If there's one thing I really look forward to on weekends, it's breakfast. It's my favorite meal and weekend breakfasts are the best! It means I can stay in my pajamas and sip my coffee. It also means bacon! I love a good plate of bacon. It should be it's own food group since I've now seen bacon in everything from soups to ice cream.

But I digress. Weekend breakfast is easily the most relaxed meal we have at home. No one is in a rush to get out the door. My husband and I can finish a cup of coffee before it gets cold. Kellan can leave the table with sticky hands to go play with his Legos because I can't be bothered reminding him to wash up. Everybody gets to relax on weekends!

I sometimes make homemade muffins or pancakes, but my very favorite thing to do is to send Erik to our neighborhood bakery and bring back our favorite pastries. When he returns with the little cardboard box, Kellan greets him like he's Santa at Christmas, jumping up and down with excitement. Too bad I'm too old to do that. Okay, maybe I've done it one time...

Does your family have any fun weekend rituals?
