Getting Ready for our Trips

Are you having a busy week?  This week, I am preparing for our two trips this weekend plus tying up loose ends here and there.





Some of the beautiful flowers in my backyard. :)


Tuesdays are our weekly library day.  I got two books for our trip - reading material for the plane. :)


When your mom and dad both send you a card/letter with a little money gift for a special treat - it just makes your day!  My mom and dad both are so special and are intentional on doing little things for us.


I mentioned last week that I registered the girls for their school year next year.  Tuition paid for!  This week, I was able to order the other consumable books needed for the year.  Another checkmark on the To Do list.  We even received our first set of books - some of Summer's books for next year.



Just another to do done - washed, cleaned and vacuumed my SUV for our trip to Reno.


Getting my toes ready for Florida!


So cute!  The girls have been helping to make Eric's lunch.  When I went to pack his lunch in the morning, I found Summer had put a note with the lunch she made for her dad.  Love it!

Today, Thursday, May 13, last minute things before we leave for Reno and Florida!  Will be posting on our trip next week. :)

Happy 45th Birthday, Eric!

  Happy birthday to my husband, Eric!   He turns 45 today.  I am surprising him with tickets to a Miami Dolphins game in Miami.  I got him tickets one other time years ago when we lived in Reno.  We drove to Oakland to see the Dolphins play the Raiders.  I think this will be a great memory for him and a home game too! Happy birthday, babe!

Recipe: Chicken Parmesan

  Chicken Parmesan This is a delicious recipe from Magnolia Table: Volume 2. 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts  1/4 tsp. kosher salt 1/4 tsp. freshly ground black pepper 2 large eggs 1 tsp. garlic salt 1 sleeve (30-40) buttery crackers, crushed 4 oz. Parmesan cheese, grated (about 1 cup) 2 tbsp. olive oil 1 tsp. fresh lemon juice 1/2 cup mayo 1 tbsp. chopped fresh parsley (optional) Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.

In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs and garlic salt until combined.  In another bowl, combine the crackers and 1/2 cup of the Parmesan.
