WEEKEND SHENANIGANS

since austin is in the midst of finals he's been leaving early for school & coming back late, so i've been working hard on keeping cedar & i busy. it's pretty easy for us to stay home & play, especially with how hot it's been here, but we both get tired of being inside all the time. this weekend was no different, we were out & about as much as we could manage & it was a really fun weekend. cedar & i spent friday running around retiro, going to as many playgrounds as he could find & going to the rose garden which is amazing & deserves it's own post. that night after cedar was asleep & austin was studying in the kitchen i watched one of my favorite movies in the world: legends of the fall. have you seen it? if not, you definitely need to. it's gut-wrenching & makes me cry every. single. time. it's amazing. saturday we went to brunch at this cute little spot called the toast & then austin went to school to study while cedar & i met our friends to play & for some ice-cream which is always a good combination.

saturday night i went out with some of the moms from a playgroup i take cedar to on wednesdays & stayed out far too late. i don't got out a whole lot at night without cedar, so i always forget what "going out" entails here in spain. i figured i'd be back by midnight but these moms had a different idea & we didn't even get home until 2:30, which was an early night for the rest of them, & i was exhausted! i don't know how they do it. they were telling me how they normally would stay out until 4 a.m. & how it's normal for people to stay out going from place to place until 6 a.m. guys, spain really knows how to party. it was fun going out & getting to know these moms some more. most of the time i don't get to chat a whole lot at playgroup cause everyone is chasing their kid, so it was nice to sit down & get to know them a bit more. it's so much fun too cause everyone is from different places, there was someone from germany, uruguay, scotland & england. i love learning about what life is like in each of these different places & how we all connect here in spain through our kids. it's pretty cool when you think about it.
^^you know, for when you want to go to the bathroom with your friend
hope you all had a good weekend!
