Hannah came over a few days ago and Banner and Rosy both had on their matching LSU shirts! :) Actually, Rosy's is a shirt from OBU...they have the same colors and mascot as LSU.

I happened to have on my I love Arkansas shirt. HA! :)

Macy and I met Hannah, Rosy, and Banner at the mall. Banner did so good. I think he likes to shop....good thing because he was born into our family!!! :)
Kathryn came to visit from Lafayette!!! YAY!!! Rosy was so excited to see her...we all were! Here she is holding Banner for the first time.

We went to the Purple Cow on Cantrell (it was less crowded) last night.  They have the best vanilla malts!
May, Justin (he's home for the weekend from his internship in Stuttgart), Hannah, Banny, and Katty.
After Purple Cow, we went over to mom and dad's to see Jeralu, David, Jengi, Dempsey, and baby Adelyn.  Kathryn and Rosy played Strawberry Shortcake in mom and dad's room. :)
Macy and Adelyn...isn't she adorable?!

Justin, Jeralu, mom, and David talking.

Adelyn pulled Ban's hair.

Aww, poor little guy.

Today we went to Burgess for lunch and then to Red Mango to get yogurt. They have the BEST mixed berry yogurt parfait EVER!!! I get kiwis instead of bananas.  It's delicious and healthy!!! YUM!!!

Then, we went to Mardel's to get Kathryn a Bible.  Lamar has been wanting to get her one ever since the beach.  We went to Lifeway once but the Bible engraver wasn't there. I'm kind of glad because Kathryn got to pick out the exact Bible that she wanted. :)

Hannah and her family are over now.  Mar is making homemade peach ice cream, which is delicious, especially with our vanilla that we got from Haiti.  He's also made his amazing cheesecake this morning.  Anytime he makes it, people always say, "This is the BEST cheesecake I've ever had!" I have got to put his recipe on my recipe blog because he's made it up from several different recipes.  Kathryn and I were supposed to walk with Calli tonight but there is a heat advisory and it's supposed to feel like 97 degrees at 8:00 pm so it looks like I'll be walking on the treadmill today. The good thing about that is that I get to listen to Joel Osteen or Joyce Meyer and that's always good for my soul.  We're headed to mom and dad's tonight to see my my cousin, Justin.  He and his wife just adopted a baby and I am SO excited for them!!

LOVING having Kathryn here...as always!! Macy and Kat hiked up Pinnacle this morning to watch the sunrise. I wish I would have gone but I just can't get up at 5:00 am and climb a mountain! :) Also, the snakes and poison ivy are a little scary this time of year.  I LOVE climbing Pinnacle when it's cool outside....it's great exercise and it's gorgeous!

I'm off the walk on the treadmill...happy, happy, joy, joy. :s

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...
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...

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...
