365 Day 96

I've been in the mood to bake some goodies and the Portuguese Sweet Bread is not working for me. It not that it's not making bread, it's just not making Sweet Bread the way I think it should be. On that note, I discovered a recipe for Beignets the other day and I've been curious to try them. It was about the same time I found the Italian Potato Doughnut recipe. To be fair, the doughnuts sounded slightly tastier, but I don't really know what a Beignet is and I always like to try new things. The recipe was easy and they  turned out tasty, but oh my does that recipe make a ton. We walked a plateful over to our neighbors house and still had 4 plates piled high at home. 

365 Day 95

My little girl actually let me give her a shower (without her normal lip about 'not yet') and then held still long enough for me to double french braid her hair. She was pretty excited to look like a princess and I was thrilled she has enough hair to pull it off.

365 Day 94

She insisted on feeding her breakfast yogurt to Baby Jaguar today.

365 Day 93

I spent the day with my nose buried in a book (*cough* Hunger Games) and only put it down to attempt some Sweet Bread. Time to go back to my book now.

365 Day 92

We had the most amazing meal with our dear friends tonight. Everyone was in a great mood, even the little guy (who was teething). After dinner it was bath time and he was a very happy camper!

365 Day 91

It's been crazy weather today. Rain, sun, rain, sun. We went to a birthday party in Rocklin and it was pouring down rain. When we left we had sunny skies over our had and this beautiful full rainbow in the distance. Then, on the drive home for game night the clouds went back to dumping buckets of water on us. Crazy weather, awesome day.

365 Day 90

This morning we made a surprise visit out to my Grandmothers house. It was such a perfect day and my kids were all complete angels. Even Mr. Man was interested in her stories about growing up. I love talking to her and sharing stories. She's such an amazing woman and I'm so grateful my kids are getting to know her (even if it's not as often as I'd like).

365 Day 89

I have happy tulips. Took them almost a year of waiting but finally they are showing me their true colors. Now to choose which ones I'll keep.

365 Day 88

KNCI hosted Girls' Night Out with Craig Morgan, Casey James, and Neal McCoy. I went solo, just like I did last year, and I had a blast!

 Four rows back from amazing artists just having fun on stage and enjoying their profession! 

365 Day 87

I was bed bound with a migraine all day. I'm not sure how or where I found the energy, but I chose to teach Lady Ryder how to use scissors for the very first time. She did really well making sure to not point the tip towards her body. I think she has a new favorite activity. 

Fill in the Blank

I've got a few picture holes to hunt down for my 365 project and two great blog posts I'm working on (about the  things I'm going to forget) that I can't wait to finish. Spring break is finally here so I actually have lost most of my free time, but I know I'll get it all knocked out soon. I managed to finish my photo books in time, I surely can finish a few posts. Thanks for your patience while I play catch up.

365 Day 86

Today was the first day home from Spring Break. I didn't think I was ready for it but we had so much fun! Started out with a quiet morning. While the baby napped in the afternoon the boys worked on 100 piece puzzles. Then when she woke up, we all went to the library, followed by the park. The kids had a blast running around getting all their crazies out and playing on the equipment. Lady Ryder thought it was great fun to climb this Caterpillar only she insisted it was a frog. She'd even sit on it's neck and carry on little conversations. "Hi, Mr. Frog! How are you?" Too cute. 

365 Day 85

What a lovely treat it was to find some happy  little peas growing on my pea plants!

365 Day 84

High jumping fun on the trampoline.

365 Day 83

Playing at the park, waiting for her brothers to get out of school. 

Luckily, she doesn't have the same fear of stick shifts that I do.

365 Day 82

Damn you, makers of Nutella, for making such an addicting product....

365 Day 81

Every night when I go to bed I take my vitamins and set out my daughters gummy vitamins for her to take in the morning.

365 Day 80

My crazy cat LOVES watching the toilet flush. Sometimes I'll flush it just to watch her swirl her head trying to follow the water.

365 Day 79

Organized Chaos. 

I use four Calendars and they all look just as wonky as this one. Today I'm using my personal calendar to catch up with the photos I've taken over the last few weeks and haven't yet published. 

365 Day 78

I finally hung up my pinterest inspired project from a many weeks ago.
