Weekly Song - Valley of Worship

 

Enjoy! 

Our weekly snapshot

 Here’s a look back at our week: 

(They loaded backwards so start at the bottom!) 

Some stone shots (not mine!) of the festival on Friday.  

Finally there is a huge concert in town with upwards of 50,000 people over two days.  Billy Strjngs is a local boy who has made it huge and brought his festival to his home town.  We managed to snap a few photos with this huge guitar! 

We attended a field trip with our co-op! 

Josh had his very last “well child” check up!  Next year he’s in his own for his yearly physical 🤪

National Dog Day! 

Nate is participating in Centershot again. 

One of Nate’s friends got baptized. 

Sunday included baptisms. 

While Nate and I cleaned out and organized the garage. 

On Saturday we worked in some family projects.  These guys worked on ripping out poison ivy (the hazmat suits are hilarious) 

These are actually from last Friday - Josh and Averie worked on painting their “Senior Jeans”

Weekly Menu

 We have a HUGE music festival coming in to town this weekend so I have planned ahead to try and avoid unnecessary trips to the store. (Upwards of 40,000 people are arriving in Ionia beginning yesterday for the weekend.  It’s going to be a zoo) 

So here’s my plan! 

Friday - Quiche Night - Mushroom Spinach and Swiss cheese quiche and Three Cheese quiche.  Since they are both meatless I plan to cook Bacon to go along side and make a blueberry coffee cake. 

Saturday - we have some fun plans during the day (pending how bad the traffic is - if it’s crazy we aren’t going anywhere!) with my mom and then the guys head to a men’s night.  

Sunday - to keep it simple before our Fantasy Football draft I’m making little sausage crescent rolls, pasta salad, and party queso

Monday - Cheesy potato soup and bread 

Tuesday - Beef Flautas and rice

Wednesday - Sausage Gravy and Biscuits

Thursday — Pretzel mustard crusted chicken and fried rice 

Weekly Song

 

My local Christian station has started playing new songs and/or artists on Fridays.  This was new to me and I enjoyed it! 

Our weekly snapshot

Here’s a look back af our week (not in order!) 

On Thursday Nate had his well child appointment and he is in perfect health! 

Then we went in an adventure and got Chick-fil-a!! 

Josh had physical therapy on Friday morning so I got coffee 😊

Our Saturday included Darryl and Nate replacing the garbage disposal. 

And ended with a great dinner and rousing game at my mom’s.  

Weekly Menu

 As summer winds down and our fall schedule starts I shift gears with menu planning as our evenings get a little fuller and we eat in shifts more often. I tried the idea of meal prepping for the week this past week by cooking meals for Tuesday-Thursday all on Tuesday. Won’t do that again! 🤣🤣🤣👎. Ha!  I did not enjoy cooking for endless hours in one day!  I’d rather plan super easy meals!  

Anyway, here’s the plan! 

Friday: Boneless turkey breast and potatoes in the crockpot

Saturday - Dinner at my moms

Sunday - it’s Baptism Sunday so we will be later heading for home and plan to grab something. 

Monday - Spaghetti Carbonara and French Bread

Tuesday - Amish baked chicken and noodles

Wednesday - everyone’s kind of on their own 

Thursday - Barbacups and fries
