I went on a bike ride and went to a picnic at the park!
I made a roast chicken dinner with all of the fixings and an apple pie, and delivered it to one of my dearest friends and her husband. He was recently diagnoses with stage 4 lung cancer that has spread into his spine. The pain in his back has been unbearable, and his wife has been burning the candles at both ends, caring for him at home. I stayed and visited with them for a while, and they were both very appreciative of the chicken dinner and dessert. I am going to continue to bring a meal for them every week, as it lessens the stress on them both. They are such dear and wonderful friends of mine, and they deserve so much more than the hand that fate has dealt them.
I spent the rest of that weekend with my husband and young daughter, thankful that we are all healthy and happy living our simple life here in the north country. <3
Lauren! I’m obsessed! You are the queen of amazing recipes as far as I’m concerned! 😉

This Monday was the first day back to school for my four kids, so I am back to my normal routine.
Hiking…bbqing and reading
It originally looked like it was going to be a quiet weekend. Everyone was away camping and I stayed home, with no car, with the dogs. The thought was awe, peaceful..
Then Sunday night unexpectedly while walking the dogs, at dusk, I mis-stepped in a small pothole, twisted & chipped a bone in my ankle, and badly bruised the other knee as I went down …
So today when everyone came home spent the afternoon and early evening in emerg. Now I’m sporting a new fashionable boot that looks like something out of a transformers movie! 😀

Sunday was nothing but rest and breakfast with one daughter and ice cream with the other. Today was work and finally a soccer game to cap off a very busy, but completely awesome weekend.

I work at the local shelter here in my city. Even tho it is a holiday, the animals don’t know that, and still require our care to keep them happy and healthy. I work with the cats, so I gave them all just a little bit extra canned food to celebrate. I only worked a half day, then came home took a nap, played some facebook games, and caught up on my shows and movies. Relaxing before I have to get up and do it all over again tomorrow! It’s not really a job when you enjoy what you do!! Meow, meow!! <3

Just drove back home today. 🙂 I would loooove one of your cookbooks!!!
We have had a sad weekend – our cat delivered two stillborn kittens. While I was upset she got pregnant before I got her spayed, I am sad the kittens died. Also I had to work on both Saturday and Sunday but at least have Monday off to just read and chill.

My husband and I lounged around in the backyard on Saturday. We had an awesome salad for dinner that night with fresh lettuce, tomatoes and veggies from the garden. After church on Sunday we went into Vancouver B.C., our hometown and rented a hotel room for the night… right down in Coal Harbour! A beautiful place with walking paths, eateries and views of the mountains and water. We rented bikes and road around Stanley Park. For those of you that don’t know anything about Stanley park, it is the largest and probably one of the oldest parks in Vancouver. Located right down on the waters edge, with many beaches and views of the lions ( they are peaks on grouse mountain), I think it is the number one tourist attraction in Vancouver. We spent the whole two hours that we had the bikes, riding and stopping at all the sites in the park. We had a fun dinner at a pizza joint on Denman street, where we had pizza made with spelt flour. Whatever type of food you are looking for, you will find it here on Denman. A little people watching, then we walked along the water back to the hotel, where we went for a late night swim and hottub in their outddoor spa area. We had such a beautiful night view of the water and Grouse mountain it was hard to settle down and get some rest. Today after we checked out, we went for lunch at the Urban Fair market across the street. this place is awesome and with great prices. I had homemade macaroni with real chedder cheese and my husband had the roasted chicken, one of each, Italian herb and cajun, along with mashed potatoes and gravey. Oh my …it was yummy! We then took a nice walk the other way on the walkway. Past the new convention centre and along the waterwalk past the 5 sails at Canada Place, where the Disney cruise ship “the Wonder” was loading new passengers for their last Alaskan run of the season. We spent the rest of the afternoon down in Gastown. Another favourite spot for tourists to visit. All this in 24 hours! We so enjoyed playing tourists in our own hometown of Vancouver, B.C. Now, as I am typing this my husband is crashed in the lounge chair beside me out in our backyard. Awwww it’s good to be home and rest! 😉
I visited family, caught a Tigers game (my favorite baseball team!) and had a cookout/surprise birthday party for a friend. it was a great weekend! I hope yours was great too!
Celebrated my daughter’s 15th birthday (9/1) all weekend long. Made her favorite dinners all weekend: Fri- Philly Cheesesteak Sandsiches, Sat- Tacos, Sun- Meatloaf, Tonight- Roasted Chicken & Stuffing. Saturday – took her to the One Direction movie, Sunday church & birthday party, today shopping trip for clothes. : )
We had a fun BBQ on the beach!
we went outlet shopping! which was great because our nearest mall is an hour away, so the shopping and sales were awesome!
Organizing, errands, andR&R
This weekend my husband and I participated in the Green Mountain Adventure Challenge in West Dover, Vermont. It entailed hours of hiking, following clues, and of course getting lost but was a ton of fun. Thanks for the giveaway!
I worked Friday and Saturday, helped a friend move on Sunday and then worked again today. BOO! But, I’m having a nice mall day with my little brother tomorrow!

I spent a lot of time relaxing, taking care of myself- eating well and exercising, but also watching a lot of US Open Tennis!

It was supposed to be a nice relaxing weekend, but instead we made it a productive weekend. Painted two rooms, upcycled a coffee table and completely redecorated the living room. We also had some fun and went to a parade. Now my poor husband needs another day off to relax from all the work i made him do… good thing he loves me so much 🙂

I’m taking a long over due vacation and getting things done around the house!
My husband & I went camping! We started out in Bowling Green, KY, but decided we couldn’t stay there because there was no phone service and I would’ve been devastated if anything happened to my Dad and no one could get in touch with me…..he’s 87! So we left and came back to TN and ended up staying at a wonderful campground in Crossville TN and fished and fished and fished! I missed my kitchen so much! Tomorrow I WILL bake something…..and if I had your cookbook, it would definitely be something from that!
Spent the weekend with my amazing family at the lake in Northern Michigan! My two old had his first campfire complete with s’mores! My 5 month smiled lots which is what he does best!

I smoked brisket, and chicken, made meatloaf, homemade bread, two chocolate pies and two cheesecakes. He went back yesterday with his bounty and I am resting today. I have labored a lot this weekend. 🙂
Sadly I have a nasty case of poison sumac, so I’ve been lazily sittin on the couch for over a week now just reading and watching movies. It would be fun except for the aggravating itching going on. 😉 But it was nice to spend moments in laughter with various members of my family – they always brighten a day. 😀
I went to Fremont Lakes State Park camping and swimming.
LOVE camping 🙂
I went kayaking for the first time, watched the first season of Elementary (yes the whole thing), took the kids to see Turbo and then did regular household chores. I love having an extra day on the weekend.
I found some long hidden motivation this weekend and thoroughly cleaned my kitchen! I chipped away a little each day, spreading it out around friends and church. It feels great now to see it (especially my junk-free ‘junk’ counter!)
Spent the weekend cleaning out & reorganizing my garage, while hosting a houseful of kids. Today I’ve given haircuts & am now writing out lesson plans for my homeschooled children to do tomorrow. All while being on call for the nursing agency I work for! Busy but blessed! 🙂

Labor Day 2013 was bittersweet as my sweet mother-in-love passed away and we were grieving and remembering her sweet and precious memories.
