WEEKEND FUN

Enjoyable. Leisurely. Fun. Laughter. All words I would use to describe our weekend. Here are some of the highlights...




Mmmmm....perogies and farmer sausage :-) We were inspired to make perogies when we discovered that the MCC sale here does not serve them. In fact, 99% of people will give you a very quizzical look if you mention farmer sausage - no idea what it is. So on Friday Rosanna, Myra, and I spent the afternoon with Sandy and tried our hand at perogie making. We made cottage cheese, potato + cheddar, and blueberry perogies. They were sooooo good!



While we were busy rolling out dough, Myra was busy trying to eat her toes :D



The MCC sale was held this weekend in Goshen - Tim ran a 5 km race to benefit the sale and met his goal to finish under 30 minutes :-) His official time was 25:41 min.

Bath time fun...






Sunday lunch at the Olive Garden - mmmm breadsticks!



After lunch we decided to explore the park here in Elkhart and were pleased to discover a nicely paved walkway/trail along the river and lots of wide open space for picnics and enjoying nature.



This sculpture? caught our attention - on closer inspection we noticed that it is a marching band - couldn't help but take some silly pictures :-)





Cute expression...



Hoping your day is peace-filled :-)

here I thought I was crazy for checking blogs at 6:30 in the morning, sure that nobody had posted since last night. What a nice surprise! Looks like you've been having fun there - Myra just keeps getting cuter every day!

So glad to see you guys having fun! And I have to say I'm pretty impressed by the whole perogies thing, good for you girls. I love that first pic of you and Myra together, absolutely perfect! So beautiful!

How fun! Perogies you ladies are ambitious, however, if they weren't so accessible here I would be getting desparate as well.
Myra is precious as usual, such a happy honey:)

WOW - It looks like you've had so much fun! I love seeing Rosanna's HUGE smiles. That is a balm for the soul, I tell you! I guess babies have a way of doing that, eh? Myra is growing so fast. What a cutie! Glad you had a fantastic visit!!
