Our driveway. (My brother has been practicing parallel parking between the tires).
Yesterday, Shannon and I had a little date. My mom had court in the morning and Shannon had his weekly staff meeting, so after both of those were finished Shannon and I went to a little place here called Charlotte's. Charlotte's is only open for breakfast and lunch, and they have wonderful salads, sandwiches, and soups. We were hungry and it was cold, so we thought it'd be a good time for a date.
Shannon had Black Bean Chicken Chili. The poor guy still looks cold, wearing his coat inside!
Not the best picture of me, but look at the size of that salad! Southwest Chicken Fajita Salad...my favorite thing on the menu. By the way, I brought half of the salad to my mom...I didn't eat it all!
So Shannon and I had a fun date out to lunch. Later in the afternoon we went to the swimming pool (yes, it's indoors, don't worry that we're freezing to death swimming outside!). We had the place all to ourselves, other than four little kids taking a swimming lesson. We swam laps for about 30 minutes (me with a kickboard...it's too much work to push my extra 20 pounds through the water without one!) and then headed to the hot tub. Shannon let the jets work on his back and I soaked my legs. Then it was home for Louisiana Dirty Rice and Beans and to invent a recipe for Pumpkin Cheesecake while watching House with the family and then heading to bed. Today's my day off and I'm helping my mom get organized for the holidays. Can you believe that Thanksgiving is only two weeks away?! I think it's time to start planning the menu...
It's only just now snowing? My MIL said it's been snowing in Wyoming for a couple months now! How is it possible they have gotten more snow than Alaska? Crazy. Enjoy the loveliness of it! Glad you got to have a good lunch date out too :) So fun!
