This Grilling Thing is New to Us

Our friends, Sam and Sean, blessed us with their old grill. Sean bought a new grill for his birthday and decided to pass along this one to us. Trey and I have wanted one for years, but never got around to buying one.

Taking a quick break from the grill to get some lovin'


Last night, we were so excited to fire it up. I bought Trey and Tasha drumsticks and marinated them in BBQ sauce. I’m not a big fan of drumsticks, so I had a chicken breast and marinated it in chili powder, honey, limejuice, and cilantro. We also made a big vegetable pack. It was loaded with all kinds of veggies. Oh, and I used the Melting Pot’s: Wine and Garlic seasoning on the veggies….so good! Ladies from church….that stuff is amazing!

So, I did all the prep work and Trey did the grilling. I want him to show me how to use it, so maybe next time I can drive. Trey doesn’t usually help me with dinner, so it was nice working together to make a delicious meal.

While we were doing all that Tasha, took care of Cheyenne. I could really get use to having her around. She’s only been in town since Sunday, but she has been so helpful. I don’t even think she realizes it. If I need to pick up the kitchen or sweep the floor she keeps an eye on Cheyenne. Today, she’s even folding laundry for me. Oh, the little things that make me happy.

I still have to work, so she’ll be staying at home during the week watching TV and chatting online. Yesterday, we spent the day in Arlington. We took a campus tour at UTA and from there went and spent the rest of the afternoon at the mall. About the UTA tour, it’s never too early to start thinking about college…(Tasha). Oh, and Cheyenne was such a good girl on the tour, even though it was hot she didn’t complain too much and was very patient waiting for her diaper to be changed.
