Our church had our annual Parish Picnic last weekend and was it full of fun stuff to do. Tons of bouncy houses, smaller ones for the Little’s. and really big ones for the bigger kiddos.

Potato Pancakes with Avocado Mash and Eggs

September 28, 2010

I’ve really been on a breakfast foods kick lately. This recipe I found from the Everyday with Rachael Ray Magazine once again. The take 5 section, only 5 ingredients, reels me in every time. I knew this would be a great breakfast for dinner idea. Who doesn’t love crispy potato pancakes, creamy avocado, perfectly cooked [...]

30 Day Shred Challenge

September 18, 2010

I’ve decided to embark on the 30 day shred challenge once again. After reading Alicia’s inspiring post, it’s time. As you may remember I did this last year, lost about 9lbs and felt strong and great. But slowly fell off the shredding wagon. What I learned from last time is that the support from [...]

Brazos Bend State Park

September 15, 2010

We took the boys to Brazos bend state park last week, it’s unlike any park they’ve ever been too. So they were a bit confused, when we got there, was it the water park, playground park? The main attraction at this state park besides it’s vast hiking trails and lakes. Are alligators!! Yes alligators live [...]
