I'm a little sad right now. My parents are 99% sure they are moving to a different house. I'm sure it's the right thing to do but it makes me sad. This house is a part of me. It's got so many memories. I've been in this house since I was 6...that's 31 years. Hannah and Dawson have known no other house. The grandkids only know this house. I'm going to miss this house tremendously. It's hard to think of anyone else being here. I'm going to miss the pool LOTS! I'll also miss the gorgeous view. Every room in this house holds so many memories for me. It's hard to believe this will be the last summer here. I know mom and dad are getting older and need to downsize but it's so sad. Everyone is going to really miss this house! My dad has wanted to sell it a few times through the years but my mom couldn't bear to do it because of all the memories. I guess now's the time. They already have a buyer and they are great people. It's hard to imagine anybody else in here, though. Abby was so funny yesterday when Nana told her...she said, "WHAT!!! You didn't ask me first!". HA! :) We all feel like we own this house. Mom and Dad have always made us feel like this was still our house, even after we got married. I actually spend as much time here as I do my own house. Hannah and Rosie are here now and when they're here, I am too! :) I love that baby! We went to Ravyille on Saturday. That house is amazing! It's over 100 years old and it's staying in the family. Lamar has grown up there, too. It's Dan's now. I'll write more about our Rayville trip later. I'm waiting on Lamar to call. He should be getting through right about now. More later.
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...
