Wow! What a busy week we've had. We hosted an impromptu dinner party on Friday night, which was a lot of fun and a great way to begin the long weekend. Thank you Erin and family for joining us!
Saturday, my sister and newest brother-in-law drove up to visit us for the weekend. They were our very first overnight guests :) As a way to celebrate, we had our very first backyard fire. Ever. No where we've lived before have we been allowed FIRE in our own BACKYARD. The thrill, the joy! It's like camping without having to deal with the tent, cooler or sand. Perfect.
Sunday was spent on the beach. Not any beach though, but one that almost no one knows exists and we therefore had it all to ourselves. Its on a road that doesn't even show up on the map and it's got perfect white sand for a loooong way out into the water. We had a fire on the beach too.
Then later that evening, another fire back at the house. We're obsessed now.
Monday, sis and bro left and we had a quiet day recovering from all the excitement of the weekend. Going to the beach is exhausting, apparently! We did build a lunchtime fire for the boys though and roasted leftover wieners for lunch.
Wednesday the boys went to day camp, and I caught up on some work online, as well as did the weekly grocery shop. Wed. is not a good day for shopping, I've discovered. The aisles are very bare. Shipments don't come in on Tuesday evenings, this I've deducted.
Tomorrow is Friday and hubby has taken the day off so we can go to Lloydminster to pick up supplies. Our first time there, I'm excited. AND, they have a Starbucks. Kelso is in the car already :)
