we had one of those weekends that was just solid awesome. the forecast suggested rain through and through but it only sprinkled a few times on friday. we stopped by joe’s twice for a slice and i won’t even tell you how many bakeries we hit up. we lived outside in the cooler weather trading in one playground for the next. the littles stayed up past their bedtimes….although who am i kidding, we have never been good at having strict bedtimes :\ playing games and singing songs around the piano with our papa. the best part, we spent the weekend with family. my sister flew to the city for a few days and another sister came up for the day on saturday. eleanor and samson were pretty happy to have some aunties in town but i think i was the happiest of everyone. thanks so much for coming to town, aunties! let’s book some tickets for winter break, yeah?
What a sweet picture of the kids with their auntie! Perfect family weekend, those are always the best, just happy to see each other, catch up and have a fun time. The piano and songs is my favorite part though, how nice!
You’ve changed your sidebar photo! I love it :) I also love this photo, such joy!

So cute! That’s it – you have totally inspired me to really cut out the TV – there is so much more to do when you turn of the television! Glad to hear you all are enjoying the yellow piano!
That picture is way too adorable! :)
Where did you get Eleanor and Samson’s raincoats? I am looking to purchase a good one for our little guy. Thanks!
This picture just makes me happy.
sometimes its´just good to feel home right where you are.. and with family and friends it´s always easier!

Nothing like a great weekend to put some pep in your step! I just had to comment about the ridiculously adorable face Samson made after testing the juice. It gave me a belly laugh. =)
I love it! i’m happy to say that I shared the same awesome new York city weather WITH YOU this weekend! we explored park slope on sunday, made homemade dumplings (SO good!) and snuggled on the sofa watching the last two eposides of girls. gosh that show is SO weird, and so bad in so many ways, but there’s some sort of connection I feel to those girls, even though I’M not a crazy one ;)
Aw yayyy for a good weekend!! :) What a sweet picture!

Sister time is always the best. I am from a large family like you (I am the oldest of five girls and a boy), and I always feel so much more balanced after family time. Glad you have a good weekend!
What a cute photo! Glad the weekend was so lovely :)
So fun! Hey, Love your new photo to the side.
Ha, I was just looking at the picture on the side of your website the other day and thinking how little your babies looked and how much they have changed. I LOVE the new picture. Glad you had a good weekend! We did too :)

Family really makes it all worthwhile. By the way, your new cover photo is adorable! It’s really Beatles-esqe, which I love. Very Rockstar, and suits you all well. Thanks for sharing.
There is nothing quite like having the perfect weekend! Ours was so relaxing and wonderful.
I am missing my sister! It is always so nice to see your siblings.

How sweet. I wanted to visit my sis for the day this weekend, but we settled for some grandpa time — which is not settling at all. :)

The visit of ours is always a reason for joy right?. I also I have my brother when we are away and thoroughly enjoyed it. Kisses and happy Tuesday.
spending time with family is the best. And I love your new profile picture on the blog! It’s amazing how fast kids grow up…Samson and E are getting so big now. Reminds me of my son. Time flies :)

So so sweet! I love this photo of you with your two cuties and their matching rain coats. Just adorable. I can’t wait until my daughter arrives in a few months and I can spend my weekends playing outside! :) xx
Sisters are the BEST!!! weekends with them are always so special :) What a great photo
You three are so cute together. I love the yellow (rain?) coats!
Just asked you on Twitter but I dunno if you’ll read the mention. So I will try again in this comment because I couldn’t find any mail adress. :( May I take some of your pictures to for a feature on my blog?
The feature will look like this one: http://www.realitaetsbewusst.de/2013/02/theroadishomecom.html – I just want to share your beautiful life with my readers. :) Would be great! <3
So happy to hear you guys had a great weekend. I am loving the new side picture!
Hello! Congratulations for your blog! I love it!!! It has accompanied me very much over the last few months since I became a mummy last April! I have read “Dad is Fat” and really enjoyed it! Are there any other funny and easy books you can recommend (for adults) ;)
Many thanks!!!!
Oh family visits are the best!
Sounds like a lovely way to spend the weekend. It’s always lovely when you get a run of really good days, it makes the not so good ones all seem worth it!
Wow, you and your sister look so much alike!
Such a heart warming photo. I’m glad you had a good weekend! xx
So sweet!! Love when sisters come to visit! XO
<3 !
I love the picture. Those coats are so cheery!!
