2 day pass

this weekend the weather felt like almost spring, not soon to be winter.
windows were wide open, legs left bare and as much time as possible was spent outside.
the kids wiled away the weekend in the yard with friends, and t. bone golfed what could be his last round of 2012.
coach did a makeover on our yard, and i tell you it's a real looker now.
he even strung lights on the bushes so they will twinkle and shine next month.
that makes me very happy.
so did having wine and cheese with my friend friday.
and a family night saturday was also much enjoyed.
we grilled bbq chicken that miss bit said was the best ever, lit candles in the dining room and then gathered in the family room to play games.
t. bone and i were right that it was miss peacock in the kitchen with the rope.
after church and during sunday school, coach and i managed a fast paced four miler all along the lakefront and winding through the city.
we noticed that the clouds looked like they were painted masterfully in the sky.
i baked brownies ala julia childs and cookie bars ala tollhouse for coach to take to work tomorrow.
it's his birthday, and he asked me nicely and then paid my baking compliments.
we celebrated his 45th an eve early at our favorite hibachi grill.
t. bone tried wasabi and pot stickers, miss bit tried (and very much liked) shrimp and ate quite successfully with chop sticks.
i ate some crab and tuna sushi and coach stuck with the filet mignon and saki.
we came home to open presents.
coach liked them all.
before bed, i'm going to have to turn the heat back on.
it's supposed to be in the 30s tomorrow.
