Happenings & Menu Monday

Right when I was feeling like I was back in the groove of things, Grayson and I got slammed last Wednesday/Thursday with the stomach virus. Yuck, yuck, yuck. It was awful and I am so glad that we were the only two that miraculously got sick.
 
I feel like I have been in such a slump recently. It has been so cold and dreary & we've been cooped up inside for what feels like weeks. It's safe to say that we are all going a little bit stir crazy & we definitely miss the sunshine and warm weather.  It's been affecting my attitude lately and I was really convicted of that yesterday. I've been so grumpy between sickness, the frigid cold weather, & the super early (think before 6am) wake ups by both boys. I just wake up annoyed & I need to change that. I should be happy that I get to wake up and stay with them.  My home is like my ministry & I need to work on having a more joyful heart.
 
This is on my kitchen wall & will hopefully serve as a reminder this week!
 
Okay, on to our menu. Due to sickness, a few things were moved to this week's menu. I am also going to try at least 1 new recipe each week to keep things interesting! Here's what we are eating this week:
 
Monday: Panko Parmesan crusted chicken, roasted rosemary sweet potatoes, & green beans

Saturday: out with friends!
 
Sunday: Super Bowl party! what should I make??
