Welcome

I am proud of my family. I love Jesus. I am not perfect. I like junk food, particularly potato chips. I work out with my sexy rock star husband. I hate it. I do it for the company. My children make my heart beat. I was once a full time photographer. I retired to loose my sanity by becoming a stay-at-home Mom. I recently came out of retirement to avoid the looney-bin. Please enjoy the funny stories of my family, the hilarity of me trying to work out & find my skinny and the every-now-and-then crafts that I begin but rarely finish.
God Save The Queen.....

First Crawfish of the Season

Well, thank you Super Bowl for giving us an excuse for having a big Sunday meal with all the fam!! What a treat to have a crawfish boil so early in the season! And ohhhh, were they yummy! Don't know who you have in your family who is that one "go to" person who can boil the heck out of seafood, but in our family is my Father-In-Law, Mr. Jimmy!! No body can boil 'em like he can! His seasoning is dead on: Perfect taste with out all of the blasting heat - you know the kind that leaves your lips burning after! And sometimes, when there is crab boil left over, he sprinkles it over the crawfish after he's dumped it on the table and that gives it a great kick! (insert the drool....now!) We ate and ate and ate and still had left overs after it was all said and done! I always think of the "loaves & fishes" story when we eat crawfish because we always wonder if we've bought enough but they seem to multiply everytime someone new sits down at the table!!

We watched the Super Bowl at both Parents houses; 1st half @ the Stellys & 3rd quarter @ Mom & Dad's. Came home to a very quiet house - all 3 kids were sacked out before we got to the bridge so Chris got watch the last quarter & see his team win! He's been a Steelers fan all his life - so cute, we even have an old Steelers helmet he had as a kid that's now in Alexander's room. He lets Alexander put it on every now & then and he looks like a Bobble-Head Doll! HI-larious!

Okay so you really suck! With every pregnancy I have extreme cravings for crawfish which had already started before I found out I was pregnant! I will get me some crawfish soon enough!
