Sunshine...All Weekend!

 Friday Sonsearae drove out and we hopped in the truck and drove to Panacea to have lunch at Trident.  We've been wanting to check it out as it is run by the same people that own Backwoods Crossing in Tallahassee.  It's a farm to table restaurant, as is Trident.  More seafood based on the Trident menu.  We all enjoyed our meals and even though it's a seafood restaurant, overlooking the water, Jim and I think they're a bit pricy.  It's always good to spend time with family, don't you think?

Saturday morning started out overcast and misty, but soon the sun prevailed and it started clearing.  Once the sun was out in full force the day heated up.

Jim was out in the morning doing chores and had to come in around noon.  Meanwhile I was inside doing chores.  The list never ends!

Sunday we had a late start to our day and Jim decided it was to late/hot to work outside.  I agreed!  So we spent the day reading, gaming, eating and watching shows on Acorn.  Jim took a nap and I made a card or two.

Guess What?

                      We've had more rain but not as much as the other day.  It's safe to say we're tired of it.  

Did all you dads have a fine Sunday?  Sonsearae fixed a Mexican themed meal for us and Jim enjoyed it immensely.  Tamales were the centerpiece and even the ones we brought home are gone.  Beef, Pork, Chicken, Beans and Cheese with jalapeno.  There was Pico de Gallo, Mexican street corn salad.  She also cooked ground beef for tacos, shredded cheese and guacamole.  Special dessert of cupcakes.

We had some rain on Monday, enough that we didn't venture out as planned.  We need some items from Walmart.  We both hate going there but some of our wants are cheaper there.  A day of reading mostly.  We've decided to get Acorn  streaming service.  We both enjoy the British shows and now we can watch at our leisure.

Finally made it to Walmart...lines at all three registers and the self checkout.  Why don't they hire more people!!??  While I waited in line Jim walked around getting his exercise/steps in the lovely air conditioning.  

We brought a pizza home for dinner and tonight ate the rest of our Pico along with some guacamole I made with the avocado Sonsearae sent home with us.  No rain yet!

I make Christmas cards on the 25th (shows you how far behind I am in posting).  All Stampin' Up! but retired DSP...I do have a lot of pretty paper to use up

This is Countryside Inn DSP.  Most of the paper is a darker blue but I like this lighter blue also

Using retired DSP I made these two cards with matching envelopes (this helps use up the paper)
