It's been seven years.
These are my anniversary flowers from Ryan. We've been happily (and some days not-so-happily) married for seven years. WOW. And... blessed with two beautiful daughters. Love them. Love him!

Secret Recipes
Not really. Well, really yes they are secrets, but... we're not sharing them. Sorry.
I just wanted to show you my new recipe cards!!!
Booo Virus
Go away nastiness. You've made our household sad for the last week. First Cora and now Elayna. You're no fun.
Juju's so supportive. And even more of a lover since Elayna's not feeling good. (Letting him sleep with her again during naps might have something to do with it. She kicked him out of her room for a few weeks.)

Tiny the Dinosaur
Just in case you didn't catch it the first time, hahaha. I could totally watch Meet the Robinsons over and over all day long. It's such a good movie. Part of this clip is in the trailer, and that's what made Ryan & me pay to see it in the theater.

Dino Appliqué
So instead of purchasing birthday shirts for the girls (at $20+ a piece!), I decided to try my own hand at machine appliqué. I've done all of none before and was extremely nervous. I found a great tutorial here and decided to just go for it and save myself at least $30. Except, now I'm wanting a bigger, better sewing machine with a hundred stitch options... so... yeah.
Well this is my practice round. Would you let your child wear it?

When i asked Ryan if he knew it was a t-rex without me telling him, his response was, "Yeah. I can see its big head and little arms." !!!!!!! He cracks me up!

Itsy GIANT Spider
Meet our not so welcome porch guest. That mega-web spans across our whole entryway. Fortunately for him, that huge hiney packs his bags and is gone by morning.

Mav & Mati
Meet Maverick. We picked him up from a local shelter for the Belgian Malinois Rescue. He's been staying with us the past few days and will leave this weekend for a more permanent foster home. He's a cutie.
And a playful little snot.
Never leaves Mati alone. You can see how hard she's trying to get away from him.
But he anticipates her every move. (That's him on the right.)
Maverick leaves Saturday, and I don't think Mati'll miss him. She's usually the fastest dog on the block, but he's on her heel the entire time-- nipping and grabbing at her. She's not used to actually having to race for a ball and did not appreciate his annoying, competitive spirit at all. It was fun having him though. Even if he had no manners and zero self-control. He was extremely affectionate and never missed an opportunity to show us some love. And he was really good with my girls, thank goodness.

Snapping Beans
Oh how our garden grows! We've been picking okra and green beans for two days. Here's my little helper who really loves to snap beans. Elayna would do three at a time and then exclaim, "I'm so strong!"
