The Story

My mom got a blog like a year ago but didn't blog a lot, however with my hospital visit being rather traumatic mom got to writing so if you want to know the story from a mothers point of view go check her out! She has done some blogs since then but the story starts with Post 1: The Beginning of the Worst Week of Our Lives (there are three total) Click on the side where it says February if you want a direct link to the first two. HERE Leave her a comment, she would love it and let me know what you think!

Pippy Poo

We played in the backyard this evening. He was crazy dog! He ran around in circles CRAZY!!! I like these pictures, however, I would like them better if the grass was green...spring come quickly.P.S. This is my third blog tonight so make sure you read on...

P.P.S. JUSTIN IS HOME!! Happy day! : )

SNOW!

I just put photos from the camera onto the computer and found these pictures of Pip and I playing in the snow a few weeks ago! Don't tell! I wasn't supposed to be outside! Don't worry I only was out there for like 2 minutes to play with Pip and take the photos. : )
I know the snow like isn't even fully covering the ground but for a California girl turned Texas girl snow is snow!!!

The Results Are In!!!

They Worked!! : ) Granted, I am not a food stylist so my pictures and food don't LOOK as perfect but hmmmmm hmmmm are they good!?!?!
SOOO easy and SOOO good! : )

Photo Shoot & Brownies

This morning the hospital PR people came over and took photos and interviewed me for the newspaper!! It was so much fun. Next week we are doing the TV commercial : ) who knew that almost dying would get you in the newspaper and TV? They are going to email me the pictures we took this morning and I'll share with yall once I get them. The photographer was leaving our house to go to George and Barbara Bush's (ya know the PRESIDENT) apartment to take photos! I told him thanks for making time for me! : ) Also, told him to tell them to come on over! haha

After they left I went to the grocery store. I just finished checking all my blogs and now I am going to attempt "S'mores Brownies" My cousin, Elissa, made them and she said they are amazing. She just crushed up 4 graham crackers and mixed it in with the brownies then put marshmallows on the top when it was almost done cooking. Yesterday when I was looking up all the recipes I came across one recipe that looks amazing....
You can find it HERE. I'll let you know if mine turn out as pretty as hers did. : )

Food on the Brain

There is no other way to put this other than my principal thought I needed more time to recover so I am off until after Spring Break. I haven't decided how I feel about this. Half of me is excited because it gives me more time to recover and get back to 100% fully, the other half of me is sad I am missing so much school. My little kiddos are the reason I get up and get to school every day. Anyways, I have been doing house work and going on a lot of walks with Pip to get my strength back up. Every time I go for a walk I think of how I could hardly walk to the bathroom now I can walk all the way around the block...such a small step for some but soo exciting for me. I also have been menu planning since Justin is coming back home and I am home all day. So here is what I have planned until Justin goes back out of town again...
