Weekend Recap

I always feel better about working the weekend when the weather is bad. The last couple times it was my assigned weekend, the weather was better than what it has been (and by better, I mean it was double digit temperatures and sunny). Wisconsin (and I think most of the midwest) got a generous helping of rain over the course of the weekend as well as Monday, but that means the grass will get green faster!

So besides working, B and I had two of our dear friends over for grilling and a bonfire on Friday evening. The boys made homemade mango salsa and grilled jerk chicken which turned out amazing. I have a very low tolerance for spicy foods, but the chicken was just perfect. Since the weather was being cooperative, we started a bonfire and hung out for a few hours.


Our fire was roaring and the wood we were burning was very poppy. Embers flying everywhere, even on Riley's head.


Apparently the Prozac has made him not fear fire because he was trying to be all up right next to the fire and an ember even landed on his head; he looked at me quite indignantly when I was trying to smack an ember off his head.

I hope you all had an enjoyable weekend (hopefully with nicer weather than what we had)!
