Ry and I enjoyed two days of relaxation at grammy and grandpa's this weekend. I did a horrible job documenting it of course... I felt like I generally looked like crap and didn't want to be in pictures, or was just too lazy to get out the camera and try and get good shots.
Nonetheless we lounged around and Ry enjoyed her first boat ride. (Really she slept through the whole thing, but hey, they is enjoying it right?) The best part of the weekend for me, besides getting to spend time with my family of course, was getting to eat food cooked by my lovely mother. It was delicious! You can find a couple recipes below...

Ry enjoyed sleeping outside... and yes we kept her in the shade and covered in sunscreen.
Ry's first boat ride
Tarah and Berk (and Kelsey :o) came to visit "Baby Ry."
Just hanging out!
Now, for the recipes. For dinner we enjoyed three-pepper beef tenderloin roast, sauteed green beans, and brie cheese bread. My favorites were the beef and the bread. The bread could be made as a side item, or an appetizer. Hope you like them as much as I do!
