#100HappyDays :: Day 48

Father's Day was a leisurely day spent enjoying the warm weather.  When I asked B what he wanted for dinner he suggested that we try doing some fried chicken over a bonfire.  We have done quite a bit of bonfire cooking in the past and it seemed the perfect day for it.

We moved our table from the porch into the shade by the bonfire and all spent the late afternoon and evening outside, hanging out, listening to music, cooking, playing Frisbee, and Sidney spent some of her time making flower crowns and drawing.

When it was time to eat, the chicken and biscuits were perfect, and we did a simple cabbage salad dressed in poppyseed dressing that the kids gobbled up seconds of.  The perfect way to spend an absolutely beautiful day.

Gotta Love Fall Weekends

What a difference a few days makes!  We had a beautiful weekend, temperatures reaching 70 made it perfect for being outside and working diligently on the fall cleanup.  It was a weekend of:

fallen branch collecting

pancetta starting

volleyball playing

hamburger grilling

compost moving

leaf jumping

and pudgy pie making

Thankfully we got a big chunk of the work done last weekend, as this weekends highs are predicted to be in the low 40's, and windy with the possibility of a few wet snow showers!  Gotta love these late fall weekends!
