Happy Monday everyone! I hope you all had an amazing weekend! I know I did. I got to hang out with both of my sister and their sons. We walked at the park, shopped, ate, and just spent time together. It was so nice. Saturday, I decided to make lasagna for dinner. I made a regular lasagna for the guys, but crated a white chicken lasagna for us ladies!
