Mother's Day Weekend

This was the first Mother's Day in five years that the kids were able to be with us. :) SO - we made the most of it!

Audri really wanted to help me cook. So, after grocery shopping, we made fruit salad, potato salad, pasta salad, guacamole, and then finger steaks and brownies. It was for two different meals; Saturday night was finger steaks, french fries, and fruit salad, followed by . Sunday we grilled hamburgers and had corn on the cob, pasta salad, potato salad, and grilled pineapple.

Audri, learning to bread something for frying; we cut the steaks into strips, coated them in the breading, dipped them in egg, then re-coated in the breading before deep frying.

It was a great experience, and she said she wanted to help more often! She helped with breakfast Sunday morning, and made the biscuits for our biscuits and sausage gravy. :) She's a great sous chef!

Sunday was such a beautiful day, so we went for a walk.

A quick family photo while out on our walk... the kids are getting so tall!!!

We had Brent and Angie over for dessert Sunday evening; I was showing Angie how to create a blog, while holding her son, William.

What a fabulous weekend! :) And one filled with food... that's what we do! :)
