Yes, I took another short blogging break, but what can I
say? I’ve been outdoors enjoying the spring sunshine and warm weather, both
very welcome after such a long, cold winter.
Stephen’s parents were in town last week, and we had a great
time hosting them at our house for the first BBQ of the spring season.
Using the new Webber grill that his family gave us for Christmas, Stephen cooked up
a tasty batch of blue cheese burgers, which we served along with red wine and Greek salad. It
was all so delicious, and we had such a fun time, that I didn’t even remember to
snap any pictures of the meal. Though we’ve only done it a couple times so far, hosting
dinners at our new house is quickly becoming one of my favorite activities.
While his dad was working, Stephen, his mom and I also
braved a rainy day to head to the Udvar-Hazy Air & Space Museum and one of
our favorite wineries, Fabbioli Cellars. As always, we had a great time there, and came home with a nice red to enjoy the next time we grill.
How have you been welcoming spring? Do you love spending
time outdoors when the weather warms up?
I love hosting friends and family- esp. This time of year- glad you had such a nice time woth Stephen's parents!
