Lots of Layouts

Well time sure flies I swear. Where has the time gone since I last blogged??? Well I just have been meaning to post some of my favorite layouts. I just kept running out of time. So here is a bunch of them.

The scorpion

Yes this is what was on our wall just outside the front door on Sunday evening. We got home from the grocerry store and the lights were off (keep forgetting it gets so dark early now). So we came in and the kids brought in the bags. I turned on the porch light only to see this on the wall. OH MY GOSH!!!!!!!! A scorpion. Jacob caught it in an old baby formula can. FREAKED me out. Kind of like the snake on the walk way just after we moved in.

On another note. Our cars were broken into AGAIN last night. Same thing happened about 2 weeks ago. Again nothing was taken. Just everything in the glove boxes and center consoiles were taken out and gone through. The police came and took a report. Said they had to go down the street becasue the same thing happened last night to another car, and nothing taken there either. Strange. The cop said he thinks it is probably some punk kids since not even the gift cards from his wallet were taken. Just all over the truck. Strange, but glad that nothing was taken.

Well cleaned the house yesterday. Today I want to catch up on loads of laundry. I actually only have about 2 loads left. However I have about 3 to still fold. So I want to do that and get in some scrapbooking today. We will see. I also have a cranky 2 year old running around here today. Hopefully he will take a nap soon.

Until next time.

Halloween and other stuff.

How is it that Halloween was almost a week ago already??? Where does the time go sometimes? Here are some pictures from Halloween.

Ryan was a vampire. Here is Uncle Daniel doing his makeup.

Marcus was a scary skeleton.

Baby Jacob was a not scary skeleton.

Baby Caleb was a penguin. He filled out the costume so well and looked just like a penguin. :)

I was unable to get a photo of all the kids together becuase Jacob was terified of Marcus costume so we didn't even try. Oh well. I got them each indiviually though.

This is the only mark from my car accident last Tuesday. I think it is so....I don't even know the words. It is the perfect shape of a heart. I don't even know what I scratched it on??? But yes a perfect heart. Just dealing with the insurance now. Have to call her insurance since it was her fault. Great joy.

Working on some fun scrapbook stuff. Making a BoBunny chipboard word book. Loving that.

Recipe Tuesday

1-2/3 cups hot water
1 pkg. (6 oz.) STOVE TOP Stuffing Mix for Chicken
1-1/2 lb. boneless skinless chicken breasts, cut into 1-inch pieces
1 can (10-3/4 oz.) condensed cream of mushroom soup **I USE CREAM OF CHICKEN**
1/3 cup BREAKSTONE'S or KNUDSEN Sour Cream
PREHEAT oven to 400°F. Add hot water to stuffing mix; stir just until moistened. Set aside.
PLACE chicken in 13x9-inch baking dish or 2-qt. casserole dish. Mix soup and sour cream until well blended; pour over chicken. Top with stuffing.
BAKE 30 min. or until chicken is cooked through.

** I also add lemon juice into the sour cream and soup mixture. It adds something and makes the sour cream not curdle when you cook it**

I will share some scrapbooking stuff hopefully later today. Until then Happy Creating.
