I'm It!

Anissa over at Our Chaotic Life has photo tagged me. You need to go to your first photo file and choose the 10th photo. Here is mine:

This picture was taken summer of 2007. Adela was about a year old and Lindsey was 6 1/2. I probably took another picture after this one because it looks like Adela is falling backwards:)

Now I am to tag 5 people:

• Sandy


• Noelle


• Holly


• Ter


• Michelle

Let's see what pops up gals!

Scrapbook Sunday and Wisconsin Trip

Hi y'all! What did I miss? I got back yesterday afternoon from Wisconsin. It was a nice trip. The only thing was that everyday was chilly. Oh well...you can't win them all:) Also, my Husband's work labtop wouldn't let me blog, twitter, facebook or check my email!! His work has all the computers programmed not to allow people to check personel accounts! Geez!!

Today is Scrapbook Sunday which is brought to you by Holly of Girls At Heart and Noelle of Lil' Bits and Pieces Of Me.

It is Lindsey when she was about 10 months old. The pictures are a little dark, but each one was a memory that I cherish. The top one was Lindsey on her first drive toy. The bottom is Lindsey and Sidney looking out the window. Everynow and then they would look at each other as if they were saying, "What do you see?"

Now for some Wisconsin pics:

Hey Michaela, we passed through your neck of the woods to get to Wisconsin:)

We didn't take Adela. She is still a little rambunctious, so she stayed with Grandma. Next year we will take her. Next year Jason's June convention will be in Traverse City, Michigan. A tad more closer. Jason and I felt bad she was not there with us, especially since the first day we left was her birthday:(

Here is the view from our room. That is Lake Michigan.

Going On Vacation!

Today at 6 in the morning I leave to go to Wisconsin for our trip! I hope everyone has a good week. My Husband says he is bringing his labtop. I am hoping it is available for private use:)

p.s. It is Adela's third birthday! Happy Birthday Bubba!

Miss Ya All!

Recipe Swap Monday: Sticky Chicky and Just Blah Stuff

Hey it is Monday and it is Recipe Swap Monday with Anissa of Our Chaotic Life.

Sticky Chicky

I had made this last week for the first time and my Husband and Lindsey liked it. The other two kids are so picky. They don't eat a lot of stuff I cook:( Adela is my Sodium Nitrite baby and Michaela is my I will eat when I want to eat baby. And when she does eat, it is never stuff I make.

So here it is:
16 boneless, skinless chicken thights (about three pounds)
Sauce:
1/2 cup your favorite barbecue sauce
1/4 cup reduced-sodium soy sauce
1/4 cup red wine vinegar
1/4 cup liquid honey or maple syrup
1 TBSP chili powder
1 TBSP dijon mustard
1 TBSP grated gingerroot
2 tsp minced garlic
1 tsp ground cumin
1 TBSP cornstarch

Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Spray a 9X13 inch baking pan with cooking spray. Arrange chicken thighs in pan in a single layer.

Whisk together all sauce ingredients in a medium bowl. Pour evenly over chicken, turn pieces to coat both sides with sauce. Bake, uncovered, for about 40 minutes, or until the chicken is no longer pink in the center.

I wasn't on the computer much this past weekend. I was planning and cleaning for Adela's third birthday party. The actual day is this Wednesday. Then on Wednesday morning we are leaving to go to Wisconsin and we will be back on Saturday. I actually got excited when my Husband said he will bring his work laptop! I can blog a little bit at night during our trip!

Now I have to get blogging now, to see what everybody was up to this weekend and what I had missed:)

My Little Bed Hogger

Adela this past weekend had given me some flowers. They were flowers from Jason's chive garden. She was so happy that she gave me flowers. They are still on the table even though they give off an onion smell. This totally makes up for hogging my bed last week.

Last week she kept thinking she was seeing bugs in her room in the middle of the night. Finally I had her come in bed with us. Most of the time she was right up against my back even though it is a king sized bed.My little bed hogger:)

Of course, as I am typing this, she and her sister are fighting over a toy.

Bloggy Awards Are So Cool:)

I received this artsy award from Anissa from Our Chaotic Life. She is becoming a great bloggy friend to me...and it is not because she gives me bloggy awards:)

The ads hogged my sidebar and I love buttons:) I met so many people while blogging. I never thought I would like blogging so much. I never really was on the computer much until I started blogging. I have found a great and caring community and I am proud to say I have found some friends here in blogland.
