Memorial Day Weekend 2014

-
First off I would like to start this post off by saying thanks. Thank you to all the men and women who have worked hard and given their lives for this country. Almost a year ago Payden and I made the decision to try for him to join the USAF. And although that didn't work out we are happy now with our life and are constantly grateful for those who serve. 

Friday I kind of had a shopping problem (story of my life). 
New pink Pampered Chef. 

New Origami Owl charms! 

And a ton of new tops. 

Sunday we celebrated Brent's 50th birthday (which is May 26th) and Memorial Day with a BBQ at their house with close family and friends. 

Sunday again: we always see ducks swimming in the pools at our apartment complex. Too cute!

Monday: I finally finished the second book in the Divergebt series and before reading the third one I decided to start reading "A Fault In Our Stars" because a couple of friends of mine want to go see the movie together once I'm done. 


With Payden working third shift, it had given me time to not only catch up on my shows, and housework but also my reading so hopefully I will be reading a lot more here soon! 

Monday- Memorial Day happened to also be my dad's 43rd birthday and my father in law's 50th birthday. Since we celebrated Brent's (my father in law) birthday on Sunday we went to dinner with my family to Old Chicago to celebrate my dad's birthday. 

It was a fun and busy weekend and fill with work for me but I'm glad we got to do so much!

Growing up in Wichita, Kansas my husband has always known about the 'crumply burgers' at NuWay. I on the other hand had never heard of such a thing and never had the nerve to try the restaurant chain that I had never heard of. Yet since we have been dating since high school he eventually got me to try it and I have loved them ever since. When we moved out on our own I wanted to try and save money and figured I could make the 'crumply burgers' myself. After some trial and error I have come up with a recipe that works perfectly for us. A friend asked me to share the recipe, remember that I am not a chef though so there are no real measurements for the recipe but more of a "do what you feel is right". Ingredients: 1 pound of hamburger meat (or more depending on how many you are serving) mustard dill pickles white onion (we only use a little bit, but we always have onions on hand in our place so we take what we need each time) hamburger buns sliced c

This jacket was Brent's when he was a toddler and Payden wore it when he was a toddler and now Wyatt is wearing it. It's so cool to see him in these hand me downs. And I even found pictures of Payden wearing the jacket to compare.
