This weekend has been everything a weekend should be: relaxing, rejuvenating, and full of good food and good people. After a fairly crazy week, we all needed a rest and some diversion. On Saturday, we hosted a football party for 18 of our friends and their kids in our living room, during which Eric smoked and grilled the most aMAZing ribs ever. Sunday was spent at church, eating lunch with friends, and enjoying the afternoon: Eric and Ian went to play ultimate frisbee while I took a much-needed three-hour nap on the couch. Then today, we spent the entire afternoon at Warren Dunes, our
special Labor Day spot, where we took a picnic supper of PBJs, carrots, watermelon, and homemade cookies packed in my great-grandma Lulu's picnic basket that I just recently acquired from my Aunt Judy. We sat on the beach, splashed in the waves, dug in the sand, and just generally enjoyed each others' company. A truly stellar day capping off a truly stellar weekend. I'm so thankful for my little family and the fun we can have together.
