Friday:)

Last night I made a Pork Roast, so tonight I am using the leftovers to make BBQ Pulled Pork.


It is in the crockpot cooking slow.



The Pulled Pork will go on the homemade rolls I made






Also, on the menu is corn on the cob:)






So that is our dinner tonight, along with a salad!

This week seemed to just fly by.
Summer is almost here, and school will be out.
It has been really pretty outside lately. The windows are open and my grass seems to have come back really nice.

I don't have anything planned this weekend, just hoping to spend a nice, quiet weekend with my family:)

What Are They Looking For?

I was watching them the other day and they were looking this way for sometime, I couldn't figure out what was so interesting in the little drainage hole there, but they sure did...so I snapped some pictures, because they were so cute, looking at something. I later found out after I snapped the pictures, Alexis has dropped the *diamond* ring I had given to her in the drain hole in the grass. Daddy went out there and unscrewed the cover and got the ring, WHEW:) She was so worried about getting that ring back, and her little brother was trying so hard to help her.





The ring was just a piece of costume jewelry...but she loves it:)

Friday!


Happy Friday!

Getting ready for Easter. I will be making a ham dinner for Easter:) I will make of course with it, deviled eggs, salad, asparagus, some sort of potato dish, Macaroni and Cheese, and veggies.

I will post exactly what I make with pictures:) I love the green bean casserole, but it seems I am the only one that eats it, and it is my favorite. I also want to make potato salad.

I also have Kevin's Birthday Party to get ready for the following Saturday. He is turning 4. 4!!??? Can you believe it? I sure can not.

The weather here has been chilly, high 50's low 60's. My husband was in Northern California this week, and he got back last night at dinner time. I love it when he is home. I am sure he is glad to be home, after traveling for vacation and then work, I am sure he is traveled out for awhile..LOL.

Last night's dinner we had pork chops, mashed potatoes, peas, and a salad. Tonight's dinner will be Tacos.

I bought a new toilet cleaner, the Kaboom Foamtastic Toilet Bowl Cleaner, and I really like it. I love the smell of clean.



Oh, I almost forgot, Awhile back, I am not sure if I mentioned it, but Kevin got me a steam cleaner. We used it when we got it, and then this week, I used it again. I did Our bedroom. the upstairs hallway and the the living room. I just love when my carpets are clean. I do not like spots, they bug me...LOL.




Also, I love the smell of Vanilla, I even wear vanilla body spray. When I was in Georgia, my Mil's home smelled so lovely. I asked her how she kept her home smelling so good all the time, and she uses the Vanilla warmers that plug into the wall. I use those, but haven't refilled them for awhile. So when we got back, I refilled the warmers with vanilla, and my house smells so nice now. You can totally smell it, especially when you go outside and come back in:)

Happy Friday, YES IT IS FRIDAY!!!! Time for another cup of coffee:)

Tuesday:)




When we were flying home from Georgia, we were supposed to be on a bigger plane with TV's to watch. They changed our plane and instead of a big plane we were on a small plane with TV's in the isle, and of course our seat's headphone units were broken. SOOOOO, I read this book:) Kevin had his laptop, so the kids were able to play games. I also had learning books and that really kept little Kevin busy for awhile:) The flight both ways was actually not that bad. Lot's of snacks and things to keep everyone busy helped a lot! Our little dog came too.

I will start with those 2 things for now.
The bathrooms should take a good while. Oh, but when they are clean it will be so nice:)


The weather today is a bit chilly, 63 degrees.

Happy Cleaning Day

Shopping Day!

Happy Wednesday! Today was my shopping day.
We did a little shopping when we got back, but I really needed to do a big shopping trip.

I clipped and printed out coupons for products that I use.

So, today, I spent $194.00~~~BUT, I saved $96.00 dollars in coupons and my club card:)
YaY!!

Right now, I am baking bread!
So we will have homemade dinner rolls with my roasted chicken, that I got for about 3.00:)

Happy Tuesday.

Time to make a fresh pot of coffee!

Tuesday!

Hello!

We had such a wonderful time in Georgia!

We did not take a lot of pictures, but we did get some at one of my favorite restaurants:)

Cracker Barrel

I did a bunch of laundry, now I have to put it all away.
Isn't it funny, when you are away from home, there is still so much to do when you get back?

While I was in Georgia, I saw an episode of Extreme couponing. Have any of you seen that show? Could you imagine walking out of the store with 1,200 dollars worth of groceries for only 100.00, wow:)
I clipped some coupons, so tomorrow, we shall see how much I can save!

Tonight we are having Tacos for dinner:)

Happy Tuesday!

Thursday!


Is it already Thursday? This week is just flying by.

I am trying to get everything done before vacation.

My son's crown fell out, so I have to take him to the dentist to get it put back in tomorrow.

Laundry, Laundry, Laundry.

The weather has been so beautiful. Little Kevin is just having so much fun blowing bubbles and chalk...and his very favorite is the water balloons:) I have a little color now, too.

Tonight's dinner was roasted chicken.

I am off to bed, I am sleepy.

See you in the morning.

I will post before vacation:)

Tuesday!

Good morning. Hope everyone had a wonderful weekend. Our grill broke a few months back, so over the weekend we got a new grill. On Saturday we grilled steak and asparagus, and then on Sunday, I made Shish Kabob's, beef and chicken. The picture below is of the beef. On the chicken skewers I added pineapple.

I also made some baby new potatoes:)


This week, school is half days and then next week is spring break. We are going to Georgia for the week, so we are very excited about that. I am going to have a house sitter, so my home will be taken care of. I wish some of you lived near Atlanta, so we could visit:) Today I am going to do a bunch of spring cleaning, and when I get back from vacation, I will finish:) We will have our own TV on the plane, but I am going to bring my Little House books to read:) Tonight's dinner is going to be skinless, boneless chicken breasts with steamed veggies:) Happy Tuesday!

Hello!
Here is a picture of the Macaroni Salad I made last night
The recipe is in the post below this one.
It was very good, I must say:)

Here is the Apple Bread I made..It smelled like Christmas in my home while it was baking. It was cold outside like it was Christmas too:)


Little Kevin and I have very sensitive skin, this is some laundry detergent I picked up at Walmart yesterday. Free and Clear:)



Some of you may know, I collect cows. I love cows. Here are two little cows I have that I wanted to share.




Eating watermelon..aren't they cute?




Happy Wednesday!
Tonight's Dinner:

Steak
Noodles with Garlic and butter
Steamed veggies
Salad

It is also cold outside today, the rains are supposed to come this afternoon. The last couple of weeks had been quite warm, I had a nice tan going, I was hoping when we went to Georgia, I would still be tan, but with this cold weather and rain, it doesn't look like I will be able to keep my tan...Oh well! :)
Happy Day
