Love get-a-ways!

I love Mike and I' anniversary on valentines day.

I love that I get to spend 2 nights in a bed and breakfast.

I love that I get to be in the mountains with my honey and SKII!

I love that I get to sleep in.

take a bubble bath

have a romantic dinner

take pictures

be alone with Mike

and give him my gift. :)

.

.

.

I posted my ring above.

it means so much to me for Three reasons.

.

1. I got it from mike

2. I got it last year for our anniversary

3. I love that we didn't get rings when we first got married. He felt like taking on two little girls when we got married was more important then wedding rings. He wanted to give them everything he could and not have any debt.

So My ring shows me such sacrafice from mike. He is always so willing to give and do without.

And I was willing to wait.

I luv him.

wuv-u beebee

wuv-u aum

I love this picture.

Time stood steal for a moment while I grabbed my camera, good thing it was right next to me.

I was actually on the computer.

And Jackson was leading her around the house being silly.

they stopped and was looking at the UPS man.

that was actually dropping off pictures to my house.

.

Look at charlee looking at her big brother.

He will protect her though life.

I know he will.

he tells me. :)

This is a typical MORNING.

of pitter patter's down stairs.....

Mornings are so QUITE.

no one here but this little lady and me.

Soooo----I hear every single movement she makes.

.

Stop and try to listen to this picture.

can you hear her pulling this Phone down the entry way?

making that click click RING ring sound.....

Ya know-----I took this before they left for school.

and I didn't realize how BIG they are until I edited this picture.

I know, sounds weird.

but things are different in pictures then in everyday life.

it STANDS STILL for you long enough to really LOOK at them.

.

they both have gotten asked to be someones "Valentine" this year.

:(

Im excited for them, but secretly sad.

Abbie has a Valentines dance on thursday and will be going to buy her a new dress.

Autumn got a "cute might I add" necklace from a boy who REALLY likes her.

.

Hummm......How can I hide them till they graduate highschool?

Recipe

Sweet and Sour Chicken

.
a bag of frozed breasts.. {lol}

3/4 cup sugar

1/2 cup vinager

1/4 cup Pineapple juice

3 t. Ketchup

1 t. Soy sause

1/2 t salt

{I double this btw}

I like my chicken with EXTRA sause!!!

Cut up chicken in large chunks

dip chicken in beaten egg and then into cornstarch and then fry

{I put oil in a pan on my stove}
when all chicken is fried and put in a casserol dish pour mixed ingredients over top
Bake @350 for about 30-40 minutes or until sause is bubbly...
THEN EAT THE WHOLE DANG THING

.

.

{sometimes I will make two bags of chicken, and triple the sause and then I have LOTS of left overs for lunches and mike to take to work for two days}

MAKE THIS!

then leave me a comment afterwards telling me how awesome i am!
