Let's Go Fly a Kite

Yesterday, we took out sweet little Sunshine to Maumelle park and she flew a kite for the first time.  We had so much fun! It was gorgeous outside...breezy and sunny!!
Love this baby girl! ;) She had the best time flying her kite.  
The kite flew REALLY high up in the air.  The Arkansas river is so pretty in the background. It was so fun to see all the boats go by.
Hadoo-e-doodle and Mar-e-doodle.
Rosy took this picture...didn't she do a good job? :) 
The kite went SO high!! I haven't flown a kite in so long.  It was so much fun!!
Sweet little sunshine on a sunshiney day. :) 
Love being by the river.
We're best friends! :) 
Mar-e-doodle and Rosy-doodle. :)

Mar and I went back out to Maumelle park again today.  The high was only 83 degrees....it was sunny and just gorgeous!!! We just laid down on a blanket in the shade and relaxed.  My mom and I just had a conversation about laid/lied for the millionth time.  I can't ever get it right.  According to mom, you LIE yourself down and LAY an object down but the past of lie is lay so I think if I just say lie I'll be correct about 70% of the time. ;) We're over at my mom and dad's watching the LSU game on TV.  GEAUX Tigers!! Mar has on his LSU shirt and I have on my HOG shirt. :) My brother-in-law, Phil, has season tickets and we're going to the ULM and LSU games. Mar is going to the AL game.  They sit in Hog heaven.  It's always fun. There's nothing quite like sitting outside at a game, though!! I LOVE the fall weather!!! 
I love having a Mac...I just took our picture right now on photo booth...here we are watching the game.

Well, I'm outta here....going to get on Facebook or Twitter...have to keep myself entertained during the game. :)

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...
