Thrift store finds!!!

We went to Value Village (our local thrift store) and found some cute things! Two dresses for Alison and two skirts for me!!!! The yellow dress for Alison is a Hanna Anderson, that is a very expensive brand! We got it for $1.50! And it is in great condition!!!






I love both of these skirts I found for myself...they will be great for Summer!! The bottom one is a bit thing so it will certainly need a slip, but it was just so pretty I had to get it!!













Two dresses for Alison and two skirts for me...total spent $12!!! How awesome is that? I love it when we find things with the 50% off tag!!!

Making beef stock!

I started this soup bone on the stove at about 9am and it has been simmering away. I will have some great beef stock at the end of the day. I plan on cooling it and freezing it and then I can just take some out when I need it for soup, stew or gravy! YUM!!!

Picnic dinner at the park...

We have been having such wonderful weather that we decided after hubby got off work that we would go have a picnic supper at the park! It was so nice!!! We didn't even need a jacket when we first got there as it was still warm enough...as the sun started to set a little it got a bit chilly but by that time we were ready to head home. Since Miss Ali slipped off a step and took a tumble. Skinned elbow and knee but nothing a kiss from mama, a band-aid and some ice cream at home couldn't fix!!

Handsome hubby!!


Having fun!!


Me!!

Family of three!!!

Helping mama...

We celebrated a friend's birthday on Saturday! Alison was a very eager helper in the kitchen to make the birthday cake. I must say that after she was done helping, a bath was in order. She had cake batter everywhere!

More silly kitten...

Morrison is just such a silly girl I just have to take pictures of her! We are very happy that she is a part of our family!!!





More fun at the park!!!

Yesterday was such a lovely day we took a picnic to the park. We are very lucky to live about 15 minutes away from a very nice lake that has a great trail all the way around it. We ate, walked around a bit and of course played! Alison just loves the park!!
