What a year so far. Three months already in the books. Man time flies by so quickly. Life has handed us a few trials already but we are still alive and kicken. Now of course with every trial we have had ten things to smile about. Kids are healthy and happy. Dave is working out and loving 40. I am 39 and going strong. Dragon is doing awesome and is now looking like a duck boy. Hmmm ya know what ... I just realized we need to take a family photo. But here is one of my favs from 2012 .....Christmas!!!So as most know we do not eat out like ever. Not only is it truly not the best for you but we can not afford it. LOL! Six people eating out means a nice sized total on the tab ... sometimes a jaw dropping "did we really need gas this week" total. *grins* But anywho..... We have started to blog our food finds. We are still doing the new meals thing that we started a few years ago but not everyday is new like before.We try to mix it up and go out of our comfort zone a couple times a week now. The girls love helping ... it is really nice having two beautiful assistants to the assistant Chef to Chef Dragon. LOL! I have a few posted already today. Good thing to because my phone was filled with food prep pics. LOL!
I am crocheting up a storm getting ready for the Bazaar on April 27th. Beth , the sewing prodigy child, helped me out today in a huge way by sewing together material I have for a lapghan. Yes sewing material AND crochet in one project. I am hoping it turns out as wonderful as it is looking right now. I have enough for two in this style but have an idea for a granny square version as well. Here is a sneak peek of the material part. 
I have also started Knitting. It drives me nuts but I am getting the hang
of it ..... on good days. LOL! Here is some of the scarves. Oh and
Harli showing the how nuts I looked after making my 1st knitted scarf.
The best news of the year so far is Dragon and I quit smoking!!! Our last cigarette was January 19th. We got help on this from vaping. We also have the BEST support system known to man ... OUR FAMILY!!! After two months I am not coughing, I can sing and not gasp for air like before , I do not smell like an ashtray. We have saved money on more then just not buying cigs too.... we are not running errands that sometimes were not even needed or made up just so we could smoke and THAT has saved us on SO much gas!!! Vaping has been an answer to a prayer for with out it Dragon would not have quit. I am even noticing he and I are not vaping as much as we were in the beginning and next time we buy e-juice will be stepping down to 6ml from 12ml. YEAH!!!! If you are looking to quit I HIGHLY recommend Vapor!! LOVE YOUR LUNGS!! ( the pic is for you to see what I am talking about when I say Vaping ) Well that is going to do it for an update for now cause I am tired and I have been multitasking making out the grocery list while writing this so it has taken way longer then it should have. o.O
I have missed you all. Night my freaky darlings!!!
