"Happy Muzzer's Day"

That was what Jackson greeted me with this morning, waking up after sleeping in. Thanks Jason. The boys all headed off to Lowe's to pick up flowers for us all to plant together. Seems to be our tradition. So I headed downstairs and found this.

I got to take a shower in peace ( other moms of the toddler age know what I'm talking about! )and flip through a magazine quietly. When the guys got back we had tacos and burritos here,

then came back home and planted this.

Love my guys.

And you can do cool things like this

I just had to add this onto my photoshop post. Nanny, this is for you!

A few of my favorite things

Photoshop and Strawberries. When subtly combined, perfection. Now where's the cool whip...

I love playing with photoshop, sometimes it helps me look like I a) have a really great expensive camera or b) know what I'm doing with a really great expensive camera. Shhh!

You know you do it...

Lick the bowl! Jackson and I had a great time being obnoxious. Yum.

Peace goes to Prom

That's what Jackson calls my little sister, his Aunt. Her name is Tiffany. I have no idea where peace came from. But it will always stick.

Saturday was her senior prom. sigh. I remember her as a little chubby baby. Changed a few of her diapers. Got mad that I had to share a room with her. Painted her toenails. Still do that last one. She is beautiful, don't cha think?? Her boyfriend David thinks so for sure.

Birth Verse

I thought this was neat.

I have conquered the pot roast

Since being married ( almost 8 years people! ) I have tried every imaginable recipe for a good "meat and taters" type pot roast. It's the kinda guy Jason is. And they have always turned out dry, chewy, grey, and just gross. No matter what. Even with Pioneer Woman's help. Bad. My neighbor told me about the roast she makes that is "to die for". Okay whatever. Roast, green beans, and- fajita seasoning. The really cheap brand that comes in a huge container for $1.99. The kind your husband would grab if you told him to stop by the store and pick up some fajita seasoning...and you would say "not THIS brand". That's the one.



Place in roast in pan ( the old fashioned oval roast pan with a lid ), sprinkle the roast with fajita seasoning ( generously ), dump in 4 cans of green beans, add enough water to cover roast and cook covered in 350 oven 1 hour per pound of meat.



Perfection! Jason asked for me to make this again, and this rarely occurs. He will either wolf it down to feel full and avoid really tasting it, or he will heap his plate with all the side dishes. The meat just fell apart and was so juicy and tender. I added some red potatoes and carrots in the pan and they were just right too. Even Jackson ate it, and Cooper deemed it gummable. This is big news people!



I know this is a really boring post, but that's how good this was. Blog worthy.
