Hi Friends and Happy Monday! I am here with Sarah and we are chatting about our weekends. Hope you will join us!
Here is what our little weekend in New England looked like....
I will start with Friday as Pidge had her "Monster Bash" at school where they get to carve pumpkins and have some fall fun...thank goodness for friends who are there to snap some pics :)
She decided to be funny and carve I Love 6 7 in her pumpkin- she is the cutest! :) Not to get too sappy but this was our last Monster Bash :(
Friday Night
All about the FNL my friends...dinner at the same cheesy Chinese Restaurant we went to last year with some of my favorite Mamas
Then the FNL fun....awesome cheerleaders (with a fabulous new coach who is here to save the season)....and another blowout...Go Jags!!!
Final Score 28-0! Pure shutout!
Saturday
I got to sleep in- yeah!! I have been fighting a cold so the rest felt great! Rob took the cars (in shifts) to get the inspections done...Eva chatted with friends and Diana and I grabbed tea and coffee out then headed home. I watched a few more episodes of Gilmore Girls then the girls came to the grocery store with me so I could grab a few things for dinner.
That night they both had plans! Diana and Cat headed out on a double date then to a Halloween party...they dressed as Subway Surfers- they nailed it
and Eva headed to Screemfest with some friends and had a blast :)
So...we were empty nesters and I whipped us up a special dinner- filets with a horseradish crust, scalloped potato cups, maples glazed brussel sprouts, salad and rolls...and grabbed some yummy desserts for us to try too. We were stuffed! It felt good to catch up and chat about various things. (it did look like I was feeding an army, as always, but Robby B is very pleased to have lots of leftovers this week)
The girls came home late with their dates and hung out for awhile AND they came upstairs to tell me their great news...this is the great news I was waiting for this week...they snagged their HOCO dates for next weekend...nothing like last minute right? They are so excited and happy so I am happy for them- I think they will have a blast
Sunday
We got to sleep in a little bit then I ran to the store to grab some things to make a big breakfast for the girls...Cat slept over and they were starving.
Then Rob, Papa, Eva and I took off for her hockey game up on the North Shore of MA at the Pingree School- beautiful campus and great rink- another loss but they are getting better and better
On the way home, I had to snap a pic or two but the pics don't do the beautiful foliage any justice
When we got home, I whipped us up a Sunday pasta dinner
Then I got blogging while Rob and his Dad cut down a tree in the yard that has just become a nuisance
Tree before...
Tree After (before the cleanup)
Last night, I relaxed with some more Gilmore Girls....Diana worked...Eva chilled and Rob and his dad did the cleanup after cutting the tree done. It was a wonderful fall weekend! What were you all up to?
