Ain't nothin' but a G thang...

My cousin Adam pimpin' his new coat.

Two for Tuesday...

Favorite thing this week:

When Indie sleeps she puts her legs up like this.

I love it.

Few things make me happier...

then pulling down my mom and dads road and seeing their driveway filled with cars of my family members.  This weekend I pulled up to find not only the driveway full but the street was lined with cars as well.  My little girl heart jumped as ran in the house...

Let me back up a little.

My "cousins" came into town again.  We normally don't see them this often but do to Rob's death everyone came down for the funeral.  We attended the funeral on Friday which was amazing.  I laughed and cried, a little more of the latter, and went away with a feeling of peace.  What an amazing family the Eppersons are.

Saturday was jam packed with:

 A pampered chef party

A bridal shower

A trip to Bukoos

A session at the Bountiful Temple

And our new tradition

A fondue party

Luckily, Alicia and I gave Adam and Mindi this rockin' gift for their wedding which has inspired our new found love for fondue.

Indie provided the entertainment,

little Hazel was my new best friend,

and Tony was in his element.

We took a picture of all the cousin's kids that were there.

Indie was asleep so I just held her up all bundled.

We can add one more to the clan in November because Ellynn and Jason just announced that they are PREGNANT.

Thanks for another fun weekend.

I love you guys.

Friday Feature...

Today I would like to feature...

Parker and Jessica Smith

Parker is Tony's brother, and no, I didn't type the wrong name, he married a Jessica too.  Park and Jess were married in September of 2006 and...

had a little prize by the name of Beckam Parker Smith in June of 2007.

They are currently living in California and lovin' the sunshine.  Parker is working in real estate and Jessica is a stay at home mom.

Little Beck is nine months old and is as cute as a button.  He has the biggest eyes and smile and is a perfect mixture of Parker and Jessica.

Beckam loves Sesame Street more than life itself and recently ran into Elmo himself and wasn't even scared.

Indie and Beckam are only 3 months apart in age.  I am so glad they will grow up together.

This picture may frighten some of you but keep in mind the Smith brothers are highly skilled when it comes to "baby tricks."

I have enjoyed getting to know Parker and Jessica since I joined this little family and can't wait to make more memories together throughout our lives.

We love and miss you guys.

MGK...

This month, "My Girlfriend's Kitchen," was at my house and I think it was a *suck-sess.

My meal was significantly easier than last month, I made:

Chicken Stroganoff

2 to 3 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
1 can (4 ounces) mushroom pieces, drained
1 can (10.5 ounces) cream of mushroom soup, condensed
1 tablespoon soy sauce
1 carton (16 ounces) sour cream

Place chicken in greased 2 1/2 to 4-quart slow cooker.
Pour mushrooms, soup, and soy sauce over chicken.
Cover and cook on low heat 6-8 hours or on high heat
3-4 hours. Break up chicken with two forks. 
Stir in sour cream. Cover and cook on low heat 
15-30 minutes. Makes 4-6 servings.
Serve over hot cooked wide egg noodles or rice.

Here's what will be cookin' at my house this month:

Korean BBQ

Cheese Ravioli Bake

Chicken Spaghetti

Pork and Cheese Fiesta

Black Bean Soup

Tator Tot Casserole

Chicken Stroganoff

Cheese Manicotti

Sweet Pork Enchiladas

Chicken and Cheese Tostadas

*I lived in Provo with my cousin Ellynn and after we would have a party she would ask, "Suck or Suck-sess?"  The saying has kind of stuck.

Happy Birthday Fischy...

Fischer Lucas Adams is one year old today.

We hope you have a wonderful day Foo-Fi.

P.S. Doesn't your mommy look beautiful only hours after giving birth to you?

Maddie's Treatment...

Today Maddie wasn't feeling the greatest...
