Scrapbooking with Theis'

So I went to Walmart tonight to print pictures so I could start Kaylee's school album! The book itself is done but needs pictures.. So I took 174 pictures and got them printed! Eeeekk! Thankfully I have been saving change for a few months and it ended up being $36.61.. my pictures only came to $24.90 so I had $12 extra in which Joe decided I needed to stop to get him some beer with it! Anyways... She is only in the second grade and I have 174 pictures!!! Thats CRAZY!!!!!

Tomorrow I will be heading to Theis'! I have not actually sat to scrapbook in years! So I am WAY behind!!! But it doesnt help that I had two babies in two years! I have been a busy lady. No doubt!

Today was the coldest day so far this year!! When I took Kaylee to the bus this is what the van read...


Can we say COLD!!!! Then you have to tack on the windchills which were as cold as -35!!!

Oh and incase you are looking for an update on my pains, well.. I went to see a doctor on Thursday morning. He wants to do an IUD! Which I WILL NOT do! Side effects = heavier bleeding (I already have heavy bleeding), weight gain, etc.. I am not interested in any heavier bleeding then the ICK that I have now nor do I need any more pounds by any means!!!! I was supposed to go in for an ultrasound to see if we could find anything wrong yet tonight, but I didnt go.. My back is killing me!! I am not sure what the problem is exactly, but I think it might be a pulled muscle or a knot.. Its right next to my left shoulder blade (closer to my spine) and it honestly hurts to move at all! Even to breathe is a pain.. I am not sure how I did it, but I would like to not have to deal with it for another day.. Anyways back to the pains.. I am just going to let it go.. forget about it for now and see how next month pans out..

But I am going to bed now.. finally got the babies to sleep and hopefully Nan crashes soon! That dang kid is like the Energizer Bunny!!!! She just keeps going and going and going and going... you get the idea!

Marry Me Meatballs

 I can’t say no to crockpot recipes and Your Barefoot Neighbor shared this one so I had to try it. I’d like to say my children aren’t picky but they all have their own quirks when it comes to food and my youngest daughter didn’t care for the sun-dried tomatoes. Everyone else enjoyed it as it is.  Marry Me Meatballs Ingredients 2 lbs frozen Italian meatballs 4 C chicken stock 1 jar sun-dried tomatoes, drained and chopped  1 can cream of chicken soup Italian seasoning Garlic powder Onion powder  Red pepper flakes 2 lbs gnocchi (shelf stable ones) 1/2 pint heavy whipping cream Baby spinach  Shredded Parmesan cheese (I used shaved Parmesan) Directions Add meatballs, chicken stock, cream of chicken soup, sun-dried tomatoes and seasonings to crockpot. Cook on high for 3 hours. When that is done add in your gnocchi, heavy cream and baby spinach and cook for another 30 minutes on high. Top with the Parmesan cheese. Serve with garlic toast. 

Sausage & Rice Casserole

 Last night we failed to pull anything out of the freezers for dinner. Seems to be a common thing here in this house and it’s quite frustrating. I went to my fridge and saw the mushrooms I had gotten and remembered there was a TikTok recipe for them. Y’all this was the EASIEST meal!  Sausage & Rice Casserole Ingredients  1 lb Jimmy Dean sausage 2 pouches of Uncle Ben’s long grain and wild rice  1 1/2 C. Mozzarella or Cheddar cheese, shredded  1 can of golden mushroom soup 1 package of sliced mushrooms  Directions Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Brown sausage, add in mushrooms once almost all the way cooked. While that’s cooking down, pop your rice pouches in the microwave per the instructions. When they’re done add them in with the sausage and mushrooms. Also add in your can of golden mushroom soup and the shredded cheese. Mix it all up and put in the oven for 15 minutes. 

Creamy Au Gratin Potatoes

Oh man! This side dish is absolutely one we will be keeping around! It’d be really good on the smoker too! I do feel like it’s missing some seasonings so the next go around we will play with adding in some smoked paprika and garlic too!  Creamy Au Gratin Potatoes Ingredients   8 medium russet potatoes, thinly sliced 2 medium onion, sliced into rings salt and ground black pepper to taste 6 tablespoons butter 6 tablespoons all-purpose flour 1 teaspoon salt 4 cups milk 3 cups shredded Cheddar cheese   Directions   Gather all ingredients. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Butter a 2-quart casserole dish. Layer 1/2 of the potatoes in the bottom of the prepared casserole dish; season with salt and pepper. Layer onion slices over top, then top with remaining potatoes. Season again with salt and pepper. Melt butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Gradually whisk in flour and salt and cook, whisking constantly until raw flour flavor has cooked off, abo...
