Menu Plan - Week of 2/02

We are going to be eating fairly simply for the early part of this week. I'll be busy finishing stocking the freezer (and enjoying freezer food made in January) for the trip to Blissdom, and doing all the other things that go along with that. Right at the top of that list is fitting in some extra time to cuddle with my kiddos and spend time with Eric.

Eric and the kids will me to the airport early Thursday morning and pick me up early Sunday afternoon. My plan is to have as much made ahead of time as I can, whether it's in the freezer or the refrigerator. My brother-in-law will be giving the kids dinner one night, and my father-in-law will be doing it the other, so I want things to be as easy as possible for everyone.
