painting

Well I have a normal looking home well living room and entry way, but still it is not all white and disgusting. so I started on Friday and got done with the living room about 1am until I noticed there were some spots that needed to be fixed, anyways I grab the other can of paint and start fixing the one spot and noticed it was not blending very well. I decided to wait until morning to see if it will blend and low and behold it...didn't, well I was MAD! the stupid freaks didn't mix it right and so I went to walmart and got them to fix it and then I was happy. Anyways I finished Saturday night and after church (don't judge) Steve and I put up the trim. and Wa La we are done and I am so happy!
Well monday came around and I got alittle antsy and painted our front door and changed the locks and now we have a beautiful baby blue door and a new door knob and dead bolt! HOORAY FOR ME FOR BEING SO AMBITIOUS!
Pictures below (except the door, you will just have to wait until morning for that. ;)

well it is official

WE HAVE A WALKER! He wants to walk everywhere, although he sometimes gets tired and crawls for a few feet and then stands up and then it starts again. Thursday evening is when we really noticed his interest in actually moving his feet when he stands, ever since then he has been going everywhere on his feet. Yesterday he was helping me sweep my carport, haha he would not let go of the broom for anything, so I just let him have it. Today it was he wanted me to take him out of the shopping cart and let him push the cart. We were going about negative 10 miles an hour but he was happy.
By the way....
The recipes have not been all that good or exciting lately, maybe thursday night will be better. sorry!

Wednesday June 9

Well this is an interesting post because wednesdays are usually the days I just have salads because Steve has sword fighting wednesday and he doesn't eat dinner. But he stayed home and so I had to find something, so we had chicken cordon bleu with french fries :). the chicken you can just get in a box in the freezer section in walmart. so there wont be a recipe for that sorry.

Recipe for Tuesday June 8th 2010

Taco Turkey wraps

Ingredients:
2/3 sour cream
2 tablespoons of Taco seasoning
tortillas
cheese
1/2 lb of deli thin cut turkey (I think next time I will just use chicken cubed)
salsa (if want to use)

mix the sour cream and the taco seasoning together. spread over tortillas, sprinkle cheese, top with the meat; roll up and enjoy.
These were really good, but steve thinks that it is an odd combination (deli turkey with taco flavor) and to try chicken cubes next time.

oh I also put lettuce in ours to add the greens to our meal ;)
