Weekend Review: Mother's Day

We had a really lovely weekend at home with Patrick's parents. Maggie has been full of squeals, babbles, and pure excitement. Grandma and Grandpa didn't arrive until almost 11pm Friday night--something like 8 or 9 hours later than planned. We spent time at the park earlier that day.

Saturday morning we hit the local farmers market and purchased ingredients for dinner. We went to Patrick's favorite steak house for lunch, then home for naps (all of us), then Patrick whipped up a tasty meal. He used this recipe from Giada De Laurentiis using our farmers market pasta, garlic, goat cheese, and tomatoes.

As a present to her mother, Maggie slept soundly all night long! Sunday morning we went to church, then hung out and relaxed until our BBQ rib dinner. Sunday also happened to be Grandpa's birthday so we celebrated with a sugar-free dessert of his choice.
