Apparently when I say “posting will be erratic” what I really mean is, see you in a week. I didn’t set out to take the whole week off from blogging but I pretty much did. Since it’s Thursday I will catch you up on the happenings around here with 3 photos. And some words to go with them, of course.
Photo Number One.
Dinner last Saturday night: swordfish, seared in the cast iron pan on the stove and then finished in the oven with blistered tomatoes and roasted asparagus. So delicious! And, since swordfish is Dale’s favorite, it counted as our Valentine’s celebration, too. We ate in the living room by the wood stove and it was lovely.
Photo Number Two.
Dale and Jack with grins. I just love that little smile on Jackie and the big smile on Dale is great, too. Jack is getting bigger by the minute and is now clocking in at nearly 17 lbs! He just had his 4 month check up and is doing very well. This photo is from Tuesday and Jessica and I had just taken Jack for his first ever walk around the neighborhood – which is the neighborhood where Jess grew up so that’s pretty cool. It was a beautiful afternoon and Jack did great. In other words, he slept through the whole thing.
Photo Number Three.
Happy Hour on the deck on Wednesday afternoon. We broke the record high temperature yesterday and it was glorious. Not only did I take the Mustang out with the top down but I wore flip flops, too. Cocktail hour outside is always our favorite way to have it but when it’s in the middle of winter it’s even sweeter.
Hope your week has been sweet, too! I’m off to SPA this morning so I’ll be spending the weekend spinning and knitting, eating and drinking, laughing and gabbing with some of my favorite people. In other words, it’s pretty much like every weekend around here.

what an awesome mid-winter break – so glad the weather cooperated! have a ball this weekend … and hope getting “back to normal” next week isn’t too hard!
I am glad you are having a great week! I am having a bit of SPA envy! Have a good time!
And, 19 lbs? Wow! Go Jackie!
Oh, man! Flip flops! That’s awesome in February! We had a couple of warm days earlier this week — but not quite flip flop weather. Especially because the warm weather was accompanied by inches of rain! But you give me hope. Flip flops and drinks on the patio. Ahhhhhhh.
Have a great time this weekend! XO
We’ve been topping out in the teens lately, so I have mixed feelings about those bare feet outside. In any event, have a SPAtacular weekend!
Enjoy your weekend!
Baby grins are the best
I’m glad you popped in to show us what a wonderful week you’ve been having, and your weekend also sounds pretty darn good. Enjoy! (I know you will!)
Those two happy guys are the best! Enjoy the rest of your week. 🙂
Have a wonderful time this weekend! (I know you will!)
Looks like your week was a happy one and I hope your weekend will be a good one too. I love that second picture, they both have great smiles 😉
Your vacay week sounds pretty sweet and you’re ending it in the best way! Have FUN!
Oh, my, have a GREAT WEEKEND!!
Jack & his grin are precious! We’ve been having crazy warm temperatures the past few days also. We’ve been sleeping with out windows open & fans running. Just crazy for February!
I am so envious of your warm weather–I cannot wait to get back into sandals! 🙂 Have a wonderful SPA weekend!
Jackie and Dale–that’s a sweet photo!
SPA—everything about it sounds great!
Food looks oh so good and the smiles on your guys’ faces cannot be beat!
Cheers~
Have a great time at SPA-I am sooo behind on my blogs. Today was a top down ride home with temps near 80! I know that means once we get used to these lovely days we’re gonna get hit up the side of the head in April or May with a cold snap. I will enjoy it while I can. Jack and Dale look so cute together!
