Happy 16th B-Day

So today is the first day of summer break for Connor and he isn't even at home to enjoy it - well, he's probably enjoying it, but over at Grandma & Grandpa's house! After work last night we went and celebrated his 4k graduation at McDonald's, and then me & Chrissy went to class, Connor went to Grandma & Grandpa's, and Scott & Savannah just went home.I can't believe my baby graduated from 4k!

So it's been 2 weeks, but I wanted to post a Happy Birthday to Scott's cousin Brodie on my blog. He turned the big 16! It's so funny when you're older how quickly kids younger than you grow up. It seems like yesterday he was just this little goofy kid (all kids, not just him, lol) and now he's 16,  just finished his sophomore year of high school and now he'll be driving! Wow! I hope he had a fantastic birthday, and enjoys his gas gift card & banberry jam (I gave his mom a jar for Christmas, so I had to get Jessica to give me another jar so I could give him one for his birthday).

Barbecue Beef & Potatoes

So today is mine & Scott's anniversary. Cant' believe 4 years ago we got married, where does the time go? To celebrate we took the day off of work and we're just going to get stuff done. Scott is going to get the oil change done on my car and I'm going to plant our garden! Later we're going to pick Connor up from school, grab some McDonald's and go to the park and play for a few hours - and then hopefully get a nap in (I love naps!).

So awhile back I turned to a cookbook I've had for awhile (the picture is not the exact one I have, I couldn't seem to find it online - I purchased it from my cousin for $5 as one of those school fundraisers so it's really little but has a variety of recipes in it). I made Barbecue Beef & Potatoes - more for Scott than me as this is more of a "him" meal. Ingredients: potatoes, ground beef, green bell pepper & BBQ sauce. I'll say it was okay I guess. Nothing specially and I really do not like green peppers. It's not something I would make if I got to choose but if Scott really wants it again I'll make it for him.
