PaWn STaRs

I don't no about everybody else s husbands or even the wives for the matter but mine loves Pawn Stars on the History channel! I hate it! He makes me watch it almost every night, unless Vampire Diaries is on that is. Anyways he went down to Las Vegas to do some installing and he went a found the actual Pawn Stars store! And don't you worry he brought home an autographed picture to prove it!

Ugly Sweater Party

This year I hosted the Christmas Party for our friends! Every year we try to have a party, literally ever since Brandi and I were in 4th grade we have had one. So I made a roast for the first time ever! Brandi made some awesome chip and dip appetizers, and Annie made this really great pretzel/ strawberry jelly desert. We had a really great time and got to catch up on the gossip and the boys watched some sports.


The Girls


Me and Ty


We had so much fun with our friends celebrating the holidays. I cant wait for Christmas, I got Ty some really fun things and I am pretty sure he got me some pretty good stuff too ( cause iv been shaking the presents when he leaves hehe!) I hope everyone is enjoying the season!

Thanksgiving

This year I decided to host Thanksgiving because my grandma is getting to tired and it makes her really stressed out and now I know why! First of all I had to clean my house from top to bottom the night before and then I got sick with the worst cold ever! On Thursday I woke up and thought I was going to die because I felt so sick and I had 25 people showing up to my house in 6 hours! So Ty and I got up and put our game faces on and did it anyways. Everything turned out so good and everyone loved the food but by the time we got everything cleaned up and back to normal I was out like a light! It was so good to get to see all the family that only come around once a year and I'm so grateful for all of you!

Naughty Dog!

Tuckie is obsessed with ripping the limbs off of any new toys I buy him! This is the hedgehog with a Santa hat that he got for waiting in the car for me in the Wal-Mart parking lot :) .. What a brat!


The eyes were ripped off within 5 minutes and it took about a half hour before the back was tore open and the squeaker was out!

Pineapple Upside Down Cake

Last night I wanted to make some beef stew so I found a good recipe and was really excited about it! Well the recipe calls for 4 cloves of garlic but I didn't know that there are 4 cloves inside 1 button of garlic, so I added 4 whole buttons which equaled 16 cloves of garlic to my stew! I didn't figure out what had gone wrong when I was eating it till my friend Angie was asking about the garlic and then explained the 4 clove 1 button rule! I was so sad and let down so tonight I have decided to try baking something brand new that I have never made before and that happens to be.....PINEAPPLE UPSIDE DOWN CAKE!! :)


It turned out fabulous and I want all of you to try this amazing recipe especially if you need a little confidence booster on your cooking cause its super easy but looks kinda hard! Thats the best part! So here is the recipe..

1/4 cup margarine or butter
1/4 cup packed brown sugar
1 can 8 oz. sliced pineapple drained and cut in half
2 tablespoons chopped pecans if desired, Maraschino cherries if desired
1 1/2 cups Original Bisquick mix
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup milk or water
2 tablespoons vegtable oil
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 egg

1. Heat oven to 350 degrees. Melt butter in round pan 9 x 1 1/4 inches, or square 8 x 8 x 2 inches in the oven. Sprinkle brown sugar over butter. Arrange pineapple slices in sinle layer on sugar mixture. Sprinkle with pecans. Place cherry in center of each pineapple slice (cherries with stems can be added after baking).

2. Beat remaining ingrediants in a large bowl for 4 min on low scarping sides often. Pour batter over pineapple.

3. Bake 30 to 35 min or until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Immediatly turn pan upside down onto heat proof serving plate; leave pan over cake for a few minutes. Remove pan and let cake stand at least 10 minutes before serving. Enjoy Friends! :)
