Abolutely Fabulistically

Is that a word? Well, it has been...an absolutely fabulous weekend so far. We got to Phoenix yesterday, hotter than hell fire here...but its dry so its not unbearable. We ate homemade chicken soup (not exactly a hotter than hell summer meal but hey...it was gooder than good) and homemade bread toasted with butter and the best part...fresh squeezed lemonade (lemons off their lemon tree) with mint and splenda. UMMMMM YUMMMMM. We both were eating it up. Last night we went to their favorite (old people ritual) Friday night Italian spot in town. Had some more homemade food. Call us fat asses about now. Came back home and laid in bed and watched tv on the new flat screen in the guest room. Relaxing is an understatement.

Today...well today...slept in...woke up to my awaken/energetic/insane boyfriend who has already worked out, fetched some coffee for all, taken buddy for a long walk. That makes for one happy mamma. We sat around and chatted with mom and mr. sir for a while. I went to lay in back in bed and read while the sweet boyfriend helped mr. sir in the garage. Mela and i decided to go get pedicures. Flag painted feet and ready to eat again...we landed at a mexican place and had some margaritas (JL insisted on petrone tequila) chips and salsa...left feeling gooooood.

We recently just retrieved eachother from our fat asses on the floats in the pool...hot shower and ready to do what? eat again. My mom has cooked my favorite, special, yummy yum yum meal. Brisket, her style, cheese/garlic/chive mashed potatoes, homemade bread, wine, ok i will stop. Romeo has been in heaven this entire time. Running around the backyard oasis, playing with the queen girl, lounging on mela's bed which is his happy place.

Off to take him on a walk along the cacti neighborhood...wish me no prickly stickers!

Happy 4th!!!!!!!
