What an incredibly full weekend we had!  My husband and I taught a marriage workshop at our church titled ‘Marriage Under Fire :: Keeping Marriage Healthy in Seasons of Stress’.

We jokingly commented that it stressed us out to prepare. 🙂  That is truly a joke as our own marriage was so enriched in the last few weeks of sharing and talking.  The weekend was full, but rich.

Yesterday though was some serious down time for the kids and I, they had been quite accommodating of their parents’ distraction in the last several days.  And I naturally headed to the kitchen to relax….

I’ve been wanting to try this bread machine buttery rolls recipe.  Wow!  Much improved over the recipes we’ve been using, a keeper for sure.

And I found my seeds from last year! There’s a little girl in our home who is very interested in growing food and so we’ll try some in containers.  Yesterday we started planning and plotting — such fun.

And today Daddy is home and we’ll soak in extra family time ~ a great start to the week.
