Monday Muddle

Wow!  This Monday is a  muddle for sure.  Birthday party coming up this weekend, the last minute crunch for Christmas, and the usually parenting adventures of a Mama.  As if our past four months haven't been crazy enough, my husband's grandpa passed away yesterday morning as well.  It was quite a blow as we were planning a New Year's trip to see him.  To say that the second half of this year has been hard would be an understatement.  I've been telling everyone that it's hard not for us to just wish 2011 away.

So in the midst of everything, this has been a crazy Monday.  My husband left last night to be with family and I'll go down later.  The kids and I had a rare treat of In-n-Out burgers last night, then gathered around to do some science.  Both my kids love experiments so we filled our evening with bases and acids, and chemical reactions.  It was fun!

Well, this is what our menu looks like this week:
Monday--Tomato soup, grilled cheese
Tuesday--Spaghetti and green salad
Wednesday--Tacos
Thursday--Potato soup
Friday--Homemade pizza
Saturday--Out for Lydia's birthday dinner
Sunday--Staff meeting, birthday party, going crazy!
