Long Weekend Wrap Up

Monday, August 2, 2010 |
The reality that our three day long weekend is over and I accomplished NOTHING around the house is sinking in. I'm going to pretend that this is my version of a successful long weekend!

It started with a trip to the Farmer's Market where we picked up these tasties...


The amount of fruits and veggies in season right now is mind blowing! Those cookies front and centre are called "Everything But The Kitchen Sink" cookies...so yummy! If you haven't been yet....GO! You won't leave empty handed!

We dropped the goods off at home and headed to this little piece of paradise...


A very unsuccessful attept at wakeboarding and doube tubing with the hubby (which is the closest thing to a date we've been on in a long time!) somewhat became my 'aha moment' as a Mother...more on that later in the week.

By day two the boys were done...



and DONE!



Last but not least as promised here's what I threw together for dinner on Saturday night...



Ok maybe I didn't throw it together all on my own...with help (a lot!) from my sisters and Anna Getty's Easy Green Organic Pasta Fresca recipe. I would HIGHLY recommend this cookbook to anyone. Super easy recipes and amazing food!

Before we know it we're on our way to another week...August is here, the summer is half over and in a few days this little man will be 6 months old :(


And so begins my 'Mid Maternity Leave Crisis'!
