Mothers Day

Spring Break

For spring break we went to Islamorado , Fl which is about 5 keys above Key West. We took a day and went to Key West so Elizabeth could see the southern most point, which she thought was neat. The weather was beautiful. It feels like you are in the carribeans. It took us about 13 hours to drive and that was enough.

Dr. Seuss

Elizabeth's school celebrated Dr. Seuss this week. Each day had its event.
Favorite character Day
Crazy hair day and shirt backwards

Crazy hat day

She loves these kinds of events. It made each day extra exciting.

Pesto....

My new found love Pesto sauce. I pretty much only cook veg. dishes. I could careless about meat and Earl now is limiting his meat eating so it can be hard to come up with different dishes, but I will say I come up with a few I really like. Good sauces is the key. I do a lot of noodles (variety) with stir fried veg. and then use different sauces to have a different taste. But I started using pesto and now I do everything with pest. Here are a few recipes I enjoy.

1. Bake potato with a smear of ranch dressing , cheese and vegs. (stir fried)-no sauce on these vegs.

2. Pasta noodles with pesto sauce(or any sauce) and vegs. top with little parmesan

3. Veg pizza, use your choice of crust, spread with pesto instead of tom. sauce , top with mozzarella cheese, add spinach, mushrooms, olives, jalapenos, squash, onion, green pepper and any others you would like. (It is great!!!!)

4. Tortilla wrap with Parmesan cheese and pesto veg. (love it)

5. Hey it may sound funny but Egg white omelet with veg. and top with hot sauce. Grits as a side.

Ok, now I am hungry, but I think we are going out for meat tonight. Bar-b-que maybe.

Pesto sauce is MUCH cheaper at Wal-Mart.

Happy Birthday Alexandria

Ok , My pictures are backwards . Alexandria had her 2nd birthday yesterday. We had the family over for supper and cake. She loves baby dolls so that was the theme. I tried to get a family photo and none of them came out, then I tried to get a picture of Alexandria smiling and didn't succeed so these are the pictures that came out. Look a sweet Kate.

Heart Beat

I found the girls giving the cat a check-up. I think all was well. I love seeing the girls playing together like this.

Early christmas

We had early Christmas with Papee and Memee ( Earl's Parents) yesterday. Poor Elizabeth has had a stomach virus and was under the weather as you can see in the pictures. His parents are down for a cousins wedding which is tomorrow. Weird ironic or what but tomorrow is our 11th wedding anniversary, it is also his parents anniversary and now a cousin is getting married tomorrow at the same place we got married. It must be a family date to wed.
