This n' That


Hannah got her hair cut last week and had it straightened, too. I think her hair is so beautiful! I sure wish I would have gotten her hair!!! :) I would LOVE to have that gorgeous thick hair! Rosy got her Mama's hair. Hannah's baby boy is due on June 6th, actually that is when he will come because she's having a C-section. Hannah and Justin decided on a name...Banner! I love it! It's not common at all and it has a good Bible meaning. Rosy has been so funny.....she has been calling her baby brother Amadeus! When people ask her what his name is, she says, "Amadeus"! HA! :) We keep telling her his name is Banner and she insists that it's Amadeus! SO funny!

Macy came home this weekend for Easter. I love having her home. She has grown up so much this year in college. She takes the trash out on her own without us asking! She also cleans up but she's always done that (except for in her bedroom). Madie came over on Friday night and they cooked a ton of veggies...they all tasted pretty bad but that's okay. :) Macy burned the peppers and mushrooms and then stirred the burnt part in. :) She also cooked onions that were organic and they tasted horrible! Madie said it's because it was organic. Anyway, it was funny! Macy's last day of her freshmen year in college is May 7th! Almost a month away! YAY! I'm excited she'll be back with us this summer. She's going to work for Lamar part time.

We went to our Easter service this year on Saturday night. The pastors asked the services to try to come on Saturday night or 8:00 am service on Sunday morning to leave room for the 9:30 and 11:00 services. Well, they weren't expecting so many people to show up. There were over 1,800 people at the Saturday night service. It was held in the Warehouse and they had to open up the chapel because the Warehouse was completely full. We ended up in the chapel (which was also completely filled up) and watched the Easter service and worship on video. It was still good, though. I was impressed at how quick Fellowship got the chapel ready and the video going. It was nice to have Sunday morning free. We were able to sleep in and I was able to get my casserole in the oven and make the icing for my cake with no stress. I think it would be great if Fellowship started a Saturday night service. :)

We always go to Franke's after church every Sunday so we decided to go after church Saturday night. Rosy loves Franke's and gets a cupcake every week. She was so happy because the cupcakes had pink icing on them Saturday night. :) I got Rosy's Easter dress for her last weekend at Cupcakes and Caterpillars...Macy and Hannah went with us. She tried on at least 10 dresses. She was so funny.....she would try on a dress and then go out of the dressing room to twirl and look at herself in the big mirror. It was adorable! They had the cutest dresses. This was Rosy's very favorite because of all the pretty colors. Lamar has a sticker on his shirt that Rosy got in her Sunday school class......she put it on me and then I put it on him. :) Lamar just called and he's headed home so I better boogie! More later!

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...

Christmas Decorations

I am so behind on my blog, once again. I have so much to write about......Thanksgiving, the Turkey Trot, the Granny Walk, Marcifest, the LSU/HOG game, etc.  It was all wonderful! I don't want to leave all of that out.  I'll go back and catch up or at least I think I will.  One thing I learned way back in the day when I was scrapbooking was that if I got behind to just start where I was instead of backtracking. Otherwise, it was just too overwhelming. So, I'm starting with right now and right now, I'm decorating for Christmas.  I LOVE Christmas...the music, the atmosphere, and most especially, the celebration of Christ's birth. I got a pretty swag for my door and wanted garland to match. I have a wonderful friend, Hope, who is an incredibly talented decorator and she volunteered to make the garland for me.  We went shopping together and she knew exactly what to buy and came to my house and put it all together.  She did a great job! I love my door!!...
