Dinner out!

My mom and dad wanted to see Ashton and his family so we decided we had to go out to dinner! where you ask? Texas Roadhouse! LOL.... it is always so good there. Lee and Zoe were able to come too. Maddy and Zoe loved the peanuts. Zoe figured out how to smash the peanuts with her hand and she could get the nut out to eat! Gideon loved his food!

not sure where my other pics went. someday I will really figure this out! LOL.... we had fun, ate well, and enjoyed our visit!

Now I have found a new blog! Your cup of cake! OH MY GOODNESS!!!! This is the best cupcake ever!!! we were licking our fingers good. smack your lips good! follow her instructions. she has you start with sifting your cake mix. hmmm, I did it, didn't think it would make a difference - it does! also she has you put the cupcakes in a sealed large bowl to cool. very important. these are so moist and yummy. I think I have to try every single recipe she has for cupcakes. they are to die for.......
ok, back to redwork...... Harriett had the door prize this time. and Charlene won! yeah! she took out this strawberry thing... hmmm what is it?


pull the string and surprize! you have a grocery bag!
