{My Nephew}

Last week was a pretty exciting week here. I got to meet my nephew, Mylan, for the first time! The kids were so excited to play with their new cousin. He;s actually 7 months old now, but they live in Oregon, so we don't get to see them more than once or twice a year. We love and miss you o much Mylan!

I was featured for the circus themed baby shower I threw for my brother last year. Wow that was neat to see my pic on her blog! Thanks!

{It's my favorite time of the year!}

Yep that's right it's spring and I love it! I have to admit that there are a lot of times during the summer that I am hating living in the inland empire, but you can't beat spring here. The weather is wonderful, perfect and it smells amazing at my house thanks to the orange blossoms. But here's my favorite part, my men in blue are back! Yep that's right "It's time for Dodgers baseball!" Rick and Logan went to opening day today and I will say I was jealous I couldn't go, but they had a great time and that's all that matters.

{Too Long}

It's been way too long, I know but like I said I cannot figure out how to get my pictures smaller? But here are a few that I took from my phone recently. This is especially for you aunt Paula!

Hi out there!

I haven't been blogging lately for the simple fact I get so FRUSTRATED when I post a picture and it's cut off. I never had this problem before and all the sudden I do. I've changed nothing. If you want to help me, please do! I cannot write another post until I figure this out. I've tried resizing, changing from middle to the left and right of the page etc. Agh!!!

No Bake Cookies!

I'm sure you all remember these. They are my mom's favorite and after talking about them yesterday I gave it a whirl. If you love something yummy and easy these are for you. It takes maybe 10 mins! Here's the recipe:

2 cups white sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup butter
1/2 cup milk
1/2 cup peanut butter
3 cups rolled oats
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 cup powdered chocolate drink mix

DIRECTIONS
In a medium saucepan, over medium heat, combine the sugar, salt, butter and milk. Bring to a boil, then boil for 1 full minute. Remove from heat and stir in the peanut butter, oats, vanilla and chocolate drink mix. Drop by spoonfuls onto waxed paper. Let stand until completely cool.
