Froze out!

Okay.....I am just thawing out from the ballgame. Anyone who thinks you can't freeze in 45 degree weather hasn't sat at the ballpark by the river today for 3 hours watching ballgames! Burrrrrrrrrrrrr!!!! I was so cold when it was over that I couldn't hardly feel my feet! The scores**8-6 first game, they won*****1-4 second game, we won** Soooooo, we came home and fixed breakfast for dinner and hot coffee! {instead of going out to eat-which I am tired of doing} Mmmmmmm. I'm starting to warm up now..... Definately ready for the weekend now..........................

Friday....thank you!

Ohhh....another Friday.....I love Fridays! It has been one BUSY week!
But I did manage to...
*get the cookies made with my Wednesday night class at church and they loved them{so did our Pastor, Brother Mark }
*took Bree for her ortho appointment{ and her teeth are getting straighter and the gap is closing which makes her VERY happy}
*read lots of new blog posts!
*Reconnected with an old friend from highschool via facebook{who is now a pastor!}
*Got a sweet letter from my big sister in Nevada updating me on her family! I miss her!
*finished "A sister's secret" by Wanda Brunstetter {Amish novel}
*got lots of sugars and giggles from Kayden {his giggles are contagious} :)
*only had 1 migraine this week {until now} woo-hoo {very unusual }
*watched my husband take a night off working in the shop{priceless! and rare}
But now*******
I am looking forward to a little relaxing this weekend hopefully!
And... I really love going to Brees softball games! They have done well this year considering they have switched coaches and most of them are playing with girls they aren't used to playing with, but they have won all of their games so far. She has one this afternoon again ...... so I'm off to a chilly afternoon at the ballfield! I'll be glad when it warms up some.....{I did NOT draw this picture} Love this picture!!!!

Lovin' spring like weather......

Ya have to admit...Saturday and Sunday were the prettiest days we have had in a while and even though it was quite windy, it was still so nice to be outside{and I'm not even an outside person} I did get to get a few pictures of Bree for spring or pre-spring. I'm gonna have to try to get Mr. Kayden out for some soon now that it is getting nicer{after the upcoming predicted cold front that is}
Anyway...here's my little girl :)
Definately a beautiful weekend!
I still have more pics to post, but didn't get them all edited yet, so more to come later{maybe!}

Finally accomplished something!

Wow! This has been a great weekend,even though I have missed our lil Kayden something awful! :( :(
I finally managed to get SOMETHING accomplished. Namely housework and laundry! I know...it's exciting huh?
I did get to take Bree out for a few pictures Saturday but don't have many edited just yet but maybe in the next day or so.......
AND I have been wanting for quite some time to make a tutu for my little neices Holly and Kensie for pictures{well, I still have to make another one because there are two of them} and I finally got that made just today and a baby one also for my new neice Lilly, so hopefully soon I will get to get some pictures of them.
And....I am learning to crochet{ummm sorta} and I did kinda make a hat and a cocoon of sorts{still need lots of practice in that area} BUT I bought one and it is so absolutely precious!
And ...We had two wonderful church services today! We are really blessed with an awesome pastor and family.
I finally added some new songs to my playlist{you might have to scroll down and click on them though because I have several songs on it but I really like them all so I don't want to take any of them off }
And last but not least I did a trial run on a new recipe we are doing this week for our Wednesday night middles youth class...Old Testament Cookies. We looked up the scriptures last Wednesday night after our lesson to find the ingredients and I promised them I would try them first to make sure they were good before this coming Wednesday night so we would know if the recipe worked or not .
TEST RESULTS***I liked them, but Bobby and Bree did not like the cloves in them.
Here is the Recipe if you would like to try them yourselves{hint...if you don't like cloves you might want to omit that part of the recipe} And I did leave out the milk because I never put milk in my cookies. I also baked them on an airbake cookie sheet because I like them best.
Old Testament Cookies
1/2 cup Judges 5:25 {butter}
1 cup Jeremiah 6:20 {Sugar}
1 Job 39:14 {egg}
1TBS Judges 4:19-2nd sentence {milk} I OMITTED THIS BECAUSE IT DOESN'T NEED MILK
1 3/4 cups Leviticus 6:15 {flour}
1/4 teaspoon Leviticus 2:13 {Salt}
1/4 teaspoon Amos 4:5 -8th word {Leaven...baking powder}
1/4 teaspoon each 2nd Chronicles 9:1 {spices} Nutmeg, cloves, cinnamon
mix butter, sugar, and egg . Add dry ingredients. Drop by teaspoonful on ungreased cookie sheet. Bake at 350 for about 8-10 minutes. Yummy
{to me}
Try them and see what you think.
I hope the children like them........
And I hope you all have a Wonderful week!

He's funny and doesn't even know it....

Today Kayden was going to his Daddy's for the evening while Mommy worked so I asked him if he was going to go to Daddy's house to play, and he said "Daddy work." He was right his Daddy was at work so I asked him what does Mommy do at work{because yesterday he said Mommy at work...pizza...which is right since she works at Nima's}and he said{as he patted his cute lil head}"her hair". Absolutely hilarious to me!!! He is so funny ...or maybe I am just easily amused!
And just a little inspiration for today

****Welcome Miss Lilly**** ****Congratulations Lacey & J.R.****
Yesterday my neice Lacey had her baby girl ...Lilly Cheyenne{Cheyanne ?}..... she is sooo cute :) I can't wait till I get to meet her. Ummm and take pictures of her sweet little self......
My sister Wendy {Lilly's Grammy} sent me this picture this morning so I wanted to share it.
{ NOTE**this is before her first bubble bath :) } do hospitals still use Baby Magic Baby bath? That is absolutely the best smell. I used it on Brianna forever, but now it seems like it's getting harder to find :( {that makes me sad}
