Come and Gone

Wow!! Is Christmas really over?!?!?! I can't believe my baby's first Christmas has already come and gone!! And 2009 where did it go???? We had a wonderful Christmas!! We spent Christmas eve and Christmas morning at our house and then we headed to Mississippi to spend a long weekend with both of our families! Christmas night we had Christmas with Wilse's family and Saturday night we had Christmas with my family! I also went shopping the day after Christmas to some great shops that had all of their Christmas decorations half off!! Sunday we went to church and hung out at Wilse's parents house and then I had Christmas with my best friend and her mom!! Monday we went and played with my nephews and then Tuesday we headed back to Texas!! It was a great trip and I am so glad we got to spend Christmas with family!!

Brady got way to many toys!! Santa didn't bring him a lot because we knew he was going to get so many things from everybody else!!

I just loved this cow when I saw it in the R & H baby and child catalog!!

And of course Brady had to get a MSU hat and jersey!!

This was one of my mom's gifts. A canvas I painted.

This is the big thing that Wilse got me!! I love it!! I have been wanting one for a long time!!

This pottery platter is what my brother's family got me!! I love it!! Brady was 7 months old when we went and got this done!! I haven't found the perfect place to hang it yet!!

Blueberries and Avocados

Brady is such a good eater, he will eat anything I give him!! I am so thankful for that!! I just hope he stays this way!! We are soooooooooo ready for CHRISTmas around here!! It is Brady's first CHRISTmas and we can't wait until CHRISTmas morning!! We are heading to Mississippi CHRISTmas day to celebrate with our families!! We want to wish you a very merry CHRISTmas from our family to yours!!

Here are some pics from Brady eating last night!!

Merry Christmas!!

Spaghetti with a twist

This is really good and we will definitely be having this a lot!!

Spaghetti Squash with Turkey Meatballs

You will need:

1 large spaghetti squash

1lb ground Turkey

1 jar of your choice of Marinara

Pierce squash with a fork as you would a potato.

Microwave for 12 minutes on high, or bake at 350F for 35-45 minutes. Set to cool.

Cut in half and scoop out the seeds.

Use fork to loosen the squash to create noodles.

Roll Up Turkey into balls (I put a little salt and pepper on top) Bake at 400F for 40 minutes I also put some Marinara on top of the meatballs with about 10 minutes left.

Warm up the Marinara on the stove.

Place Marinara on top of squash and add some meatballs.
