It's Our Anniversary!


Yes, we've hit another year, "15" in fact! The other day we had so much fun reminiscing with the kids. We've told them hundred times how we got married but they asked again. This time they actually paid attention to the details.
I can't believe I'm sharing these but here is a photo of when we first started dating.


I can't find my photo album right now. These were extras. They'll work for now. Man were we young!



There's one more photo I wanted to share but haven't dug it out yet. I'll post it later. Along with our wedding story!

In A Stump!

I usually love planning meals but for some reason this past Sunday I had no appetite. Which made it really hard to decided what we would be having for the week. It also didn't help that I was looking forward to this weekend with my Hubby. We will be celebrating our "15th" wedding anniversary! I plan on eating a lot of great food that I won't be making!
So I had to research and dig to become motivated. Eventually, I came across some great ideas. This is what my week's meals looked like.
Monday- Chicken Fajitas
Tuesday- Satay noodles
Wednesday- Corn Chowder
Thursday- Tostadas
Friday- Eat Out!
Saturday- Pizza
Sunday- Salsbury steak

Satay noodles! They were so yummy and pretty easy to make. It just took a lot of prep work. I really liked this meal because you can change it up and add different things to it. I found the recipe from Rachael Ray's site. Here's the end product.

I added shrimp, spinach, radish and fish cake. Yum-O!
This coming week I'm gonna try Indian fry bread. I've watched my Sis-in-law make it and I think I can accomplish it. Wish me luck!

Baseball...My (our) Life!


Kenny just finished high school ball and is now beginning Babe Ruth (city league). I had to take just a few more pictures in his hs uniform. He's wearing RED and BLACK now but next year he'll be wearing my hs colors, GREEN and GOLD!!
He is now a Mariners. His first game was Saturday and he did great! We were worried that there might be issues because he's coming in late due to hs ball. Nothing to worry about though, they put him right in and he feels apart of the team. Doesn't he look great in these uniforms? I think so! I can't believe how old he looks.


Mateo has a big game tonight. His team is tied for first! It's gonna be a good game. Bad thing is, the boys are playing at the same time. I don't like having to choose between who I go watch. I think I'm going to split it up, start at one and finish at another. Mateo has been having some amazing games, lately. He started off kinda rocky but has really been showing everyone what a great ball player he is.
I've said it before but I'll say it again. "I just LOVE watching my boys play!"

Here's a quick pic of the girls staying busy during the game. They always have a blast playing at the ball field. We bring them tons of stuff to keep them busy and they always find friends to play with.

Finally...Something on the Wall!

My walls have been empty and I've been dying to put something up. It's just been so hard to figure out how I want everything to look. I also don't like putting a bunch of holes in the wall! Well I finally put something up. I've been working on a couple of projects for the house and here is the first.

I love writing out our meals for the week. I also get tired of everyone asking me, "what's for dinner?"
Solution: Menu chalkboard

This is what it looked like when I picked it up from the thrift store. I got really lucky and found an out-dated chalkboard. So I sanded, painted and added some vinyl.
I really love the way it turned out!
Wait till you see my next project (in the works)! Stay tuned!
