Laser Tag

Kayden turns six in two weeks! Since his birthday is in the winter there is not a whole lot of stuff for boys to do, besides bowling really.......Sooooo (Im probably nuts for this) BUT Derek and I are taking 6 boys over to Terre Haute to XTreme laser tag. They get to play for two hours, and have pizza and cake. Kayden is SUPER excited about this. This is his first time really having other kids besides his cousins go and do something. So he cannot wait! I will def. post pictures of the party! It should be fun!!

Day before Thanksgiving

I know most of you have heard about the Turkey story! BUT for those of you who havent. I had a horrible day Wednesday! Let's See! To start off I got up an hour early to start the brining process for the first turkey ive EVER made. Everything went very smooth. It was time to leave so I put the big dutch oven of the brining solution into the fridge to cool and then Derek was going to go tehre and pour it onto the turkey. Everything was great! Kayden and I left the house at 7. At 8:15 I get a call from Derek going "BALLISTIC" that he spilled all of the brining solution everywhere it was a mess blah blah blah.....so needless to say the floor got brined that morning! SO! I was so upset. I ordered the brining from a special store followed the pioneer womans steps and so now all day Wednesday I had to find a brining recipe. Needless to say my 14.00 brining episode turned into 40.00 becasue I had to buy all of the seasonings seperate! UGH! It was crazy busy at work I was by myself that day! THEN on the way home I get pulled over and get TWO warnings! Yes 2! I was in huge path of cars and THEY ALL were speeding and i was in the middle! He pulls me over and said I stuck out like a soar thumb because i had a head light out! FINALLY I got home, started the brining process all over again. This was my first time making a turkey. I shoved apples, cinnamon sticks, rosemary, sage, all kinds of crap in that turkey. Taking it out of the roaster it looked like it puked a christmas tree up haha, with the rosemary sprigs and everything! Needless to say everyone loved the turkey! and they all gave Derek alot of crap about not touching anything in the kitchen that day! haha! The turkey turned out! NEXT YEAR ILL TRY THE PIONEER WOMANS BRINING RECIPE!
