Weekend With Dad

Since I have Monday off from school and work, I got to drive home late friday night. Got to see mom and Chad off to the airport for their mission trip to Mexico. Saturday night we cooked ribs (compliments of Uncle Patrick) and I cook mashed potatoes and a delicious green bean side dish. - Place 4-5 cut green beans in half a piece of turkey bacon.

- Stick a toothpick in it to hold it all together

- Sprinkle brown sugar and a touch of butter on top

- Cook for as long as listed on the bacon package

- Enjoy!

Then Sunday for lunch we celebrated the Forth with some Bar-B-Que Chicken. It was super easy and turned out great!

- Covered the chicken with kraft original bbq sauce, drizzle with a little honey, a pinch of

salt and pepper.

- Wrap each chicken in aluminum foil

- Cook for 20 minutes at 450

Seeing as I NEVER cook, I was very proud of myself :)

Then tonight we sat outside and watched the neighbors shoot off some small fireworks. The youngest boy was so scared of the loud noises, but after a while he got used to it. He was adorable!

Then we went and parked on top of the hospital parking garage and watched fireworks going off ALL over the city!

It was so much fun this weekend! Great to get away from school and work for a few days and relax.

one week left of class :) whoo hoo!
