Chasing Callie!

Trent Time!

4.06.2008

Home Sweet Home

If we had to be home, it couldn't have been a more perfect weekend. Nothing on the schedule and beautiful weather. It seems the whole neighborhood was out and about. There were so many kids at the park. Trent spent all weekend there. I recognized some of his old friends, but there we're so many new kids! The gang has created these great tag-like games. Trent is the youngest, but he can finally keep up.
Marshall was the meal man this weekend, Pancakes and Bacon for breakfast. For dinner, Island Soy Vey Grilled Pork Tenderloin, Pineapple, and of course....Pain Killers. I rarely drink. Not because of principal, or health reasons, mainly because I hate to pay for drinks. I drank more on our trip than I have in the last 3 years! My Mom makes a wicked Pain Killer! Its true, Rum is more abundant than water in the islands!

It seems including recipes is a popular blogging thing to do so I included the Pain Killer's recipe.

1 ounce Orange Juice
4 ounces Pineapple Juice
1 ounce Coco Lopez (coconut cream)
2 ounces Dark Rum
Mix well, pour over ice, sprinkle with nutmeg and top with a cherry.

We made them in a pitcher, so adjust accordingly. CHEERS!

Jenny,
Ive had so much fun reading all your blogs and seeing the pictures. Looks like your recent trip was a ton of fun!

I haven't seen you or the family since Arizona maybe?! Thats a really long time... Trent is so grown up from when I last saw him. And Ive never even met Callie. Time really does fly!

Miss you all!
