Around our house this weekend.

How is it Monday already?!?!
♦ ♦ ♦
Wanna' see my weekend in photos?
I bought this bottle of wine for the cute label. It's called "Three Wishes":
Wish #1 - I wish the name on the label had photographed better.
Wish #2 - I wish the wine had tasted better.
Wish #3 - I wish for world peace.

Not much packing happened this past weekend. I've packed everything but the things I need on hand. We're scheduled to get the keys to our new place tomorrow, and will be moving at the end of this month. More on that later this week...

I made potato salad to take to my father-in-law's house on Saturday night. It didn't turn out as yummy as the first batch I'd made, but it was ok.
And some cupcakes too...
Had a yard sale, made a little money and donated the rest to our local thrift store...
His and hers fun mail {Scrapbook magazine for me, hunting tags for him}:
Football season has begun {pre-season anyway...} so Doug spent a little time on the couch...  {Go Cardinals!!!}
Had an awesome time with Doug's dad (and family) on Saturday night. I took a bunch of family photos {at my FIL's request}. No one could hardly argue about me taking their photo because I was just doing as I was told. ;o)
Found out that our niece Karie is pregnant!  {eeeeeeeeeeeee! There's a baby in there!!!!!!}
On our way home from my FIL's late Saturday night, we stopped by the mail box and I found these lovely treats from Lizzie. I had chocolate for breakfast Sunday morning! :o)  {AMAZING chocolate turtles from this Etsy shop. Yum!} Thanks so much, Lizzie!!!
Made cookies and froze the dough to take to my mom's this weekend. ROAD TRIP!!! {Mom, I'm bringing cookies...}
Put Carrie back to brunette yesterday afternoon {she looked so pretty!}
And enjoyed the company of Marcus for a while {love him!}
And there you have it.
Phew...no wonder I didn't spend much time on the computer this weekend.
I was busy, but loving every minute.

Cheers to all of us for an amazing week!!!

Sounds perfect! I am always unduly happy when a bottle of wine has both a great label and tastes good! Can't wait for your roadtrip!!!

You've had a great weekend Deb!
There is a wine label over here called the Four Sisters and my two sisters and one sister in law like to buy it - well, we did until we tasted the wine ... we were so impressed with ourselves for a few minutes anyway!

I love seeing your weekend photos - sounds like it was a good one all round (congrats to Karie on the pregnancy!!). What a great idea to freeze the cookie dough, I must try that! Do you use an ice cream scoop to make your dough balls? xx
