Apple Pie

So this weekend I'm going to make my vary first home made Apple Pie. I'm not the best with baking so I hope it goes well. I will post the pic and recipe if i think it was a good apple pie...wait if my husband thinks it's a great apple pie he is my critic.

Wish me luck ;)

Crockpot

I love using my crock pot it is one of my favorite things to use. I work full time and my husband works two full time jobs. It is so much easier for me to use the crock pot to have a great home cooked meal ready when you walk in the door... I use a friend of mine Alicia her sisters blogger and I'm in love with it..it's called 365 days of slow cooking and it is so helpful she did a great job and I love the movie Julia and Julia because it reminds me of her blog. I have a fix it and forget it cook books and there are several recipes in there but need more new great KID friendly ideas. I have a 4yr old and trying to get him to eat anything it sometimes a battle. So if any ones reads this and has any great ideas for crock pot kids friendly ideas...Comments please :)

Crock pot dinner tonight is 4 chickens breast, salt, pepper and minced garlic with 2 cans of cream of mushroom soup and a can of cheddar cheese soup on low for 8 hrs i hope its good when we get home I'll report back :)

So dinner turned out ok not something that I will probably make again. I served it over rice.

Ione Train




The Scheller met up with us after church and we took off on a road trip to Ione Washington to take a 2hr fall train ride. Beautiful 60 degree fall day and hr and a half car ride and we get there and the train is SOLD OUT!!!!! OMG i was so sad i felt so bad that we drove all that way and nothing...The kids where sad :( We watched the train leave and then drove all the way back to spokane and went to ihop that made it all better for the kids. Next time we know to buy tickets before we travel all that way :)

Fall

I love the fall, but a little sad to say that we are not going to be able to have this nice fall 60 degree weather much longer. It's November now and we are almost done with Soccer, we have one more day this saturday the 7th and we will be sad to see it go but also its been a little colder not for the boys but the parents :) Matthew has done great at Soccer he has been scoring 2-3 goals each game and had improved more and more over the last 6 weeks. We will now have to wait until April to start back up for Spring season. In the mean time we will start back up with Swim lessions. Start hanging back at the Y since it's gonna start snowing soon i'm sure.
