Brooks' birthday was this past week. Don't you just love birthdays? I keep them simple, but that way I can be consistent. I always hang up a poster the night before that says 'Happy Birthday, _________' and surround it with balloons. During their birthday day they don't have to do their jobs, they get to choose any dinner they want, and then after dinner we open presents with cake and ice cream. Because Keaton had a mandatory festival he had to attend the night of Brooks birthday, we had pan'cakes' for breakfast which got lit up with candles. He was so excited he got to open his presents before school instead of after dinner. That way, he got to wear his new 'Bountiful Lacrosse' shorts to school on his birthday!
My menu for the week:
Monday: Steak Fajitas
Tuesday: Chicken Fettucine Alfredo, Spinach Salad and Fresh Fruit
Wednesday: Turkey and Quinoa Meatloaf, Fresh Asparagus, and Strawberries
Thursday: French Dip Sandwiches, Cottage Fries, and Vegetable Plate
Friday: Omelets and Muffins
Saturday: Mom's Night Off!
Sunday: Lemon and Garlic Roast Chicken with Sauteed Vegetables and Crusty French Bread
