Over the course of many, many years, I have given up on the fact that I will have a day all to myself. Instead I suggest trying the following tips to help Simplify Saturday family style!
1. Have daughters? Make it a spa day. Most salons offer manicure and pedicure services for young ones at a substantial discounted rate. Pampering does wonders for even the busiest of children.
2. Family afternoons. In ideal weather – head out for a long, slow walk or a trip to the park. Finish it up with a $1 vanilla ice cream cone {available at most drive-thru restaurants and convenience stores}.
3. Make it a takeout and movie night! Pick a family friendly feature that even mom and day will enjoy. Order in a pizza or pickup subs. Keep it simple and easy to toss away leaving the evening to spend with your family instead of cleaning up after them.
