I love Sundays! A new beginning to each new week!
Our typical Sunday consists of a HUGE breakfast, relaxation and then off to church. We love to entertain and normally we have family or friends over to eat and visit after church. On Sundays we try to keep things real simple. We don’t let the kids watch regular T.V. on Sundays and try to have them focus on either writing in their journals, letters to family, or reading books. We try to make time in the evening to walk the dogs and just enjoy the coastal weather.
Sunday evenings we have family council. It is so nice to sit as a family and discuss any issues or things on our minds. It is a time for Aaron and I to measure where our kids are at and if anything is bothering them. It opens the doors of communication for our family without judgement. It is wonderful to find resolutions as a family if there is something that needs tending too. The kids are very open with us and their trust continues to build in us. We come together as a family and measure where we are at with our goals and the weeks agenda. The kids love when we throw compliments their way or let them know how proud we are of them and their accomplishments.
Aaron and I recently started our own Couple Counsel on Sundays, after family council, that allows us to touch base with one another and where we are at in life. It's allows us to throw whatever is bothering us on the table to hash out. This has become such a valuable tool in the growth of our marriage. I truly enjoy hanging out with my husband and discussing life, our dreams, our goals, and how we can not only better each other but ourselves! This is just one step of many we decided to throw into our lives to not only strengthen our family but add to the enjoyment of our Sunday!
Cheers, Natalie
