Weekend Vibes: Brunch, The Pearl & Bumper the Dog.

This is from a few weekends ago but I thought I'd post it anyhow. Weekends are the best, aren't they? Every Saturday Scarlett has horse lessons. While we are waiting for her, Maxwell loves to get out of the car and play with the farm dog. His name is Monster but for some reason, Maxwell calls him Bumper. I think it may have something to do with the fact that when he plays "doggy" with his sister,  he calls himself Bumper. Where the name came from? We may never know....lol. They are just the cutest sight to watch. He plays fetch with him, pets him and walks with him, telling him little Maxwell stories. I mean, you can see how adorable they are by the photos alone.

We had one of those spontaneous Saturdays where we just got in the car and ended up where we ended up! It happened to be at The Historical Pearl in downtown San Antonio. They have a great vibe there. A big grass area where the kids can play along with a splash pad for warmer months. There are little places to grab food and restaurants surrounding the whole area. On Sundays they hold a Farmer's Market that we sometimes hit up.

On this day we grabbed some snacks for the kids and let them run around the green with the other children. Ty and I had a drink and just sat relaxing at one of the tables on the grass. On Sunday, we went to The Rustic to grab brunch. They have my favorite kind of brunch. Just a smorgasbord of dishes to pick from. They call it, "Let's Jam". Usually there is live music playing but we were a little too early on this day. This is another great spot whether you have kids or not. They have a huge outdoor area that the kids can run around and play at while they are waiting on their food. Hanging chair swings, a canoe and the best rustic lit up sign are just a few of the decor pieces that give it's name meaning. I should have taken more photos of the actual area but we have been here quite a few times now and I feel like I've done a lot of sharing of this place. Anyhow, still a great place to go at the Rim in San Antonio.

We ended our weekend how we end most of our weekends, at home lounging outside with the kids. I love Sundays even though it's a reminder that the weekend is over. It's the day that we prep for the week ahead and relax a bit. I feel so relaxed after prepping and listening to some good music for the soul. Anyhow, it's actually only Friday right now so I'm about to go enjoy the weekend again! I hope you do too!!!
