Busy Weekend Stuff


Phew! What an exhausing weekend we had. With the 2 retreats out of the way (Thank you husband for taking one of those upon yourself!), I can get going on Noah's 1st Communion gifts and maybe get myself something to wear. I can't keep wearing the same two good outfits forever... or can I?

We got started on the vegetable garden and did a lot of yard cleanup. The windstorms left a mess of pine branches all over the yard and driveway, of course all this after I originally cleaned up from winter. So this is just doing it all over again. And the buds on the trees dropped their little red jackets everywhere too, so there's sweeping to be done. The kids had out their bubbles and sidewalk chalk, N. climbed trees and B. carried worms around like pets. Two nights in a row the bathrub was icky grunge water after scrubbing up the kids.

We had our first campfire last evening. We had dinner out there~ hot dogs, roasted yellow squash, mushrooms, and garlic,~ all roasted in foil over the fire. And I served up bowls of strawberry shortcake for dessert.

N. is sick at home today. Very bad sore throat and he was crying this morning, so I kept him home. He's resting and watching the movie Bolt beside me. Hubby has gone fishing and B. is still asleep. I have paper work to do and I am procrastinating by blogging instead.
I'm goin', I'm goin'.....
