YUMMY PUMPKIN SPICE MUFFIN RECIPE

ingredients:
1 spice cake box mix
2/3 cup canned pumpkin
2 eggs
1 6oz. carton of low fat vanilla yogurt
3/4 cup water

Preheat oven to 375 degrees. In large mixing bowl mix together the cake mix, pumpkin, eggs, yogurt & water until combined. Spoon mixture into muffin tins. Bake for 20 min.

This recipe is quick and easy and yummy. Plus it is low fat because I used pumpkin and yogurt in place of the oil. ENJOY!

GOOOOOOO THUNDER

Mckell and Allee did the Desert Hills Thunder's cheerleading clinic this past week. They both had so much fun. They were sooooo cute during half time at the football game, even though it was so windy and cold!

The Party

She was so polite. At first she didn't want to eat it with her hands.

But, that didn't last long. Pretty soon she had it everywhere!

She was so cute opening her presents. We could not get her to smile for anything.

We finally celebrated T's b-day. We didn't have a big party or anything, just us! We had cake and she opened her presents. She was so cute with her cake, she wasn't sure what to do with it at first, but after she figured it out IT WAS EVERYWHERE!!!

Happy Birthday

Happy Birthday to yet another of my BFF's. Today is Kena (Black) Slater's Birthday. Kena is one of the prettiest, coolest, nicest, and funniest people I know. Lova ya girl! Hope you have a great B-day!

Conversation:

This is a conversation I had with Mckell yesterday.

Me: Mckell what did you have for snack at school today?

Mckell: Weiners!

Me: What are weiners? Are they like little hot dogs?

Mckell: No, They are kinda like an oval, but they are a rectangle!

Me: Oh, are they candy?

Mckell: No mom, they are weiners!!!

I still dont know what they had for their snack. I'm not sure I want to know!!

She is O N E!!

It was fun seeing everyone that came. There were a few people that I would have loved to see that didn't make it. Mabey next time.

 

Soccer

 

Kace & Kell had their first Soccer games today. They both did so good. Mckell is the oldest and the biggest on her team and she pretty much dominated! She scored all of the goals for her team (8 or 9 of them.)!!! K.C. is really fast and aggressive. He scored 2 goals for his team, and one for the other team (ooops- total acident). Good job kiddos you both did awesome!! We have so much fun watching them play.

Everybody is doing it!........

Confessions that is -
Since everyone else is doing it I might as well. I guess that leads me to my first Confession.

[1] I am a follower and get sucked into peer pressure.

[2] I eat cold cereal for lunch way too often.

[3] I hate working, why do we have to have money to survive?

[4] I hate how much Kevin works, again work + money = survive, why????

[5] I dont bathe my kids everyday. Is that gross?

[6] My daughter is almost one, and I have no desire to get her off the bottle. All of my other kids were completely off the bottle by the time they were one.

[7] My Grandparents live around the block from me, and I rarely stop to visit. Sad I know! I am going to be better! Sorry G&G.

[8] My 29th birthday is a couple months away, and I am dreading it!

[9] Our 10 year High School Reunion is Tomorrow and I have no desire to go. But, we are going anyways. (please refer to #1)

[10] I am cheap! I hate how much food is anymore. I dont buy "name brand" food. My kids have to suffer with the Walmart, Harmons, or Albertsons brand.(wherever the sales are.)

[11] I am sitting here eating my lunch (Cinnimon Life cold cereal) why blogging instead of working. (please refer to #2 & #3)

[12] I really do think I have the cutest kids in the whole world!
