Last night, we were invited to our first family get together at Brad and Lydia's new place, most commonly known as "The Freemansion." We were invited over to celebrate Lydia's birthday with Lydia and Brad's parents. They had prepared a wonderful spaghetti dinner, salad, and garlic bread. For dessert, we had a choice of cookie cake, or funfetti cake...yummy! After Lydia opened her gifts, Blake, Jackson, and I stayed behind and and watched the first episode of Season 4 of The Office. We didn't get home last night until about 11:00. We had such a fun time hanging out with the newest Freeman's.
Blake and I have started new bimonthly tradition that we hope to keep doing...We always go grocery shopping together every other Saturday. We always go with a well planned and thought out list, and can usually not have to return to the grocery store for two weeks (unless we need more milk, bread, etc.). Since Jackson has joined our family, we don't sleep in on Saturday's anymore, so after he wakes up on Saturday morning (usually around 7), we get dressed in "Saturday clothes" (running shorts, tennis shoes, no make up), and head to Panera for breakfast. After we are finished with our breakfast, we finalize our menu for the next two weeks, finalize our list, and head to Super Bi Lo, for our grocery trip. We had alot of fun today....We got everything we needed for our meals for the coming weeks, and I bought ingredients for a new recipe, Chicken Tortilla Soup. I can't wait to make it this week!
Tomorrow, we are celebrating another birthday. We will be celebrating Granny Freeman's 80th birthday. More birthday cake, yummy!
