My last post was the end of March and the next thing I know I turn around and we are over half way through April! Time flies when you are incredibly busy!
I was reading over my last post and all the things I wanted to get done around the house in April, yeah we have done MAYBE half of what we should have done so far. We just haven't had time. We are finishing up the pool this weekend and re-filling it and then I am going to concentrate on the inside for a while, do the painting and the picture wall and call it good. I'll get around to the rest later on this summer when it is too hot for me to go outside. The pool is looking good, we just need to finish getting the water calcium spots off the jacuzzi and give the whole pool and deck a good power wash and we will be ready for a BBQ! We plan to be home most of the summer because Ryan is taking all 3 semesters of summer school and frankly we spent our vacation money in New York and between our water heater breaking, filling the pool and the rise of gas prices we have no money :) We do have one more trip planned at the end of May but that is basically free because my Uncle Bill and Aunt Ruthann gave us their timeshare for our wedding present and we are going to cash it in 9 months later in San Diego :)
For all those that check out my dad's blog which can be found here probably know that he has been given the okay to come back to Vegas. They have to make a couple stops along the way so probably won't make it back to Vegas until next week, but we are so happy to have them home. The weather is alot cooler in Utah I think it is going to be a shock to them to come back to Vegas :) I am ecstatic to have them home, I must admit though I am going to miss Salt Lake I really like that city alot.
I posted on my facebook a website sent to me by my brother and my mom, I have now made 2 meals off it it, the chicken quesdilla's and the Asian turkey meatballs and have loved both. I am making the skinny sheperds' pie this week and going to try to tackle the banana cream pie for Easter dinner. It's called Gina's Skinny Recipes and is located here. I love that it gives you serving sizes and calories etc.. Matt and Ryan are always subject to my concoctions and hope they all turn out. I think I'll try out a recipe for my In-laws soon also my MIL loves to eat healthy so this might be a website she would like.
Here is a picture of the Asian meatballs, mine looked exactly the same (without that small bowl)! I love when that happens :)
And just for kicks here is a picture of a hamburger my husband sent to me the other day that him and our friend Mike went and ate at Hash House a Go Go. He sent me the picture with the caption..."I killed it" Doesn't it just look gross :)
MEN LOL....
Looking forward to May and getting back to normal, having my parents just down the street :)
Oh and dont' stop praying yet people, we don't find out for another 30 days if the transplant worked as well as we wanted to so we are not out of the woods yet. We are VERY hopeful!
Love to all, I'll be back to a regular blogging schedule now. I think I will talk about TV next time, I watch alot of stupid shows I want to talk about :)
I'm glad my husband isn't a blogstocker or I have a feeling our next date would be at Hash House. I agree it looks pretty gagtastic. I'm glad things are going well with your dad. We'll keep our fingers ever crossed. :)
ReplyDeleteI forgot how big of a burger lover Ted is! If you ever want to indulge him they have lots of great other dishes there too!
