Love!! Wii Sports Resort

Wii just came out with a great new game called Wii Sports Resort. It has some of the classics like bowling, golf and ping pong from the first Wii Sports game but it adds a lot more. Our favorites our archery and sword fighting so far. But they've also added cycling, canoeing, skydiving, frisbee and many more. We've been playing it for the past few days and have had a lot of fun with it, so much that I have a sore Wii arm!

I am just so happy tomorrow is Friday and our Lake Geneva getaway is finally here! I have had a really rough week with work so I am looking forward to this weekend so much.

I will blog about our weekend next week.

Menu Monday

I love planning menus. Whether its for a party I'm hosting or just our weekly meals, I love to plan, prep, organize and make lists for the menu. Every week Michael and I make a menu for the week's meals. It helps get rid of the question every day after work heard around the world, "What are we having for dinner tonight?" It actually really helps keep cost down too since we only buy what we need for that week's menu. So every Monday I will post our planned menu for the week.

Monday: BBQ ribs, fresh herb potatoes, sweet corn from the farmstand
Tuesday: Chicken Parmesan over penne
Wednesday: Polish sausage and pierogies
Thursday: Homemade Pizza
Friday: Beer Can Chicken

Meet our puppy Porkchop!

Porkchop Applesauce Dworianyn is our puppy. He celebrated his 2nd birthday on July 14th. We got him only 2 weeks after moving into our house. It was a little crazy, but he was such a good puppy from the very beginning.

This is a picture from the day we brought him home. He was so tiny, only a little over a pound!

He is spoiled rotten and we treat him like he is our baby. He is a bonifide member of the family and we take him pretty much everywhere we go. When he was really little I used to bring him shopping with me in a puppy tote.

People who have pets will totally understand, but there is just nothing like coming home to an animal that is always happy to see you and missed you all day long. We love taking him for walks and visits to Petsmart. He is hilarious at Petsmart around all the other dogs and not to mention the toys and rawhides. He absolutely loves it!

Here are a few more of my favorite Porkchop pics!

Upcoming Trips

One of the things Michael and I love most is to travel. Whether it is just a weekend getaway, or our 16 day honeymoon to Mexico, we just love getting away from work and everything else going on. We have many trips we are looking forward to in the next year.

In 2 weeks we are going on a romantic weekend to the Grand Geneva Resort in Lake Geneva Wisconsin. It is one of our favorite quick getaway destinations. It has such a cute little downtown area with restaurants and shops. My favorite shop ever is actually in Lake Geneva. It's called the Cornerstone Shoppe. The Grand Geneva Resort is beautiful; they just remodeled all of their rooms and put in a new pool.

In October, we are going to one of our favorite family destinations, Disney World in Orlando. My parents belong to the Vacation club there so we are able to go there often, which is really fun. I can't wait to bring our kids there! It is a really cheap vacation too since we stay for free and usually fly for free with miles.

The trip we are most excited about is our 2-week trip to California next year. We are still in the planning stages, but our plan is to start by flying into San Diego and drive up the coast to San Francisco. Neither of us have been to California so I think it will just be an awesome experience for us.

Our New Blog

Welcome to the Dworianyn blog! I love reading blogs so much, so I thought it would be fun to start my own. I am going to talk about anything and everything going on currently in our nest. We love to travel, cook, take on home improvement projects and we're passionate about many sports. I am also hoping that one day soon I'll be blogging about starting a family!
