Mid to late August , 2023: Other fun happenings at our house

It's been a very BUSY month for us! Lots of travel, lots of family events, lots of friends over, and lots of backyard planning.

Mike and I had a fun lunch date at the Oak Tree Cafe (on Alameda). Their cheeseburgers are huge and delicious. We went to the movies to see "Equalizer 3" later that day--twas fun.

My first attempt at making this crockpot yogurt recipe was a great success! You save 1/2 cup of the yogurt to make your next batch.

Monday, August 28th: We had an impromptu date night with our eldest ABQ grandson, Hudson Dunlap. I picked him up after school, took him to Albertson's to pick out movie treats, and took him to our house to play pool with his grandpa. We had a small dinner together and played Upside Down Challenge game with him. Then we went to see "Meg 2" with him at Century Rio 24. We all enjoyed the film, but it was late for Hudson on a school night when we drove him home. I'm so glad we had that time with him. We want to do that with Tyler, Mario, and Milo too!
