Weekly Menu

Whew - it is basically December.  This time of year I always want to slow way down and just savor the last month of the year.  Daily life can get overwhelming but the lights and sounds of Christmas can be so peaceful.  I have created my menu for the month of December so I can plan accordingly including Christmas Day.  We do have family visiting at the end of the month which will be nice as well.  For now, here is the plan for the next week.  

Friday - Leftovers at my moms - this has become kind of a tradition. 

Saturday -spaghetti and garlic bread

Sunday - crockpot chicken and butter noodles

Monday -Breaded Chicken, acorn squash and green beans 

Tuesday - Chicken Quesadillas and Salad

Wednesday- Youth group is back - Pot Pies

Thursday - French toast sticks and sausage 

Weekly Menu - the one that includes Thanksgiving

 It's officially a holiday week!  Yeah!  This is the time I try to really slow us down to enjoy the season. 

Friday - We have our semester presentation night tonight so dinner is there or on the run. 

Saturday - Dinner at my moms

Sunday - Pork Roast, mashed potatoes, and corn

Monday - Lasagna Soup and bread sticks.  (This is a new recipe- I hope it is good) 

Tuesday - Roasted chicken, Amish noodles, and acorn squash

Wednesday - With it being the night before Thanksgiving we are going Mexican!  Crock Pot Fajitas for the win! 

Thursday - Thanksgiving Dinner!  

Weekly Menu

 We are coming to the end of our semester at our Co-Op.  As much as I enjoy it all, it is nice as the semester ends and we get almost 2 months off before the next session.  :-) 

Friday - Meatloaf, mashed potatoes, yeast rolls and corn

Saturday - Dinner at my moms

Sunday - Roast and Noodles

Monday - Meatball Soup

Tuesday - Chicken Alfredo and garlic bread

Wednesday - As normal, the guys are at youth group.  Not sure what we are doing yet

Thursday - The plan is Crock pot Fajitas - this is one of my mom's favorite so I plan on her for dinner! BUT there are multiple things going on this date including things my kids have planned so depending on timing, this meal might get pushed ahead to next week and Darryl and I will just eat whatever I make HA! 

Weekly Menu

 We have settled into our more quiet weeks now that it is November.  We push harder through school with goals of wrapping up semester classes early and we stick closer to home (well as much as we can with lessons and youth groups).  

Friday Pasta Carbonara and French bread 

Saturday - Dinner at my moms

Sunday - pulled pork sandwiches and baked potatoes 

Monday - Tortellini Soup

Tuesday - BBQ Chicken Quesadillas, Salad, and Chips and Salsa

Wednesday - The guys are at youth group so Pot Pies for Darryl and I

Thursday - Stromboli and Salad

Weekly Menu

 It is time to shift into holiday and winter mind set.  Why?  It is officially November!  Really, not a whole lot changes HA!  

Friday - Today is a "3 different direction" night.  Darryl is at work, I have to get Nate to a friends church for an overnighter and get Josh to a camp for a weekend retreat.  It should work out well as far as timing - we just might spend extra time driving in order to everyone to their locations on time!  

Saturday - Nate come's home early but Josh is at camp.  We are having dinner with my mom :-)  

Sunday - There is a potluck at church.  Darryl and I have to head out to pick up Josh so, again, timing will determine who eats where. 

Monday - BBQ Cups and Chips.  This is easy when we are all eating at different times. 

Tuesday - Our menu shifted a little last week so we are still finishing up Josh's "birthday picks".  Tonight is shrimp and grits with corn bread. 

Wednesday - My guys are at youth group so dinner is just Darryl and I.  Soup is on the menu. 

Thursday - Josh's final meal request (unless it shifts again HA!)  Chick-Fil-A nuggets (homemade) and homemade  French Fries!
