We said goodbye to my MIL yesterday, after a lovely afternoon with Scott's family. His brother and sister-in-law and their two teenage boys live in town, but we don't see them very often, so it's nice to catch up.
The boys played kiddie golf and rocked out with Wii Guitar Hero (okay, so I did a little rockin' of my own -- LOL). And then we gorged on brownies, which I rarely make, but were SOO good.
We've got another busy week planned, before Scott's spring break begins and we try to chill out a little and prepare ourselves for Easter.

ReplyDeletealright- sigh - now i'm 'motivated' to go plan my menu for the week...
: )
That's a great photo of Memaw with her boys!
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely picture of the family!
ReplyDeleteYummy, the menu looks delicious!
I have my own menu posted on the fridge but my husband picks which meal he wants for the day since he is picky about his 'craving' for the day LOL.
I just got a Wii a few days ago, yay I am "hip with it" now LOL.
Now it's time to beat my husband at bowling (again) teehee!
Now that is what I call a well rounded and delicious sounding menu.
ReplyDeleteAnd ditto on the brownies. There is nothing quite like a really good truly home-made brownie, is there?
Great family photo...and I'm impressed, not only are you menu planning, you'er POSTING the menus. Awesome.

Hi There
ReplyDeleteI wanted to let you and your readers know about a giveaway I'm hosting this weekend for a Chinese Batik Bible Story telling cloth. It would be a great tool for an unschooling/homeschooling mom. You can find it here: http://burningbushes.org/
Thanks so much for the lemonade award a few weeks ago. It came at a busy time for me so I did not get to take the action I wanted to in response.
The dishes sound dee-lish! Great picture - you have a good lookin' family. Just found you by way of Homeschooling Freedom blog - have a great day!
ReplyDeletemmmm, sounds like a yummy week. You asked about organization on my blog....I'm not the best organizer. We do have a lot of bookshelves where I keep everything. I try to keep the girls' work and my ideas in binders. I also carry a notebook around with me everywhere I go to jot down ideas and inspirations. I wish I could be more help, but I live in a chaotically oganized way.
ReplyDeleteYour plans look yummy! My plan this week? Just get by. . .
