Weekend Recap

February 29, 2016 By Callie Leave a Comment

This past week/weekend was Go Texan Day here in the great state of Texas. For all you non Texan folk what that means is we celebrate Texas-not the Texans football team but actual Texans. We wear cowgirl wear and dance the square and get ready for Rodeo. It also means the trail riders converge on Houston for the Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo. The really cool thing is that actual cow folk ride their horses and cattle and wagons across Texas on the actual roads and camp out along the way until they end up in downtown Houston for the month long event. To celebrate we had Go Texan Day at music. My little cowgirl played the part.

We also had the first in a month long birthday party adventure. I love that now that our kiddos are getting older we are having more and more parties at places instead of homes. It’s fun to see all the party places our area has to offer. This time we went to an inflatable jumpy house place. Row loved it! It’s fun seeing our precious babes grown from 8 months to 3 year olds in our village of Mamas.

This coming week is filled with music, and speech therapy, and another party!!!! Oh and the neighborhood garage sale where I will be shopping my heart out. If Kon Marie didn’t kill it. As you prepare for your week I pray you have a fun filled, stress less, living in every single moment kind of week. Enjoy the bumps and love the ride.

Breakfast For Dinner

February 26, 2016 By Callie Leave a Comment

I think so…. I myself love breakfast food. I also am not one of those get up before everyone else and cook kind of persons. They mentioned in my Ibloom moms group that we should get up about thirty minutes before our children so we can reflect and read the Bible. I’m all for reading the Bible. I’m not for getting up. I sleep until she’s up or I sit in my bed and stare in peace. Listen I laughed in my head of course.

I love a good breakfast casserole. At night! This sausage biscuit one-soo good. You will need…

Ingredients:

2 cans of buttermilk biscuits (most are 8 to a can)

Jimmy Dean pre cooked turkey sausage crumbles-you’ll thank me later

1 Cup grated cheddar cheese

1 Cup grated mozzarella cheese

8 Large Eggs

Preheat the oven to 350. Spray some cooking spray into a 9×14 pan. Open up the biscuits without scaring yourself completely. Line the bottom of the pan with your uncooked biscuits. Smoosh them together to create a sealed bottom layer.

Sprinkle on top of the biscuits your precooked sausage crumbles. This part was amazing-although you could cook a pound and crumble yourself. Sprinkle on top f the sausage both your cheddar and mozzarella cheeses.

Crack your eggs into a large bowl and whisk, I added a small dash of milk and salt and pepper. Once completely whisked pour eggs evenly over the 9×14 pan covering the entire pan-don’t leave dry parts. Cook for 40-45 minutes and enjoy!

This was so good!!! Everyone liked it and there were leftovers. We ate them for several days including breakfast the next day. I’m not a fan of turkey sausage but couldn’t tell one bit! Make sure you thoroughly whisk the eggs because I had some spots that seemed a bit under cooked because the eggs weren’t completely whisked.

What’s your favorite breakfast? I may have it for dinner.

Weekend ReCap

How was your weekend-was it rowdy or restless?

Our weekend ish started with receiving our box of Matilda Jane goodies in the mail-some for Row and some for Mama. People told me when I was preggo not to count on her loving bows or sparkles or pink. I’m glad they said that so often because I guess she heard those words so much in utero that she came out just that. Girlfriend likes to wear multiple bows at a time and literally hugs her Matilda Jane when it gets here-proof and point.

Friday night was our monthly Girls Gone Wild Night Out-who am I kidding we usually stay in but it is so nice to talk to adults without having tourettes or talking about the littles. Amber over at Fraternal Frenzie hosted and we made these awesome signs. She’s so crafty! I’m looking forward to the next time she hosts us. She and her husband cut all the boards, got all the supplies, tarped the table, she cooked and put her twins to bed and they were actually asleep when we got there at 7!!!

Our dear Melissa is getting ready to have a precious girl to add to our little group and we couldn’t be more thrilled. We threw a shower for her on Saturday and count them-7 of us-7!!!! That’s how many of us wanted to throw this lady a shower-we must like her! She’s as thoughtful as can be and it was so nice to have some time to show her how much we love and appreciate her. Our group is awesome and supportive and encouraging and I couldn’t have had a better prayer answered through them. It’s hard when your best girls live far away. These girls have helped that so much and the love that they have for my child and I have for theirs is oh so evident. Prom picture 2016.

I made the fruit kabobs or Kaboobs as I call them….

And how cute is this cake Katy made-adorable.

We finished off by resting on Sunday and I have been following the #ZootopiaEvent all weekend online. Well because 1. I’m a Disnerd and 2. My cousin Mariah is one of the event goers and I have been having the best time following them. They are doing the coolest things at Disney. Want to follow too? Simply hop onto facebook, instagram, and/or twitter and type #Zootopiaevent and all their adventures will pop up!
