Well, I think we tried to pack in as much as we could in one weekend. Sheesh. Friday night we got home from work and frantically cleaned and prepped for friends to come over for dinner. We made nachos. Yum!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Ground turkey meat cooked with taco seasoning, then of course cheese, black olives and red onions. Our friends made guacamole (it was really good) and we ate dinner, caught up on stuff and then played Cards Against Humanity. Randomly Michael decided to call the 1-800 number for the game and it was the funniest thing ever. If you’ve never called the number, you should. It was actually worth going through the phone tree. \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n

Logan fell asleep reading his current favorite book and it was too cute not to share:<\/p>\n

On Saturday I went to the gym and then the three of us went out to lunch before naptime. Nap time was definitely needed! A bunch of chores and errands later…it was time for Saturday dinner and another pair of friends came over. Sam and John got married in August<\/a><\/strong><\/span> and they came over to our place Saturday to tell us all about their amazing honeymoon to London and Paris!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

They took a cooking class when they were in Paris and I am so ridiculously jealous! \ud83d\ude42 It sounded amazing. Anyways, I poured us all a glass of the Sokol Blosser sparkling rose to celebrate and we had the chicken that Michael smoked.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Sam made a really delicious slaw (fennel, granny smith apples, red cabbage and carrots) –seriously so good! And I made a Trader Joe’s harvest mix–it was red quinoa, Israeli couscous and baby garbanzo beans. Then I mixed in diced green onions, chopped almonds and dried cranberries. It all went really well together.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Dinner was delicious. Dessert was freshly baked chocolate chip cookies.<\/p>\n

Sunday Michael took Bella to the vet to get her stitches out. She’s thankfully feeling better and back to her normal self! While they did that, Logan and I did some art. \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

My brother got Logan a finger painting kit for Christmas and I figured it was a good time to test it out. He had a great time and then realized he could clap his paint-covered hands together and make splatter like Jackson Pollock. The entire kitchen had splatter. Guess who got a bath immediately afterward?<\/p>\n\n\t\t
