Planning for Next Weekend

This weekend was supposed to be Thade’s First Soccer game, and a Birthday Party for Dylan, but the flu has halted all of those plans. I have to call the Coach today, and let him know that we won’t make it tomorrow, Thade’s cough is just horrible. We’ll have a little family dinner on Sunday for Easter, and tomorrow night the boy’s will dye Easter Eggs with Dad. I know they will have a blast doing that.

As for the party, it will have to wait until next weekend. I was thinking about having a little BBQ and inviting everybody to the Soccer Game too. I doubt I even get invitations in the mail, thank goodness for cell phones and e-mail. Now I really sound like a lousy and completely unprepared Mom : ( I’m still feeling so icky, and it is hard to get up the energy to get everything planned and cleaned up to have guests.

I hope that everybody has a great weekend, and a very Happy Easter too!

Quiet Evening

Last night we decided to have Valentine’s dinner at home, and it was so much fun. My hubby took off work a bit early so we could watch the Gatorade Duels at Daytona, I’m so glad that NASCAR is finally back. I made a big dinner, and we were going to even toast with a bottle of wine.

I was busy in the kitchen cooking and trying my hardest to uncork that bottle of wine (note to self purchase a proper opener, my Swiss Army knife opener isn’t working), I finally opened the bottle, poured our two glasses and presented them to my hubby. We toasted to each other, and took one sip, and we both realized that we were not a fan of the White wine. So I made two cocktails and we re-toasted 🙂

For dinner I made Steak and Steak Fries for my hubby, and I had Shrimp Scampi over Spaghetti, both were delicious. I made a big batch of Brownies for dessert too 🙂 It was such a great Valentine’s Day, and we had so much fun watching NASCAR! Staying in might become a Valentine’s Day tradition 🙂

Happy Valentine’s Day :)

I wanted to wish everybody a very happy Valentine’s Day, and great big hugs to all! Do you have big plans for this Valentine’s evening? I’m making a run to the grocery store today to pick up some special treats for a big Valentine’s Dinner 🙂
