The Weekend

I hope all Mom's had a great Mother's Day! My husband took me out for breakfast and when we got home my daughter gave me a home made card (aren't those the best?) and then together they gave me a Hallmark card and the Juno movie. Can't wait to watch that! We then lounged around for awhile and then had to run down to Kohl's so that we could get Kay some summer clothes. We ended up only getting 2 outfits because she was tired of trying clothes on! I don't think she has the concept yet of when your parents are willing to buy you clothes to get all you can! I know when I was a teenager I certainly would have taken advantage of it if my parents were that generous. At least she was somewhat pleasant when we were shopping so I can't complain too much. So after shopping we met my sister and her family and our parents at Logan's Steakhouse for Mother's Day dinner. I was getting restless because it was an hour wait for a table. (I don't like waiting) But the wait was certainly worth it as our dinner was delicious!! My husband and I agreed that we found our new favorite steakhouse! Sorry 54th Street!

I borrowed an air cast from my brother in law in which is helping me to get around really well. The swelling has gone down in my ankle but I am so afraid I am going to injure it again that I am wearing this thing for the next 6 weeks or so in order to get it strong. The thing that sucks is I bought two new pairs of high heel sandals 2-3 months ago when I was in a winter depression (I can't stand winter) and I have been dying to wear them.....now it looks like it will be July before I can.

Tonight I am making a new dish for dinner. It is chicken in creamy basil sauce. I decided that I am tired of eating hot dogs, pizza, waffles, etc. in which is all our kids would eat in the years past. We sucessfully got one graduated from high school this weekend, have two that will become teenagers this year and one that will become a teenager next year so it is time they take some adventures on the pallet. I remember being the same way as a kid. I just hope they are willing to open up and try new things.

Have a great day!
