Mistake....

On Monday I volunteered to help with a luncheon happening at church today. That's not the mistake. I'm happy to do it, and as always I'm trying to fill my time with stuff I should do around here, so I feel like maybe I'm making a difference or helping someone in my last days in "the city". Which I guess are numbered, wish I knew what that number was....oh sorry, off track. Well, the nice lady in charge of the luncheon said, oh can you make a pie. I said sure I can. Well, I don't make many pies,so I decided I bet Pioneer Woman has a good pie recipe. As much as I love Rachael Ray, she's not a pie maker! So I made this pie. I decided I would make 2, at the same time, so I could make sure the pie was edible. Well, I didn't have time to taste the pie before I dropped it off. The nice lady said it looked delicious, and it did; I nicely told her that I hoped it was good because I had never made it before. I'm sure that's comforting. Well, after I got worked by P90X arms, shoulders, and really worked by Ab Ripper X, I thought I deserve a piece of this pie. Let's just say, after you make this you won't be buying any apple pie filling or frozen apple pies ever, EVER again. That was my mistake, I made 2 of these, and while I gave 1 away, you're going to have to fight me for some of my leftover pie, cause I just might eat the whole entire thing....just look at it, wouldn't you?

Plus I even had planned to bring it to work, and share, but I just couldn't do it, it was too good. Just fyi, I used a frozen crust and no nuts on top!


Probably should have....



So after months of not caving in, I decided to buy P90X. Jeremy has wanted to try this for a while, and while I hear stories of this being amazing and transforming your body, I wasn't a believer. I thought my running is free, but let's be honest, I've been "running" for a while, and I think I've hit my plateau, so I needed something new. My cousin is doing this, and I think she is looking great, so I bought this on Ebay. I'm 2 days in, I don't think I've ever been this sore in my life. The sad part is I don't even to the complete work out, just what I can do. I have to do modified pushups and pullups, but honestly, sore has never felt this good. So I took a before picture, which if I look anything like I hope to when this is done I'll post with an after picture. So, if you're wondering what I do with all my free time I have right now,you know since Jeremy isn't here during the week, besides, working, cooking and blogging everyday, and being a mom to Cooper....after he goes to bed, it's all about the P90X. Although, today I did it and he played in his room, and would come in and look at me...his face said....ummm Mom seriously? What are you doing, that guy on tv is nuts." My brother said I should start another blog, about doing P90X. Yeah, that's not happening. But this blog will be changing when we move (if we ever get to move), it'll be bigger and better, so have no fear, I'll still be here!


New Teething Toy

The other night we had corn at dinner, and I cut Cooper's corn off the cob. So he would be able to eat it. What I forgot is this kid has a mouth full of teeth, and since he still says no words, he kept pointing at my cob, so this is what happened.


I think it felt good on his teeth coming in, cause he's got a few more coming.


last beach post

Well I narrowed down my hundreds of pictures from the beach to these in the slide show....he was just too cute this year!



More Beach...

Someone out there requested more pics, here are a few. I've really got way more then I can possibly choose from, but these are my current favs!






even David and Leslie joined us yesterday!

Don't worry there is more where that came from. Also, be praying for us as we transistion to Southeast Oklahoma. Jeremy made it there safely today and will be staying at a church not to far from the school until Cooper and I can join him. We need to sell or rent our house asap, so if you know anyone, send them our way!


He owns this beach





and lastly, how sweet are these 2 dads?


We're off

Hopefully Cooper won't have to write this again to another hurricane. Here's hoping he's outgrown this too....



I don't think little boys outgrow eating dirt for years, and I'm pretty sure we'll be lucky if we can get him to sit still for 1 picture on the beach!


We'll be back and hopefully while we're gone things with our house will be settled and I can find us a place to live in the country!
