sunday, not just lazy days

woke up Sunday morning and couldn't wait to sit on the couch all day and watch Glee. 

 put on my slippers, made some coffee, ate a healthy breakfast and relaxed.

shortly after I ate I got a text from my sister in law about going down to my parents for lunch. I got up, got dressed, stuck a full chicken in the oven for dinner, and off we were. 

I spent my day chasing kids and playing with babies. The best part about my Sunday, is that I wouldn't have it any other way!

homemade applesauce

Saturday, after running around all day, I came home and tried my hand in homemade applesauce. It was extremely easy and made our apartment smell delicious. 

I used 5 different apples, 8 total

sliced them (I left the peels on, and it makes the applesauce have a little crunch)

throw them in a crock pot

add a 3 inch cinnamon stick

4 tsp of brown sugar

lemon peel

1 tsp lemon juice

cook low for 5 hours. I used my meat masher to mash. stir every hour. 

of course remove the cinnamon sick when it is finished, lemon peel is ok to keep in.

Donnie & Mikey

--let me just say how amazing my best friend is. I was having a rough week with my grandpa passing and didn't have time to make my costume. So she went ahead,  made my shell for me and bought everything <3 I love her

Last minute my boyfriend decided he wanted to dress up. He chose to dress up as Nurse Kasey(my best friend)!

He put on Kasey's scrubs, name tag, head band, and my glasses. I put on the makeup

Hilarious!
