Family and Food

After 19 hours in the car together, bonding through a cross country road trip, we finally arrived at our destination..... Colorado Springs and Justin and Amanda's house. 

We had a wonderful day just hanging out together, eating lunch at their fave Thai restaurant, taking a giant nap together to sleep off some of our crabbiness from not getting sleep the night before, and then finally planning our week and buying groceries at the Whole Food Store.  That store rocks!  I wonder if there is one in Indianapolis.

We got back to the house and prepared this gourmet feast for our families!



We shopped for the olive tray at Whole Food Store.  We got three different kinds...garlic stuffed, mixed with feta, and a mixed olive variety.  They were sooooooooo good!

We also had the guys pick out several varieties of cheeses for us to try.  Here's the finished product.



A special tray we put together with brie and strawberry jam.

We also had some sourdough bread and 12 grain sprouted bread for us to dip in olive oil.

Finally, we decided that we needed to have some roughage to ensure that all of the cheese did not decide to take root in our systems.

And then finally, here is us..... enjoying it all.
