5: Weekends.

I have always loved the weekends -- a time for resting, relaxing, shopping and spending lots of time together as a family.  Of course, now that we're missing an extremely important part of our family, weekends are a bit bittersweet.  Paul and I are putting together a family bucket list, made up of all sorts of activities we want to enjoy as a family once he's back.  Lucky for us, the holidays will be in full swing when he's home, so there will be many opportunities to get out of the house and enjoy our time together.  And, with over 2 weeks of leave (vacation), it will be lots of "weekend" time when he's home!!
