A late Anniversary greeting..Family in Reno..We have a date for the floor install!
We had some early morning wind! |
Sunday morning we were up early and just enjoyed the morning. Later in the day I decided to put the browning banana's to good use. Made me some peanut butter flourless muffins and Ken some banana muffins ( a new recipe). We both found things to keep us occupied!

Later in the afternoon we had our Happy Hour on the front porch while Ken bar b qued some tasty chicken breasts and thighs. It was a good day for sure.
Monday morning we got up about 0445 and got ourselves ready to head for Reno. Aaron's basketball game was at 0920. We knew where we were going since we'd been a few times before. It was raining when we left here, but not too badly. By the time we got to Reno an hour and a half later it had stopped. We found parking across the street from the convention center and walked into wall to wall people and kids of all ages who play basketball from all over the western states.
We found our way to court 19 and found the game already a few minutes in progress. Russell was the team videographer so we just waved at him. Said hi to Lori and settled in for a nail biter! Finally our boys won by 1 point! They ended up at 5th in the division so no awards for them this time.
It was still early, about 1040 so Russell wanted to go to IHOP. Haven't been to one in forever. Normally we will head for a restaurant with beer but because it was early and they wanted to get headed home IHOP it was. Honestly it was ok, but on the expensive side for what it was and very crowded. We have a $25.00 gift certificate (that was in my other purse, of course) that Dusty and Chelsea gave us for Christmas last year so we will find one again, but thinking i'll do breakfast next time even though Lori said hers was greasy.

The best parts were seeing Aaron play and spending a little time with their little family. Grandson Jacob was working the weekend so he wasn't there. After eating we all hugged good bye and drive safely.
After we left them we headed to Total Wine. We're in Reno right?!!! Found my wine, 20 percent discount coupon and a six pack for Ken. Out the door. We headed home and then Ken decided to take us the scenic route through Virginia City. A beautiful drive up the mountain and through the little tourist trap. Tons of people there! I really can't think of a time it's not packed other than the dead of winter and again who knows then?!

By the time we got home it was about 1500. Happy Hour! We got our drinks and headed over to Karen's for a bit. We had food for Jack, so good excuse right? Her mom and her daughter Amber were there so we had a nice visit. Karen was making salmon and sweet potatoes for dinner. Then what did she do?! Made a peach cobbler from her mom's tree that were frozen. My weakness!! She sent home a nice piece that I enjoyed with my coffee this am..but I didn't eat the crust so technically it was just some good peaches..right?! haha.
Monday morning I woke about 0300 with a headache, some motrin and back to sleep. We didn't get up until after 0600 this am!! I knew I was staying home so no big deal I guess. We had our breakfast and did our chores. Talking about dinner decided to have broccoli pizza for dinner..yum.
Ken left for his physical therapy appointment and I proceeded to get the crust done and the toppings all cut up. Once he got back we had our salad lunch. Cleaned the kitchen and Ken went outside to do a few things.
This little goodie was extra..so I added pepper jack, grilled chicken, mushrooms and jalapeño |
Ken's at the top..mushroom, olive and oyster Mine at the bottom, onion, bell pepper, jalapeños and a little grilled chicken.. |
We've got some warmer temps coming this week so that'll be nice. Nice afternoon but been cloudy most of the day.
By not updating daily I forgot to wish our youngest son, Russell and his bride Lori, Happy 22nd Anniversary here on the blog. They were married May 24, 1997 at the young age of 18. Happy Anniversary you two!

Last but not least we got the estimate for the kitchen floor. It's a go on June 11th! So excited to get that done.
Happy Hour! Have a great evening everyone!
