The Inside Scoop...at least some of it!

So by the time I actually got these pictures posted they are over a week old...but I won't be going back to the house until this weekend so I thought I would post these anyway since so many have asked for inside pictures.


Here is the dinning area that leads to the family room


My beloved Kitchen! These cabinets make me happy!



What else makes me happy you ask?? We close on NOVEMBER 13(!) Craziness here we come!

Happy Finds

I woke up yesterday morning with a cold sore(blast those things) indicating that I'm not doing well with managing my stress(moving all be it a good thing is very stressful). I found this happy scripture in Philippians and it helped me take a sigh of relief. The whole book of Philippians is pretty much a happy find!

"Rejoice in the Lord alway: and again I say, Rejoice. Let your gentleness be known unto all men. The Lord is at hand. Don't be unduly concerned about anything; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God. And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall guard your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus." Philippians 4:4-7

Going Green

So do you ever find it difficult to get your kids/yourself/your husband to eat veggies?

Solution= Green Smoothies!!Just add a couple of handfuls of spinach to your morning smoothie and bada bing bada boom! You can't taste the spinach, it just turns the smoothie a funny green color. So if you can get past the color you can get a lot of much needed nutrition in your diet as well as your little one! E loves them and so do I! It's an easy way to get some veggies in me!

Recipe

1 cup water (juice if you want it to be more sweet)

5 or 6 frozen strawberries

Handful of frozen blueberries(if you have them)

1 banana or apple(the sour kind are really good in it)

2 handfuls of fresh spinach

blend until creamy smooth

Drink up!

(Really it changes often..I add or subtract depending on what I have. So feel free to change it up a bit. Some other things I've tried-plain yogurt, mango's, romaine lettuce, grapefruit)

Warning...may cause green poop! My friend says they make E's diapers stink too but I'm not sure if it's the smoothie or what??

My mom says the key to success is to start your kids young and they will think green smoothies are normal;)
