My parents have been visiting for over a week…so that’s where I’ve been. Taking time off completely, has been wonderful, and a much needed break!
We’ve spent some time in Seattle, they’ve revamped my entire backyard; built a flower and vegetable garden, put up a pool, and built a patio. And that was all in five days. They’re here for a couple more and are begging me to let them build a sandbox for my boys, who are currently digging out the flowers and grass. Fun times.
We’ve had S’mores, Bonfires, lots of Champagne, and even more Margaritas. It’s been perfect sunny weather, and I’ve got quite a good tan going, so I can’t complain at all. It.has.been.glorious. Drinking at 10am in the middle of the week with 80 degree weather is A-OK by me! 😉 #myparentsliketoparty
I’ve gotten a chance to go out on a date with my husband. (First one since February!) We celebrated my Dad’s birthday, ate lots of cake, and tons of excellent food. It’s been one heck of a week. I’ll be so sad when they leave, and my oldest son will be even sadder. He’s incredibly attached to my parents. Good thing they’re looking at buying the house next door! 😉
I hope you’re all starting to see warmer weather and sunny skies. We finally tried grilled pizza for the first time, and I’m not sure I’ll ever go back. (Unless it’s snowing.) It’s fantastic.
My mom has been making us all grinders for yearssss. She takes one huge loaf of fresh Italian bread, and makes one big long one. (You could do that with this one too!) She inspired this particular Chicken Grinder for sure! It’s loaded to the brim and full of flavor..I’ve made this with roasted red peppers and avocado too! The options and variations are endless! Try this..you’ll love it!
