Whew - everyone is back to school and work today and we can relax a bit and I can finish recovering from the cold I came down with on Friday!
We had a wonderful three day weekend that began when the hubby ordered pizza for dinner Friday night (yay to not having to cook)! Saturday was beautiful so we thought we would visit the St. Louis Zoo. Well, it seemed that pretty much everyone else had the same idea, so we changed plans and went to the St. Louis Science Center instead! What a great time we had - the crowd was light and the kids had a blast interacting with the exhibits. But the coolest thing was the Navy Week expo outside in the planetarium's parking lot. There were 5-6 booths set up with everything Navy, including a dive tank and a flight simulator that Rick and the kids got to ride. Way cool!
Saturday afternoon the kids and Rick went outside so I could get some rest. The girls had an impromptu play date that evening with a family from school, and the house was so peaceful. Actually, the house could have fallen in and I wouldn't have known. I was feeling so awful by that time that I didn't even know that Rick had gotten all the kids to bed!
Sunday evening we had a friend over for dinner and we had the most awesome pork steaks, grilled to perfection by the hubby! Topped off by a berry cobbler and ice cream. Delish!
Monday started with a movie Despicable Me, which we loved, a quick trip around the mall and ended with my parents over for barbecue and homemade ice cream.
It was a wonderful weekend - what did you do?
