A long Weekend...Monday Menu...and a busy week

After a nice family long weekend, we are all rested. Friday night was Hubby and my anniversary of our first date 17 years ago. Hubby took me to a party at a trailer campground park in the woods along the river.
So Friday night we piled the family into the truck and headed in the rain into the woods for a drive. We took the long way around and went to the trailer park( that is not there anymore) but still went along the water and explained to the kids, all about our evening. They love hearing stories. :) we came home around 1030 and we all went to bed.

Saturday it rained all day and I spent most of my day driving my parents, around.
We had a lovely BarBQue Saturday night of those tasty burgers I had posted earlier last week.  We had homemade fries and corn on the cob with it. YUM!

Sunday the sun shined and we spent the day outdoors, it was great, we went weeding, got the pond ready, and put all the garbage at the road for our special collection large items.
We BarBQued  Sunday night again, pork chops, potatoes in foil, and macaroni salad.
A friend popped in for a quick visit and we settled in with the family with some snacks, and watched Alaska the last frontier.

Monday it rained again, we all slept in, and had a wonderful brunch. Justin went fishing with the neighbour for the day, and the girls and I house cleaned and cooked. We made a pot of homemade soup with a soup bone that I had taken out of the freezer. We also put on a big old pot of meaty pasta sauce. We put bread on to rise. We made malassos cookies. We cooked some penne pasta   And made a green toss salad.


Hubby spent most of the day sawing lumber that we have a order for.

We all settled in early because it was back to normal again.
