The weather here was nothing to write home about today… especially after hearing from both April and Dad about the beautiful 85 degree day they were enjoying! I am really looking forward to those hot summer days of lying around the lake, jumping in, and then boating over to Moosebirds for an ice cream cone!
I’m in this funky “I don’t know what I should be doing” phase, as I to get rid of the last of our stuff. It seems there’s just a whole bunch of junk all over the place, but there’s no where to move it to. We’ve mailed a bunch of tubs / bags home to Minnesota – trying to beat the increased post office rates that go into effect on Monday! Ahhh, how sweet it will be to board the plane in under two weeks and have the moving done… for now.
 
Bill’s back pack came in today, and he’s got it packed for Ireland. He’s ready to go… I’m still wondering how I’m going to fit all of my shoes now that Bill’s requiring I pack a sleeping bag. 😉 We’ve got our first 3 nights and our last night booked in Dublin. The rest of our time will be spent pointing on the map and deciding where to go next.
Finally, dinner was pretty tasty tonight. Bill convinced me to put it in this post. (I’m already fighting the betty crocker comments from my family.) 🙂 At any rate, I’ve been told you don’t have to be a great cook… you just have to have a few dishes that you make well. I think I’ve perfected my pizza this past year. Tonight’s version included grilled chicken breast and tomato & basil chicken sausage with mozzarella & cheddar. I expect this recipe to be over used. 🙂
Hey Betty!!! Nice looking pizza!!! It looks yummy!! Love ya…….Lo
hey…. lookin’ good! I can’t wait to try your pizza.
Hope you were able to get some more stuff packed and sent home.
bye betty,
xoxo
Hi Erin, can’t wait to try the pizza, it looks good, butis it as good as Grandma’s? Can’t wait to see you, and do some tubbin’ and tubin’!! Love ya Stanny
Good job, my little Betty! So, my question to you is, who started calling you Betty first?
Hang in there and don’t get frustrated about the move. If it’s not important enough to pack, why not donate to someone who may use it?
Love you and Bill lots and lots,
Mom
Hi Erin!
I am loving the backpack. I am wondering if yours is anywhere near as big and full, if you will be able to stay upright 🙂
I am so happy to hear you are enjoying as much of the time left in Unalakleet as possible. It does look a little chilly there though.
I think it’s pretty cute you family calls you Betty Crocker. My sister started calling me Stacie Crocker. Must be those fine cookbooks we made last Christmas!
Missing you!
Stacie
I want that pizza…and I want to go inside your backpack to Ireland…by the way packing is no fun!
Life will be so much easier when you get to MN.
Miss you.
Tiff:)
