Friends, Family & Food

This weekend was so good. Friday night Garth and I went grocery shopping, made dinner, and settled in for a relaxing night of Bond movies.
Saturday we slept in and then cleaned up. We made lots of yummy snacks and had my brother and his gf over for games and football! We played lots of card and board games while watching our fave teams (U of M, MSU, and Texas Tech) get beat (to put it mildly).
We went out to dinner at Applebees for some yummyness, and then came back for more football and game action. So. much. fun.
Sunday we slept in until 10a.m. You have to understand how big of a deal this is! Garth is always up before 9 and I usually get up with him. He lures me with his mad coffee making skills! But Sunday we were in deep, amazing sleep until 10a.m.! Glorious!
We met the family for church. It rocked, as usual. We went to Jimmy John's for lunch and then back to my parent's to celebrate my dad's birthday (which is Friday, but we'll be in Florida). We played a rousing game of Tripoly all afternoon. My new fave game! Then enjoyed the amazing Macaroni Grill for dinner.
It was a wonderful weekend of friends, family and food. Happy Monday!

It is a lil chilly here in the sunshine state of Florida so make sure you pack a sweater or two.

Seems like you did have a lot of yummy food this weekend. Glad you got to sleep in; I got breakfast in bed and then got to go back to sleep!!

I love board games. It seems like forever since I have played one. I have always wanted to try Macaroni Grill, maybe someday I will get around to it.

Sleeping in must be nice. I miss it so. I long for the day when baby is old enough to sleep through the night.

Sounds like a fun weekend! We went to Applebees yesterday, but after being seated and waiting 20 minutes with no one greeting us we got up, and went to Uno's instead..which was okay by me :0) I haven't heard of Tripoly, but I am such a fan of games!
