Watermelon

We ended up having some late watermelons grow. It's been fun

watching them get bigger. The other day we decided to pick one

& eat it. It was pretty good! They say that everything tastes better

if you grow it yourself. Maybe we'll grow some more next year.

Cookie Decorating

My friend Danica & her little girl Madie came over tonight.

I made sugar cookies & cream cheese frosting so the kids

could decorate some cookies. They had fun & enjoyed

their treat. Later we watched the movie "What Happens

In Vegas" while the kids played. It was a fun night.

Comfort Foods

I've been feeling nauseous for the last few days for some reason

(maybe the antibiotic I'm on). Today I felt really bad. I decided

we needed to make some good ol' comfort foods.Patrick helped

make several chicken pot pies we are going to freeze some.

He used to make this recipe for chicken pot pie all the time.

He got all creative with his pie crust and made a "C" for chicken

on one and on the other one he did he made an actual chicken.

They turned out great! They were so yummy!

I decided I needed to have dessert to go with this, so I made a

really easy and yummy Cherry Cobbler. That too was so

yummy hot out of the oven with vanilla ice cream.

I still don't feel great, but at least we all enjoyed a really

good dinner.

Bye Bye Izzy.....

Our cat Izzy has been missing for 2 weeks now. Patrick decided it
was time to put all of her Kitty stuff away. We have looked for her
put up signs and filed a lost cat report at the animal shelter all to
no avail. We will sure miss our Izzy cat, we sure loved her!

May May....

Here's a cute picture of Savannah May tonight before

she went to bed.

Friday Night Picnic

This week I've been sick. I finally went to the Doctor's today and

got some antibiotics. Patrick headed off to work early tonight

where he enjoyed dinner. He told me that I should take the kids

out to eat as well. The only thing I really wanted was some

good soup & fresh fruit. I decided to get take out from Jason's

Deli. After the kids & I picked up our food we headed to the

Alameda Open Space for a picnic. We dined under the beautiful

cottonwood trees. After we finished eating the kids enjoyed

climbing the trees and walking by the water. It was nice to get

out & get some much needed fresh air.

Good Deal

I thought I'd share my Walgreen's bargains that I got today. For the cough syrups I paid $ 7.80

I used a $2.00 off Dimetapp coupon & $3.00 Robitussin coupon. Right now at Walgreen's buy 3 of these products get $10.00 in Register Rewards

So on this I made over $2.oo

For the Crest Pro Health mouth wash I paid

$4.80 & got $4.80 in Register Rewards making it free. Good deal who doesn't need cough syrup? I know my kids seem like they are always sick & I've been sick myself for a week now. Head to your nearest Walgreen's to get these deals yourself!

It's great to have an older brother who actually enjoyes reading
to his younger siblings.
