an afternoon with the family

Am enjoying Sunday. But we have been very tired all day. Didn't sleep too good last night. Went to church this morning and had trouble staying awake. Probably due to staying up too late last night. We had dinner guests. Was fabulous. Mum cooked the food and we entertained our guests. Mum cooked Roulladen (beef olives) and red cabbage and a beautifull and very delicious black forest cake. I picked it all up at 6pm and all I had to do was cook some pasta and keep it warm until 7pm. Everyone loved the food. Was absolutely delicious and we all ate too much. Probably another reason why we didn't sleep that well.
Michael (son) and his family arrived early afternoon for a late lunch. had plenty of food left over from the night before. Had bought some home-made pasta at the Market and so I made a couple of sauces...bolognaise and seafood. Heated up the leftover roulladen and devoured what was left of the blackforest cake. Now I am tired AND full! Was good to see our granddaughters. Haylee started her own blog so have added a link to my blog. She will initially be an infrequent blogger until they get a PC and internet access. The PC is in my bedroom still in a box. Have to install it and check it out before delivering it to them.
Apart from enhoying their company, another good thing about visitors is that the house gets really cleaned! Feels so good when it looks tidy and not so crowded with junk. Pity it never lasts long in that state!
