Multi-tasking

Randomness





So lately I have been inspired by a cookbook maing meals in 1/2 an hour. My favorites so far are Morrocan Chicken Tangine with Apricot Couscous and Cheesy Pita bread , Spinach and Chicken Enchiladas with CostaRican Rice, Fish Tacos with spicy slaw and Southwest Sloppy Joes with warm sweet/red potato bacon salad. I admnit the weather makes me desperately want to do anything to brighten our home even if it means getting my little people involved in some new experinces. and of course no dinner is complete without diessert. My girls had chocolate pudding for the first time... it was a hit! On family day last week we made painted shirts we picked up at the thrift store, Eiley was proud of her multicolored tower. We desperately want spring, but we are holding tight, holding each other and keeping happy.

Heaven





David and I just returned from 6 days in beautiful, warm Phoenix Arizona. We read, slept, hung out in silence, prayed together, and sat waay too many hours in the sun, which all combined, was blissful. I love my husband, He is my best friend and it just felt good to connect. Our girls did fabulous,in the care of my in-laws and a few precious friends, and we are now home trying to remember the silence...:) but even on holidays there is no place like home.
