Seems like we have had a lot going on lately. Jon is still out of work which really stinks! He is going crazy, but he does enjoy being home with Aidyn. My neice and Nephew Shyann and Wyatt started indoor soccer so that is 4 days a week we have managed to go to most of them. I enjoy going and supporting them and see how much they have improved from year to year. Especially Shyann she is going so great, Im very proud of her.
We had a very nice Easter! It turned out to be a great day. We had our Easter dinner with my family on Saturday so we could all be together it was a lot of food and visiting! The kids all had a great time finding eggs and playing out side all day. Thank you Jesus for a beautiful day.
Sunday we went to the Egg hunt at the park with our friends Rodney and Karrie and Tevyn, Cheyanne, Mckenna. The kids had a great time finding eggs and then playing at the park.
I am so thankful for many things in our life right now. Its hard with our financial situation, but I know that we are blessed to have each other, great friends and wonderful family.
We have a roof over our heads and we dont go without food!!, (we could go without some haha!)
Im grateful to have a great job that I do enjoy. WE are all healthy and love each other!!
Just thought I would share a little. I will post some pics soon!!!

Pirate Stew
So I was home from work this morning and thought I would make something in the crockpot, which I always intend to do and dont. Anyway Jon and I together found this recipe and it turned out amazing so I thought I would share it.
Pirate Stew-
3/4 c sliced onion
1 lb ground beef
1/4 c uncooked, long grain rice
3 c diced raw potatoes
1 c diced celery
2 cups canned kidney beans, drained
1 tsp pepper
1/8 tsp salt
1/4 tea chili powder
1/4 tea worcestershire sauce
1 c tomato sauce
1/2 c water
1. brown onion and hamb together, drain
2.Layer ingredients in slow cooker in the order given.
3. Cover, coook on low for 6 hours or until potatoes and rice are cooked.
We did also add carrots 2 cups between the potatoes and celery, I also added more worcestershire sauce(cause I love it) so I probably added maybe 1/4 c, and seasoned it to my own taste.
One thing you might add more of is rice we couldnt really tell it was there.
Also we added about a cup more water that it called for.
Hope you all try it! it was wonderful!!
