Alarm Clocks & Elbows

This weekend, my mom flew down to spend some time with us and to see our new home. She was our first visitor from Oklahoma, so we had fun taking her to our beaches & favorite restaurants and showing her the birds & the views of Rockport. When she arrived on Friday, she was greeted with a beautiful sunny day, but of course, Saturday and Sunday (when we were planning to take her kayaking) were cloudy and windy. Our solution: Cook good food all weekend! We made homemade stacked pizza, 3 gallons of salsa, cheesecake brownies, frozen fruit cups, a delicious new cucumber salad, and fruit pizza.

Not only did my mom break in my new kitchen, but she also created a new alarm clock for Albert (ask her for details) and threw her elbow out playing tennis on the Wii. Needless to say, it was a fun weekend!
