Monterey Bay Aquarium

If you visit the bay Area, this place is a must! Riley had a school field trip there, and we all had so much fun, everything is so beautiful!


Riley and all her classmates.


This was the prettiest thing, it was an entire room with a Ginormous tank.
This is Chloe pointing.

Summer's almost here!

A few things we love about Summer:


Otter Pops
You can never get enough, seriously


The Sandbox
Love/hate relationship: Kids get hours of play,
I spend all day cleaning sand off the floor.


Fresh Cali Fruit
Mike whipped this dish up on Mothers Day (so cute)


Flip Flops
Wish I could wear them year round

The Beach
Don't get me started
(You just might get sick of beach pictures this summer)
My Favorite Season!

Thanksgiving in the Spring

Last week, I made this recipe that came from my Mom, its called Turkey Casserole.

It tasted so yummy and comforting, it reminded us of Thanksgiving. Its easy too!

Try it!

2 boxes of prepared stuffing
2 cups of diced, cooked turkey (I only had chx breasts, it still tasted great)

Place cooked stuffing on the bottom of a 9x13
Add turkey on top of stuffing

Topping
Cook all together in pan until thick:
1/2 c butter (I used smart balance)
1/2 c flour
2 c chicken broth
1/2 c milk
1 tsp salt
2 well beaten eggs

Pour over turkey

Top with 1/2 cup bread crumbs
Bake 35o for 20-25 minutes, or until topping is cooked through.

Serve with Cranberry Sauce.

Yumm! Enjoy your Thanksgiving in the spring!!
