VBS Week!

A new week has started, and it is going to be a busy one!

It is Vacation Bible School week at our church, and it is in the evening, so that means there needs to be a little bit more organization on our weekly menu. 

I am also in charge of crafts for the week at VBS, so I need to have my game face on!

Here is what I am thinking for the week!

Monday-Tacos

Tuesday-Brats on the grill, oven friend potatoes, brocolli

Wednesday-Hot ham-n-cheese sammies, veggies with dip, fruit salsa

Thursday-Grilled chicken, pasta salad, baked beans

Friday-Camping trip after VBS

Saturday-Camping trip

Sunday-Dinner at my mom's

*************************

Nothing too exciting on the menu, but things that I can make quickly, and things that can be eaten easily.

Here's to a great week!

Monday already!!

Can you believe that Osama bin Laden has been found, killed and buried all within 24 hours??

I stayed up last night to watch the President's speech-loved that he ended with portions of the Pledge of Allegiance.

I am just very proud of our American soldiers and the diligence and risks they take everyday for our freedom!

History in the making is amazing!

(no matter your political point of view)

Some menu planning

I am not a big menu planner, but I would like to be a better one at that if I could. I just know that it has been too convenient to get something from a restaurant or have fast food. I miss our dinners around the table all together. It just seems that the past few months have been a whirlwind of activities, and getting something out was just easier. Well, I am making it my goal this week to eat good, healthful meals at home as a family! So, here is my "menu" for this week. We'll see how I do at prepping, preparing and following through with my plan!

Monday-Fettucine Alfredo with garlic bread.
Tuesday-Grilled marinated chicken breast, grilled onion and potato packets, broccoli and cheese.
Wednesday-Grilled Honey Mustard Pork Chops, au gratin potatoes, salad
Thursday-Hot Dogs on the grill, macaroni and cheese, green beans
Friday-Spaghetti with meatballs, homemade sauce, garlic bread, salad
Saturday-Date Night-We usually go out, but maybe we will have steak on the grill. We'll see.
Sunday-Sunday Dinner at my mom's.

Wish me luck on my menu planned week!
