I can't think of anything...(deep sigh)... to do

Alan had to work on Saturday, and we had planned to see a movie when he got home, but he ended up working late and still wanting to see the movie but on a later date. So we had to whip up something fun for a house full of people who had done nothing but wait for Dad to get home. We ended up drawing parts of a dinner from a hat and then shopping for our part (with a $5 budget and 10 min. time limit) and preparing it for each other. It turned out pretty good. But very cheesy, you'll notice.

                                                                  Eliza's fancy menu.

  1. You people are funny. The photo of Heather all sassy in front of the modern art WINS! I also love the crazy drawing at the bottom of the menu. This is a great idea.

  2. The Wimmers win again. What a terrific idea. It was great to see the latest photos. I sent tugs of love and a smile to each person + Al.

  3. You do really good spur of the moment. And getting kids to help with dinner? Totally inspired. After reading this I had Faith make dinner last night.
