A Little Eye Opener

I saw this on facebook and totally loved it! I think Carolyn did a very good job in her reply to this crazy question. What do you think?

Goldilocks and the Three Bears

Here is my sweet little Jocelyn as the star of her first ever production. I knew they were doing plays for their program on Valentine's day, I just didn't know that she was the star! I'm so proud!!!

It's sort of hard to hear her teacher, but they all did a really great job!

Confessions of an Insomniac

Well, it's five in the morning (which is rediculously early for me), and I officially suck at sleeping! (pardon my language) I haven't updated the good ole' blog in a while so here I am! It seems like there is so much going on in our lives yet not much at all is happening. As most of you know, my family and I live with my mother here in Rock Springs. That's going great! It's such a blessing to be able to save money and be with mom! Jared loves his new job! He's been there for about 3 months and it's going very well. He actually applied for a higher paying position in Casper. We're not sure when we'll hear back about it, after all it took 7 months to get hired for the position he has now. It's sort of a long shot but we figured it was worth a try to apply. We also went to the bank and got pre-approved for a home loan. It is enough to get us into a cute little town-home but not enough to get us into a "House." So pretty much my brain turns to jello at night...thinking about maybe moving to Casper or making it work here in Rock Springs. In the mean-time, the girls are so cute and so funny! Jocie is loving Sun-beans and pre-school! She has a Valentines day program today so I will be posting later with the entertainment she will provide to us. Lizzie is so funny! She's growing up so fast and acting just like big sis. They like to fight over saying the prayer...every time we pray! Jocie usually ends up helping Lizzie and it's so cute! So there is a little update for the world to see!

Valentines Day is Approaching!

Okay everybody, Sorry to do this to you, but I figured I'd give it a try. There is a link on my blog that says...WarmYourHeartAndHome...it goes to my demonstrator Website. So if you are in need of a quick and easy, yet lovely and heart warming Valentines Day gift, Gold Canyon is selling a little Valentines Gift Box...It's a GREAT gift for mothers, mothers in law, sisters, teachers, friends, the list goes on. If you don't want to get the gift box...just get the candle! They come in 5oz, 8oz, 16oz and 26oz. I think it's a great idea and hey, it's not your "average" valentine. It's super easy, and COMPLETELY secure. Thanks guys!

Sweet Pork Anyone?

So whenever I go visit my sister down in Bountiful I'm like one of Pavlov's Dogs! I seem to start salivating when we pull into town because she lives ONE block away from Costa Vida! I ALWAYS seem to make it down the street to this wonderful place! Well, another one of my sisters told me the "Secret" recipe for their sweet pork and I'm kinda freaking out about it! I just made sweet pork quesadillas today and Jocie and Lizzie both said..."MMmmMMmmMMm Kanks Mom!!!" (thanks mom) Oh gosh it was just as good and SOOO Easy! Plus I fed my family for like $6.50 as opposed to paying $8.00 for one quesadilla!

So all of you who are wanting to pinch pennies with out sacrificing taste and quailty....

can I get a WOOP WOOP!!!....

Here's the Recipe: 2lbs pork tenderloin (or pork roast)
1/2 cup Pace Picante Sauce (I used mild)
1 1/2 cups brown sugar
salt and pepper to taste
Put it all in a slow cooker, It took about 2 hours on high...but I kicked it down to low just til it was time to eat:) Basically just cook it til the meat is done, then pull apart the pork to shred it :)This recipe may be doubled, just allow more time to cook. Enjoy!
