A Weekend with my favorite people

Another weekend has come to a close.
It was a good one.
I am so blessed that my girls love to come home and spend time together and with John, my mom, and I.
Alissa came up on Friday night to spend the weekend with us.  Nathan had his annual camping trip so it was a good time for her to come up.
Lissa, my mom, Mallory, and I went to On The Rock on Friday night for pizza and beer. 
We had another pitcher at Firecracker.
It was so much fun.
Lots of memories, laughs, and great conversation.
I love how Mallory is just like one of my girls and I love how my mom is really a cool 86 year old lady who can sit in a bar and drink beer with us.

On Saturday, Courtney, Paul and the girls arrived.
We had an afternoon of canvas painting.
I was a bit uninspired but the others did some great paintings and we all had so much fun.
We had brats for dinner.
Mallory went out the the girls and Paul for the night while John and I enjoyed some great TV time with Soli and Tiz.
It was such a fun, laid back Saturday.

Today we all went to church together, Mallory and Kev, too, just like the old days.
We had lunch together, just like the old days.
Soli decorated the table for us with whatever birthday and holiday decor I had.
It was so nice to sit together around that table and enjoy more together time.
Alissa left after lunch for her long drive home.
I know she had a great time.
She starts her new job in two weeks.
She is so excited about that and I am so happy for her.

Courtney, Paul. the girls and I headed over to the Art Fair in Oconomowoc. 
It was a fun time.
The girls were able to make some art projects and we watched a dance troop perform.
We all enjoyed some ice cream treats at the Kiltie and then the Van Aukens left for home, too.

The house is quiet.
I miss having everyone around here, but I am so glad they love coming home!

Tomorrow it is registration.
Yep, another year is about to begin.
I hope it is a good one.
