Tried and True

I have shared many time how much I love meatloaf. As I'm writing this I am thinking about making one tonight. The one thing I love is you can put whatever you are in the mood for in it and it usually turns out great. I also enjoy leftovers made into sandwiches; it's kind of like a meatball sandwich.  So a few weeks ago Honey was out of town and I decided to make a meatloaf that I had received to try from Mixes in the Heartland. I made it exactly like the package said but topped it with a sweet cranberry sauce. It was another hit, with me at least as I didn't offer any to any other person. I froze part of it and ate it for several meals.

I have also tried another ThinkThin bar and gave my husband one, he liked it so that we ordered several boxes to keep on hand.

So what are you waiting on check out these sites and make a purchase. You'll be glad you did!

Supper with Old Friends

Recently while Honey and I were heading home from the farm we met with some dear friends in Starkvegas for supper. Ben, Ash and Punkin were also able to join us. It was sooo much fun catching up on what's going on in all of their lives. We have all moved since last seeing each other and gone through many changes. The photos of the grand-children were passed around and I could not believe how much there's have grown, times just passes too fast.


Here are a few photos from our night thanks to Ashia!

The whole gang!

PePaw will do ANYTHING for this girl.

She made her rounds and spent time in the arms of everyone at the table. Thank you friends for helping to take care of her.

We love our friends! Because we have each lived in several different areas and me in another country we have friends spread all throughout the US and Central America. We don't get to see them half as much as we would like but we sure feel blessed when we do.

My 4th of July

I had a wonderful Fourth of July weekend what made it so special is that Honey took a few days off and we spent time with the kids.

On the Thursday before the fourth we attended Stars and Stripes and the 1st Annual Boat Parade in Greenwood here are a few of the photos from that night.

We took a picnic with us and ate at the park while listening to the live entertainment. 

What a great shot NOT. I am trying to put Punkin's straps to her blouse up on her shoulders.

Uncle Sam was there and he asked Punkin if she would have her picture taken with him;

she had no problem saying NO.

Some of the boat parade

We left before the fireworks because we were hot and Punkin had, had enough. But we enjoyed our time together in the park, I hope we can attend again next year and this time maybe we can stay for the fireworks.

On Friday the men went to check out the farm and look at farm equipment so the girls went out to lunch and did a little shopping. Then on Friday night we cooked out at the house.

On Monday the 4th we went to Starkville and had a fun relaxing day of watching movies, eating and playing with Punkin. 

I love it when the family can get together we stay too busy to do this often but there have been a few times that we managed to get together lately. Soon it will be harvest time and the times to get together will be few and far in between.
