Weekend Wrap-Up ~ September 28, 2020

 Happy Monday!  Linking up today with Tanya for a quick review of the weekend.

Friday night was spent pretty low key at home.  Actually, this summed up my whole weekend!

After a week of random events at night, I had not cooked much, so it was nice to be home and cook a good dinner Friday night.  We had sliced sirloin steak, potatoes, and roasted carrots and onions.  We watched the first episode of Challenger, The Final Flight.  I am a space fan and am curious to watch the next episode.  That may determine if I finish it, although it is a very short series.  I also watched Father of The Bride, part 3 ish :)

My husband was gone all day Saturday and Sunday, so Brook and I ran some errands on Saturday.  Sunday, we went to church and I caught up on some house stuff and watched a Hallmark movie.  

While out running errands I noticed a section of cards for Veterans Day, November 11th.  This is my birthday and while I have always known my birthday is on Veterans Day every year, I had never noticed a section of cards for this holiday.
Speaking of birthdays, even though mine is 6 weeks away, my dear friend who lives in South America but is currently in the USA, sent me an early birthday gift since this year will be a milestone birthday for me.  I have a collection of Willow Tree, so I was excited to get a new piece to add to the collection.

While out on Saturday, I bought a mum to add to the front porch.  They aren't in bloom yet, so we will see if that happens.  I think we are in the clear to plant a mum in September without thinking it will wilt away due to lingering summer heat.  
Lastly, I found an old, small DVD player the girls would use when they were younger on road trips...pre-cell phone time.  I plugged it up and watched an old Huey Lewis concert while making dinner this weekend. 

Now off to a busy, rainy Monday here.  Hope yours is a good one!

  3. I want to watch the new Father of the Bride. What'd you think? Yay for your birthday coming up!!! I get so excited about birthdays, haha! We collect Willow Trees at our house too. My second daughter is named Willow, so when she was born, the collection started. :) Hope your mums turn out beautiful. I haven't picked any up yet but want to.

  4. Your mums look great. Nov 11 is my son's birthday too. Usually our school choir has a big Veteran's day concert on that date...not this year I'm sure. Have a great week.
