It was a good weekend overall, but time with the family and days spent operating at a slower pace are ALWAYS good :)
I went roller skating at the local roller rink with my 11-year-old cousin on Friday night, this was also a wise choice. I felt like I was fifteen again- happy, goofy, coordinated, and energetic. Kids tend to have that effect on me. Kids are awesome.

We did all the silly games you're supposed to play at the roller rink, and we did the chicken dance, the hokey pokey, the YMCA (a personal favorite), and I may have rocked out to a little Carly Rae Jepsen ....this was totally just an attempt to entertain the 11-year-old....it's not like this song is on my running play list or anything ;)
Then I tried my hand at making hot potato salad and "pink stuff" for our family dinner. (Paleo friends, stop reading now...) "Pink stuff" was always a staple at our Thanksgiving dinners and my grandma mentioned that it sounded good...and when your grandmother mentions that something sounds good, you get your butt to the store to buy ingredients and you make it!!!!! "Pink stuff" consists of cottage cheese, pineapple, jello, and cool whip. Mine also contained marshmallows....I swear I saw marshmallows on the recipe and I bought them at the store so I figured I might as well throw them in. It's actually pretty tasty, albeit completely unnatural ;)

I'm also sort of hooked on this song by Jason Aldean. And here's some pictures from my road trip. (Rode solo this time, my awesome brother and sister-in-law watched the mutt.)
