dinner planning

I needed some motivation to get a regular dinner scheduele prepared before the week nights started so I wasn't running around to grocery stores every night grabbing ingredients or giving up and going out to dinner instead of cooking at home. I mean, we DO love our Outback dinner nights but I want to provide for my family at home and leave those outtings for special nights. Yes, I'm suffering from guilt. ha! So thankfully Casey posted a menu the other day and this morning I printed my own. Simple and not as cute but it will do. Now, if only I can come up with enough meals for the week. Onto search for new recipes!

ninja milkshake love

y'all, let me tell you the best thing in my world at the minute. literally. 

the ninja and it's perfect milkshakes. I'm not joking. my favorite... peanut butter, milk, vanilla icecream, chocolate sauce (better than goodberry's pbfudge concrete)

 

update: 

 

 

hallelujah

 

I cried when people stood.

I cried when I saw the elderly nodding and beginning to sing along.

I cried when ladies were smiling ear to ear.

I cried when the mother sitting in the pink hoodie, about to cry, took her young sons hand in hers.

I cried when I saw grown men sitting in their seats singing along.

I love that some stood even though they weren't singing.

I love at the end they raised their hands above their head.

I wish this would happen everywhere. Every day.

All glory to our sweetest Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.

Merry Christmas

xoxo
