We've got a mama pigeon that built a nest in our gutter. I guess that tells you how bad our gutters need to be cleaned out. Of course, they are not getting cleaned until this mama has her babies. I love getting to see this pigeon every day. ;)

Yesterday, I had the whole day free so I went to OBU to visit May May. It was a GORGEOUS day!!! Absolutely beautiful! I would never ever be in my room if I lived there. I would be outside all the time, especially in this weather. We ate at Chick-fil-A outside and then went to a little candy store, Wal-Mart, and the car wash to clean my car.

Macy's dorm room. :) Hard to believe she's almost finished with her first year of college!!! That's a big accomplishment!!!

I love my sista! We went to Larry's Pizza with a bunch of people today and I ate just about all my calorie allowance in one sitting!! I pigged out and it was SO good!!! Calli and I went walking after that and then I came home and ate a piece of the Pioneer Woman's Red Velvet Cake which I think is probably the best thing I've put in my mouth...well, right up there with the Cheesecake Factory's Red Velvet Cake Cheescake. DELICIOUS!!!

I don't even think I've written on here that we traded my convertible in for a much cheaper car for Lamar. It's a Kia Forte and it's really neat. He loves being able to talk to me on the phone hands free. I don't think I've even taken a picture of that car. I need to! It's black. We've had all white cars for years now. Macy was so excited to finally have a different color car in our family. Lamar named his car, Lamar's Farte...HA! Men and gas!!!

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...
