This is confirmed by the sounds of birds chirping filling the morning air of North East Ohio again! The sun rises earlier and sets later, allowing us more time to savor the sights, sounds and smells of the season!
As for the McCarthy's, we had a thoroughly enjoyable weekend! On Friday evening, we arranged for Nathan to play with some friends, which allowed Liesel and myself to go the movies and enjoy a delicious meal at Aladdin's (an awesome little Middle Eastern restaurant.) Our New Year's resolution of having a date night at least once a month still seems to be on track!
On Saturday - another gorgeous day - we had time to visit Nathan's favorite playground! Later that day, I went off in search of a gas griller, so that we can take full advantage of the upcoming season and braai (barbecue) outside. Our new griller is actually a belated house warming gift from Liesel's parents, and we are very grateful to them for their generosity! We wish you could be here regularly to taste the meat that will be cooked on that grill. There is an open invitation to all our friends and family to come and share a barbecue with us if you are in the area!
That evening we returned the favor to our friends, the Talmages (who looked after Nathan the day before), and we looked after their two daughters, and let them have a date night too. Nathan just loves playing with their girls and they keep each other busy most of the time. Their artistic sides came out in full force, as they decorated our patio with beautiful colors - courtesy of pavement chalk. Here they are proudly displaying their artwork to the camera! Along side that photo is a picture of our new gas grill!
