Let's see...I need to catch up. What's been going on? Well, Macy's junior/ring ceremony was last week. We also went to Rayville last weekend. We have tons of softball games, too. There's so much to remember. I try to write everything down on my calendar but still am having problems scheduling 2 things at once. :s Rosie will be 3 years old in a week in a half!!! She is such a sweet little bright spot. I adore her, if you haven't noticed! :) Her birthday party is going to be at my house, her request. :) Makes me happy. I like to ask Rosie who her best friend is because she always says it's me. :) Well, last week, I asked her who her best friend was and she pointed to me and said, "You!!! AND...God and heaven". :) Sweet precious angel!

Macy and Pug's ring ceremony. It really does feel like a few weeks ago that we were sitting in the same place watching Macy and Pug get their senior rings and now they were the ones giving the juniors their senior rings. I got a little emotional when they said, "Goodbye to the class of 2009 and hello to the class of 2010". Time goes by too fast. :(

We went to Rayville this weekend and the flowers were gorgeous!!! I sure wish Blogger would let me upload more than 4 photos to a blog entry...then we may be in trouble, though. I am a picture fanatic. I want to post so many more but it's just too time consuming in a world that I don't have a lot of time in.

I asked Lamar before we left if we could eat at the Waterfront Grill while we were in Louisiana. I looked so forward to eating there....the shrimp rahkee is AMAZING!!! I looked forward to it all day and starved myself where I could load up there!!! :)

Jennifer, Dan, Isaac, and Daniel. It was fun seeing them.

Okay, I have to upload more pictures...I can't help myself. Surely, I can get it done in 20 minutes (that's when I have to go to Macy's softball game).

My iPhone has an application called iFart. Well, I wouldn't be the wife Lamar needs me to be if I didn't find the humor in gas so I uploaded that application just for him and he laughed until he cried which brings me such pleasure. Anyway, this picture is not of Lamar, even though I think it looks so much like him!! This picture is of his brother, Dan, who just like his brother, finds gas HILARIOUS. He was looking at the application on my phone in this picture and laughing at the different "fart" names. Laughter is so contagious. I didn't think they were all that hysterical until everyone else started reading them and then they laugh until they cry and then I start laughing, too. By the way, I don't like using the word fart at all...it sounds too crude...but that is the name of the application. I would rather say "fluff". :)

Love this picture and love these guys! Lamar, his bro, Dan, and his sweet Daddy, who is one of the nicest men I've ever met. Have you ever seen someone that you can tell instantly they are kind by their eyes? Well, the first time I saw Lamar's dad, I knew he was kind by his eyes. I love that man!

Dan got Auntn Helen a fern for her birthday. Aunt Helen is Lamar's aunt who has been kind of like a mom to him, too. She never had kids of her own but her sister, Gladys (Lamar's mom), had 6 kids so she helped with them. She's a great lady!

Isaac fell asleep while Lamar and Dan were wheeling him back and forth on the porch. I got a video. I just need to upload it (maybe I'll get around to doing that one of these days). Is this not so funny?! HA!

I love this picture!!! Lamar has always loved kids. He would have 10 more if he could. God doesn't always give us our desires, though. He knows so much better than we ever could what is best for us.

LOVE this house....LOVE this porch!!! I should have taken a picture from the street where you could see all the acres of land. This is the house Lamar grew up in and now Dan lives there with his family and their Dad.
I have 5 minutes....better boogie!!!!

LOVE the pictures!! They're definitely worth a thousand words. I'm a picture fanatic, too. We still have snow on the ground. I'd love to have some beautiful azaleas blooming around my house!!

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...

Show us where you live Friday.....the Kitchen

Most of you probably read Kelly's blog . She is so much fun! Well, she is hosting a "Show us where you Live Friday" and this week is the kitchen edition. I am excited about this because I absolutely LOVE looking at houses and decor....it's so much fun and can really show someones personality. I just love to see how others express themselves through decorating. While I really do love my kitchen, it is the room I am looking forward to redoing the very most. My future plans are to take down the wallpaper and paint, paint the ceiling, redo the cabinets (probably really dark wood), paint the island black, take down the florescent light fixture above the island and replace with something a little more up to date, and replace the curtains. I think the previous owners did a great job decorating it but I would rather it be more my personality. I spend A LOT of time in my kitchen and I really enjoy it!! When my mom and dad moved, they gave me their big round table that seats...
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...
