Happy Tuesday friends. I meant to get this posted yesterday but it just didn’t happen. I am trying a new series on my blog called “Weekends”. I absolutely love weekends even if I don’t do anything at all. Which is what I prefer sometimes. Anyway we will see how it goes. I hope you enjoy reading.
This past weekend was a very busy one certainly not one that I was able to lounge around in my jammies for half of the day. I started out early Saturday morning getting my hair cut. I got about four inches cut off. I love the way it feels. It was getting really long and I needed a good cut.
Since I was out and about early I decided to get some running done. I had some of my family over on Sunday for a special Birthday for my nephew Tyler he turned eighteen!!! WHAT? How can he be eighteen?
I went to the village where my mother in law lives and put up a small Christmas tree for her in her room. We then did the usual going and getting a hamburger for lunch. It really helps for her just to get away from the village for awhile. I did some shopping for her and then did my own grocery shopping.
My nephew decided that he wanted a spaghetti dinner for his birthday. He didn’t want to go to a restaurant he said he didn’t want anyone to make a big deal about his birthday. He is so different than his brother.
Sunday I did some quick cleaning on the house and finished putting some decorations on my Christmas tree. Since I was making spaghetti I didn’t have to do a lot of cooking ahead of time. My sister brought the cake so I only had to worry about the spaghetti and I bought bread. I usually make my sourdough bread but I just didn’t have time over the weekend. It is a two day process when making this bread. I did a post about it awhile back if you missed it you can check it out here
I just had to sneak these pictures of Kitty Kitty in. She loves to lay under the Christmas tree. She hasn’t bothered the tree too much since I got all of the ornaments on it.
First Birthday to eighteenth Birthday. Where oh where does the time go?
This is the Birthday guy lighting his candles.
This is another of my nephews, he is a musician and every time he comes to my house he plays my out of tune piano and makes it sound amazing!!!!!
My sister got an ice cream cake for the Birthday dinner. It was great!!!
This is Tyler’s younger brother Caleb and his friend Alyssa. This boy is always making us laugh.
I think he is over the Birthday festivities ha ha!!!!
I had about ten people over for the spaghetti dinner and we had a great time!!! It was a beautiful day so we were able to hang out on the deck and be outside a little. I think spending time with family is the best way to spend a weekend.
Have a wonderful week and remember
Love your day your way
