Friday- Panera Bread (Oriental Salad and half a Turkey Bacon Bravo)
Saturday- Bourbon Salmon, salad and squash  at my parents
Sunday- Pasta Fagioli I used lean ground beef and v-8 instead of tomato sauce and cooked the pasta separate so I used less beef stock which is a whole lot less in sodium than canned beef broth (so yummy)
Monday- Burritos with shredded chicken
Tuesday-Manhattan Meatballs with Mashed Potatoes
Wednesday-Roasted Chicken and Rosemary Jalepeno Diced Potatoes
Thursday- Something grilled or leftovers cause I'm taking the night off ;)

Actually going to listen to this one while working on some secret scrap related stuff.

Plus I had my Speed Demon layout accepted in the July Issue of Bella Scraps.

Did I lie or what?!? I kept meaning to post my menu on Monday and kept forgetting to do it.

Friday- Went to a scrapbook crop and had pizza
Saturday- Parents house, mom made Salmon and I don't remember what was with it.
Monday- Sent M for Chinese
Tuesday- Chicken tenders and fries
Wednesday- Throwing together a Beef Stew
Thursday- have not yet decided, possibly putting Matt on the grill :)

Vox won't let me upload any pictures or layouts right now so I'll try again later on another post.

I picked up a few more books to read for myself while at the library picking up some books for Tally. I just finished 3rd Degree last night and I'll be starting this one today...

I had my first true migraine yesterday. It was awful!!! I think I've been having some small ones the past few weeks but they didn't last as long as this one did. Shortly after Matt got home it hit me hard and by the time I decided that it was a migraine it was to late to save. So I stayed upstairs most of the night while Matt was a sweetheart and took care of the kids. I feel better today but I'm drained. I took some tension headache Excendrin and I hope it stays away for a while. Definitely going to the doctor if they continue!

Meal Plan for this week

Friday-Roasted Chicken with Smokey Apricot Sauce (Robin Millers Quick Fix Meals) It was pretty good, I think I overcooked mine because it was dry.
Saturday- Went to Napoli's Italian Restaurant since my grandfather was in town from Texas, I had a yummy Chicken Calabrese which was Sauteed mushrooms, artichoke hearts in alla panna sauce with chicken and spaghetti
Sunday- We went to Los Cabos after the Aquarium, I had Carnitas Burrito that was pretty good, meat was a little dry.
Monday-(Migraine day) I had some lovely saltine crackers lol while Matt and Tally had sandwiches.
Tuesday- Thinking about using the nice gift card my FIL and his wife got me for my birthday to Cheesecake Factory because I'm really not 100% still and it sounds yummy for takeout!
Wednesday- Thai Chicken Salad with Peanuts and Lime (Robins Millers Quick Fix Meals) made with leftovers from the Roasted Chicken from Friday. Matt has a photoshoot gig so it's fast and he can eat it before he goes or when he gets back if he's still hungry.
Thursday- Depending on the weather possibly ribs on the grill and if not I'll do them in the oven. I'll use some yummy Elmers Sweet BBQ Sauce

I have the menu for next week and most of the groceries for it but I'll do that on Monday like I'm supposed to. ;)

We had a nice visit with my Grandpa, his wife and granddaughter this past weekend. It was nice to have someone to play with Tally. She's 9 and at first I was worried that she would spend to much time playing with Devlin but they became friends by the end of the first day. Not to much whining or pouting. ;) I'll post pictures in the next few days.

We had another nice family visit with Matt's dad and step-mom. Tally was sad when they left, so sweet. I talked to my mom on Monday morning and she asked if I was ready for another family weekend because my grandpa is coming in on Saturday with his wife and Lizzie! It'll be nice to have someone to play with Tally. I can't remember how old Lizzie is (9-10 yrs old) but I'm sure they'll get along.

Menu planning this week isn't really a plan...more like play it by ear. The weekend was a lot of eating out since we had company. Monday I threw some steaks on the foreman grill with some squash. Tuesday we had some Salisbury steaks and brussel sprouts and today I threw some chicken breast in the crockpot with teriyaki sauce and willprobably serve rice and broccoli with it. Tomorrow no clue!

Few pictures from the past few weeks with family!
