Pumpkin Farm 2011

While there are many pumpkin farms to choose from around here, for some reason my boys like this one the best.  Maybe, because there aren't too many people at it and they can be as wild as they want....I think that might be it..:-)

Round Up Sunday

Round up Sunday is a fun time for all the Sunday School kids   (adults too) !!  It was a little rainy though....my camera kept getting rain on the lens. Over all a great time.

Caleb's Birthday Pics

Caleb's Birthday started with breakfast in bed......then we met his cousins and aunt for lunch. In the evening we had the party with friends over and ended with a game of hide and seek throughout the neighborhood. :/ (crazy) Love my boy...had a great day celebrating his 15th Birthday!!

Recipes

I remember growing up and watching my mother look at cookbooks and more cookbooks and I used to think......my poor mother is just pretending.....to enjoy browsing through those extremely boring, useless books :)


Well, time has a way of maturing our little pea sized brains and we wake up and realize, now I am the cook who has to have a home cooked meal everyday for 30 days out of the calendar....and I have boys that are starving 45 minutes after they eat 2 sandwiches at Subway!!! Can you imagine, I can barely finish a half of a Veggie Sandwich.


So I am constantly on the alert for great and new recipes (because I believe baking has now become my full time job at Home) Wouldn't have it any other way I love baking and having the boys eat it and then I can try something new!!


So all that was to say there is a web page that has some awesome recipes on it and also some....... Copycat restaurant recipes. It is called CDKitchen. Browse through the site and see what you think.



Have a great day in the KITCHEN!!....
