Trying to do my part...

(03-06-09)

My two oldest daughters have inspired me. They are so dedicated to recycling things. I always used the excuse of not having the recycling facilities that they have available to them in Dallas. Actually, I was just being lazy--and doing what I have always been used to--I was taking the easy way out. After seeing how much "throw away stuff" can accumulate I started in a small way. I've been recycling newspapers for several years, but nothing else. Now, we have a small recycling center close to us and I'm expanding to plastic, cardboard, cans and foil. It has really made a difference in our weekly trash. Our large trash bin has barely been half-full the last 3 weeks!!!

How about a layout.....

Isn't this a sweet photo of my cute, lil' Grayson? I started to scrap it with a few other photos that were all taken at the same time, all on one page. But, I kept going back and looking at his long lashes and decided to highlight this picture all by itself. Thanks for looking....

Happy Birthday, Sweet Jennifer!

I remember exactly what I was doing at this time 36 years ago. I was holding and cuddling my sweet firstborn, Jennifer Lou, trying to believe she was really mine. She was the prettiest baby I had ever seen. A parent always has big hopes and dreams for their children, and I can truly say, Jennifer has outdone them all. She is a beautiful daughter, sister, friend and aunt---all rolled into one. She has a huge heart to match her cute little smile. And, don't even think about getting in between her and her 2 adorable nephews----she's without a doubt the "BESTEST" & "COOLEST " aunt Sissy I've ever encountered. I love you bunches, Jen!!! Happy Birthday!!!

Streaming Sunlight...

(03-02-09)

Here's what it looked liked in my bedroom this morning when I woke up. Yeah for sunshine! I have so much more energy when it is bright and sun-shiny. Unfortunately, by the time I came home from work around 1:00 pm--it was already cloudy!!! Oh well, there's always tomorrow...

Asiago Cheese Bread

(02-28-09)

Oh, my goodness!! This bread was so, so yummy! Hubby and I love to eat at Panera Bread. And they have this Sierra Turkey Sandwich that we love--we always get it served on the Asiago Cheese Bread. So, I started wondering if I could find a similar recipe to make it at home. I searched on the net and found this one to try first. We finally found asiago cheese at Albertson's. I'd never noticed seeing it before---but we finally found some. And we loved the results! We made sandwiches with turkey, bacon, cheese, tomato and lettuce--toasted in the oven. All I can say is YUM!!!!
