I love Saturdays. Seriously. LOVE SATURDAYS.

It’s my favorite day for so many reasons. I always look forward to this day of the week every week no matter what. Today was a pretty typical saturday that exemplified why I love this particular day so much.

Reason I Love Saturday – Mom Time

Every Saturday morning I spend time with my mom. I love my mom to death and can tell her anything so spending time with her is like spending time with a mom and best friend. This morning we went to breakfast and picked up a few things at the store before heading back to her house to babysit.

Some Saturdays we have breakfast or just coffee, sometimes lunch, sometimes we work on projects, sometimes we go to garage sales. No matter what we do it’s my favorite part of Saturday and something I look forward to all week.

Reason I Love Saturday – Volunteer Time

Most Saturdays I try to squeeze in some time for volunteering in one way or another. Sometimes that is helping with a 5k race or working on a long term volunteer project I’m helping with.

Today it happens to be a two hour shift for Christ Feeds, an event at my church for World Food Day where we will package 286,000 meals for Tanzania. I’ve talked a lot about food on here and realize how blessed I am to have an abundance of food. It makes me happy to help in a small way to deliver food and nutrition to kids who need it.

Reason I Love Saturday – Cartoon Time

I’m such a fan of cartoons and Saturday is the perfect day to watch them. Some of my favorite shows are the cartoons for adults – Family Guy, Bob’s Burgers, Archer. I usually squeeze some cartoon time into my Saturdays either when I first wake up, during the lazy afternoon, or before I go to sleep.

Today I’m watching cartoons while I type up this post!

Reason I Love Saturday – Fun Time

The rest of Saturday is usually filled up with whatever I feel like doing for the day. Usually this includes taking JuJu to the dog park to play, going to the gym, or hanging out with friends. The typical things I love to do!

Today’s fun includes JuJu cuddles and park time and hang out time with friends. It is the perfect mix of fun and happiness. I love Saturday, don’t you? :)
