For this trip we will be driving a Toyota Sequoia (thank you, Toyota!). We’ve been toying with the idea of getting something other than a minivan and have been curious about the Sequoia, so I am excited to see how we like it! Minivans are super sexy and cool, though, so the Sequoia has its work cut out for it.

Thank you all in advance for your menus! Have a great week!

Well, as predicted, I totally did not use my menu last week! We had school events every single night and I never had time to cook or even go grocery shopping. So, I’m just copying and pasting last week’s menu. I don’t know if I’ve ever actually done this, so you’re witnessing a first! 😉

– Roasted Potatoes and Salad

TUESDAY:

SATURDAY:

Posting today’s menu is making me laugh…man, it was easy just copying last week! My grocery list is even already done. Haha! Sorry I don’t have much new inspiration for you for the week, but at least we can pull ideas from each other. Be sure to share your menu in the comments below!

I have a couple carry-overs from last week’s menu because I really dragged out leftovers as much as I could this past week. Man, the last month of school gets so busy! I imagine this week won’t go as planned, either, but at least getting a plan and the grocery shopping done will help…hopefully!

THURSDAY:
