Weekend of Firsts

This weekend was busy as ever and full of some fun "firsts" for our family.  Saturday was one of those days where we packed in as much as we could starting with Luke's last T-ball game of the season.  Afterwards, he received his first set of trophies of which he is so very, very proud.  I think he has slept with them every night since.



After the T-ball game, we took him to his first ever concert by the Imagination Movers  Any other mom's out there love these guys?  They're like the Beastie Boys for preschoolers.  I was so impressed by their show and it's always an awesome feeling to see your child having so much fun!  The guys kept the kids on their feet and interacted with them a lot.  Luke got to shake hands with Mover Dave which was quite a highlight for him.   He also got his first tour t-shirt... a must.


After the concert, we went to our favorite date place, Pinkberry.  It was my husband's first time at Pinkberry and I think he's now officially a fan!  I had the Lychee flavor while my husband and Luke both went with the Original.  Here's our yummy creations...or what's left of them!


I also had endive for the first time this weekend.  I stuffed the leaves with chicken, red peppers and a Dijon vinaigrette but I must admit...I was not a fan.  Anyone else out there not like endive?  I found it too bitter but maybe I just picked some bad ones?  I'm not sharing the recipe on the blog because it's just not good enough for ya'll! I promise to only share my favorites here.  There's nothing worse than trying a recipe posted on a blog only for it to turn out less than great.  Who has time for that?



On Sunday, we kept it classy and filled up the $10 plastic pool on the back deck for the first time this year.  Worth every penny!  I did my nails and folded a basket of laundry while the kiddos splashed around and cooled off.



I also thought I'd share some garden photos with ya'll.  Here are my lilies going strong after being divided last year!


And my first pink hydrangea bloom from a plant that was rooted from my sister's yard.  Must plant more hydrangea....I love them so.


And here's little man Jett having fun with a giant plastic ball.  It's all about the cheap entertainment folks.


 Thanks for checking in today.  Did you enjoy any fun "firsts" this weekend?
