Hannah and Rosie just left. :( It was a great week with them. That Rosie Love is so so precious! We took her to the zoo and she loved the Merry Go Round. It was her favorite last time, too. We also took her to her first movie. It was our first movie in over a year....Horton Hears a Who. It was so cute! Rosie did something funny the other day...she had a "potent" (dirty diaper) and she walked real funny into the kitchen crying for me. She said, "Hadoo wants to change potent". HA! Oh gosh! So, mom offered to change her, dad offered to change her, and Hannah offered to change her...she would have none of it...only her Hadoo could change her potent! So, off I went to change the potent. I only gagged twice. :s The things we do for love! :) I thought it was really sweet, though, that she kept saying, "Hadoo wants to change potent!" and very funny! Macy had Junior prom last night. She went with Josiah. She looked beautiful! Mar and Rosie sat in the car and watched Planet Earth DVD's while I went and took pictures of all the girls. We didn't have any Pooh or Sesame Street so that had to do. Today, we got up and went to church, picked Macy up from Abby's house, went to mom and dad's, went to Chili's...too crowded so we went to Dixie Cafe, and then went to see the wiggy piggy's (Rosie's term for those flags at the crown shop that blow in the wind). After all of that, Rosie and Hannah left. :( I wish they still lived here. We'll get to see Rosie next Saturday in Clinton for her birthday party and then we'll see her again the next weekend in Little Rock for her birthday party here. More later...here are some recent pictures and pictures of prom last night.

Oops..never finished this one.

Fast and Easy Rolo Brownie Bites

Happy Happy Friday, y'all! Some of y'all might know that back in the day I had a baking blog. And, by back in the day, I mean I started it in 2009 and my last post was in 2011. I probably should update it and keep adding to it, but I just don't bake or cook as much anymore now that our nest is empty. But, I did have so much fun with that blog. I would just bake or cook as usual but along the way I would take pictures and blog about the recipes. I still go back to that site and get recipes. I send my kids and friends there when they are wanting a certain recipe, too. It's so easy to just send them a link. I'm all about fast and easy recipes! One of my favorite super easy "go to" recipes are these super yummy and easy brownie bites. I first blogged about these in 2009 here but thought I would add the yummy recipe to this blog, too.  Ingredients: Brownie Mix (I use the Duncan Hines 13x9 family size). Rolo's (they now have them unwrapped) WOOHO...

Bye Bye 80's kitchen!!

Well, my kitchen is mostly finished!! It's completely painted!! I am so excited to have a brighter updated kitchen.  It just feels completely different.  I'm not completely finished but here's what I've got for now.   The cabinet color is Benjamin Moore Linen White and the walls are Benjamin Moore clay beige. I'm so glad to see the florescent oak square light gone!! I replaced it with chandeliers I got at a flea market!! :) We also hired an electrician to put more canned lighting in because after the florescent square was gone, we needed more lighting. I painted 48 cabinets and drawers and the body of the cabinets (don't know what the official name for that is) and was so burned out by the time I finished the island that my sweet husband suggested we hire a painter to paint the rest for me! I am SOOOO glad he did!!!!  See the faith, truth, love window frame beside the pantry door? Well, my super talented sister-in-law, Sabrin...
Mar and I didn't go to church this morning. :( We hate to miss. We woke up about 8:30, talked a little bit, prayed a little bit and then the next thing we know, it's 10:30!!! We must have really needed the sleep. We leave for church at 10:40 so there was no way we were going to make it. It felt wonderful to sleep in, though. We can alway watch the service on the Internet. After Rosie got home from church, we went and picked her up and took her to Wendy's to eat (we all really wanted Franke's but it was packed...at 1:45!) and then we headed to Party City where I got plates for Bunco (it's at my house on Thursday) and then we went to Garden Ridge and got a fake plant and a chair (for $99). The chair we were going to get was WAY more than that and a lot prettier but the one at Garden Ridge did the job fine and with no guilt for spending too much money on a beautiful chair. It is SO MUCH FUN to shop with Rosie...SO MUCH FUN!!! I hate to shop without her because she make...
