Weddings

One of my co-workers got married this weekend.


She had it at the Will Roger's Park. We walked around looking at everything. The place was just begging to have it's picture taken.



I mean just look it at it!


It was super hot.



But absolutely gorgeous.




My husband looking regal.


The wedding was superb.



Labor Day Weekend


It's going to be a hot one today. They are forecasting 106 as the high. We have been blessed with an unusually cool, rainy summer so I almost have forgotten how oppressive it can get.

We plan on taking it easy this holiday weekend. Doing some household chores, yard work and then we have a wedding to go to this evening.
Outside. 
In 106 temperatures.

I think I will pack my purse with ice bags and just leave it in my lap. Do you think it will work?

Pictures to follow.

grrrrr

I am just a tiny bit frustrated with my nexus 4 phone. I takes excellent pictures but since G+ updated it won't load the full photos on to my G+ account. :P
Here are some recent shots I have taken. Hopefully they load 100% so you can enjoy them in all their digital glory.

dinner time

Maddy started back to school last week so that means supper busy evenings again. She is a football manger so that means after school practice. When you add in church bible study, praise band practice, meetings, and Sunday night credo, it makes for a very busy mom. So I decided to do a marathon Sat and prep all my meals for the week. We found a great deal on hamburger so we'd bought 20 lbs of it. I divided some up to freeze then used some for our meals for the week. 
I made meatballs, beef enchilada mix, taco mix, and meat loaf. I also cooked rice and froze it for easy side dishes too.


Here's is what my freezer currently looks like. I had my hubby put the meatloaf in while we were still at church. It was nice coming home to a hot, homemade meal that was not one of those frozen entrees full of sodium and preservatives.
