Today is my Dad’s 62nd birthday. Although, he is not on Earth to celebrate it, I know he is cycling pain and care free in Heaven, then finishing up the day with a few beers.

Fall is my favorite season, so I’m so happy that it’s finally official! I’ve enjoyed getting inspiration from boards on pinterest and bloggers sharing their fall bucket lists, like the one from Adventure Mom and Love of Life . Kids Activities blog also had a great list of things to do with family during the fall. I made a list of all the great things that I try to do every fall. So here’s my Fall Bucket List 2014. What’s on your list to do this fall?
This Chicken And Cheese Quesadillas recipe is so easy. I’m not sure how many of you have a panini maker. It was one of those interesting gifts I got from the in-laws which turned out to be awesome! However, I got tired of throwing bread and a different variety of meats in there, so I decided to try quesadillas in the panini maker. So much easier! Even if you don’t have a panini maker, still a super easy thing to put together for a tailgate. Servings: 4 Prep Time: 5 minutes Cooking Time: 5 minutes Ingredients: taco seasoning 1 lb.…

At the end of the summer, Alex went to acolyte training at church. A few weeks ago, he and all the new acolytes were installed and recognized. He received his cross.
Today I’m sharing about our day at Turner Field watching our beloved Braves play. On Labor Day this year, we went to the Braves Game. It was a blistering hot day, but we managed to enjoy ourselves even though the Braves lost to the Phillies. We found our seats, which were great by the way. Then, we got up to go see if we were early enough to see the pep rally that they do out on the concourse.
This is a post that never got published from about year ago. This was an email I sent to my 2 bosses to let them what happened one evening at the Circulation Desk. Had a weird occurrence this evening, but wasn’t sure if it warranted an “incident report.”

Recently when I made the Bacon Cheeseburger Roll-Ups, I decided it was too good to limit to just that. I was having a craving for buffalo chicken. This buffalo chicken roll-up recipe is so easy, whether you use the refrigerated dough or pre-make the homemade dough in the bread machine. I love that they are good for a lunch or dinner on the go, which with our busy schedules is wonderful! Servings: 6 Prep Time: 25 minutes Cooking Time: 20 minutes
Well, it’s taken me forever to finally wrap up my Atlanta Staycation posts, but I’m finally getting to it. Yay!! If you recall, this year instead of doing our typical mountain trip we decided to stay closer to home and just spend a couple days in Atlanta. We stayed busy the 2 and half days we were there.

One of my favorite parts of Fall is getting to enjoy caramel apples, but what would make it even better is not getting caramel all over my face in the process!

I’ve read several blogs lately of people who are in long distance relationships. It got me thinking back to the relationships that I was in back in college that were long distance. I am happy to say that the last long distance relationship I was in ended up in marriage! 🙂 17 years strong! I thought I’d write a post about somethings that can make being a part a little easier as well as keeping each of you in check. I’ll have to preface this by saying that I am a bit envious, as the internet was in it’s infancy…
The other day I was looking at the commercial brand taco seasoning container. I noticed on the ingredients list that it included all sorts of stuff that was not just seasoning. At that point, I decided to try and make my own Taco Seasoning Recipe to lessen the amount of all those extra chemicals, preservatives, etc that my family ingests. Every little bit helps, right?

Yes, there was a time when my teenage son did not procrastinate. School started and some of my friends who have kids in high school, reminded me that homecoming this year is early. They mentioned that they were urging their sons to figure out who they were going to ask and go ahead and git er done (as we say in the South.)
