A Weekend to Celebrate

It was a long time comin' but we had to wait for 1) him to come home 2) festivities of Easter to be taken care of and 3) the first FREE weekend SINCE FEBRUARY :) Remember someone turned 60? We were finally able to spend the weekend celebrating in all kinds of different ways with CountryDad! :) On Friday night we (the adults? seriously? when did JJ and I become the "adults"?) all went out to a GREAT Italian restaurant in the "big city". None of us had been before so I was a little nervous but it was GREAT food and my only complaint is that I didn't get CountryDad's dessert :) Special shout out to those that were home putting the little ones to bed so that we could all enjoy each other's company and spend a full TWO HOURS eating, talking (shouting... really... it was LOUD) and just having fun! The CountryRents spent the weekend in the "big city" at a hotel and we all took full advantage of the pool amenity. JJ and his clan headed up in the AM to get some good swimming and fun in and then we went up after Minnie's nap. She was BESIDE.HERSELF! The girl LOVES to swim and had SO much fun "doin' some jumpin'" :)


I think the CountryRents had just as much fun just watching her! :)


I do fear we will not get this little fish out of TiTi and Uncle Yee-In's pooool this summer :) Good thing for Chloe-Belle... the other fish in the family :)




After she jumped into the pool about 456,000 times we went back up to their room to change, hang out and figure out what we were doing for dinner... Twist my arm... Pizza Hut it was :)


I surprised CountryDad with a lemon meringue pie ~ one of his fav. desserts... I could have CRIED... this thing looked SO much better just out of the oven... :( Did NOT travel well...


but...it ATE...

JUST FINE :)


Love yah Dad! Hope you enjoyed the quiet? weekend ~ we sure did! XOXOXOXOXOXO
