I stuck to simple and easy this week and it worked out well!  Tacos, pork chops, chicken spaghetti al fredo, all easy family favorites that come together quickly!

I'm Grateful For

My sweet precious Gabrielle who turned 2 yesterday.  (2!  When did that happen?)

My dear friend who suffered a loss this week, and for all women dealing with the pain of infertility.

Things I'm Working On

Our back yard.  We are putting in grass soon and every night this week will be devoted to moving dirt and sifting rocks out of it.
