More Fun Family Time

Oh my goodness, this has been such a fun weekend. After the sleepover with the girls, Jack and I went out to Susie's. We went with her to the farm stand where she gets the best tomatoes and corn. Jack also scored some homemade pickled beets which by all reports are outstanding (not into beets, but may have to try them). We also went out to lunch at Olympic Star and had so much fun with lots of great conversation. It was just a nice leisurely meal, no one had to be in a rush. We don't take the time to do that often enough.
We got home mid-afternoon, in time to say good bye to Sally. She is a chaperone on a Habitat for Humanity trip. They have 6 vehicles loaded with high schoolers and chaperones heading to West Virginia for the week. I am sure Sal will have lots of good stories to tell. Saying a prayer for all of them for safe travels.
Jack and I went to 5 o'clock mass and received a voice mail from Sue. She found a pair of the girls' goggles from the night before and wanted to drop them off. She and Lauren were headed to Oak Brook so they were going to swing by. We got home right as they arrived and it was the perfect opportunity to have a glass of wine together! (when is it not for me?!) we were having such a great time, next thing you know, we talked them into bagging the shopping trip and we threw together some dinner, including corn and tomatoes from the farm stand.
Another super fun family day! So blessed.
