Weekend Wrap-up

Dinner on Friday night was quick-broiled shrimp over a bed of liguine alfredo.

On Saturday, Rebecca went off to her weekly yoga class in the morning while the kids and I cleaned and organized the living room and hall closets. Maia's assistance was limited to building a cave in the hall closet out of spare paper towel rolls, while Ian's assistance was limited to building a paper towel tower (a paper tower), knocking it over, and saying "Uh oh!"

After a run to the grocery store midday, we mopped the kitchen and then relaxed around the house on Saturday afternoon. We made a big stock pot full of vegetarian lentil soup. Our friends, Tammy and Patrick, came over for dinner followed by pints of Ben and Jerry's for desert.

On Sunday, Rebecca took the kids to church as usual while I got some extra work done on a deadline. The weather was super nice so we spent the whole afternoon outside, reattaching hoses for the springtime and making a fire in our rapidly decaying firepit. Maia made grass-based foods as a Baking Show contestant and garnished with 2 of the 3 white daffodils we had in on our woods trail.

Dinner on Sunday was burgers with sauteed mushrooms. Ian serenaded us with several rounds of "Jesus Loves Me" after which we gave the kids a bath and put them to bed. Sunday night was reserved for 2022 taxes and putting up TurboTax's annoying cadence of "We're going to look to see if you qualify for this benefit! You don't qualify for this benefit!"

How was your weekend?
