We basically spent the whole weekend with Taylor and Craig - She gives a good recap, but I will do the same.
Friday was Marcus' birthday party. I loved getting it all together and planning with my boss- she is good at mixing classy taste of great catering and location with kid friendly bouncers and fun. The party turned out great! Marcus had a blast!! That was the most important thing. Taylor came to take pictures and help with set up- I was so happy to have her there. Thanks Tay. Here are some good ones. . . It was Yankees theme
Marcus loved his cake, but most of all he just wanted to make sure that he got the yankees from the cake- he kept reminding us throughout the party and I literally snatched one from a kids hand after he blew out the candles.
The food was so cute and good
Some favors
Bday table for the kids

The entertainment was spectacular. I was all a great success.


Then we hit up Valentine's Day movie after meeting up with the boys. It was better than expected. Fun to hang out with the boys after a really long week.

Saturday we went shopping for the boys new brown dress shoes. It was fun to watch them search for the perfect shoe for work. They both found exactly what they were looking for- We went to the upper east side to a shoe store and Taylor actually had a gift card for pedicures around there so she TREATED us ALL to pedicures! I will add pictures later because it was a priceless event. Will had to be coaxed, but he LOVED IT! And took every chance to show off his feet through the weekend. Taylor is the best.
Then we headed to our new favorite restaurant- Bianca- yes same one we went to last week for my Birthday dinner. I had a hard time trying something new, but the Lasagna I have ever had. Amazingly impressed again. Thanks Bianca.

Sunday- Nursery lasted a long time today! Kids were nuts!!! after church we walked to Washington Square park to enjoy the slightly warmer weather- we are ready for the snow this weekend though- ughhhhh
Watched Count of Monte Cristo- We had never seen it- gets a 7

So I agree with Luca- Weekends should be 5 days instead of 2 if they were all like this one- sweet and simple and just great.
