Just a Swingin'

Howdy Folks! Another week down..my this year sure is flying by fast! Let's see, Friday night Matt and I went and saw this..

A word to the wise..DO NOT go see this! Oh my goodness..I was NOT prepared for this movie! It is by far one of the most graphic movie's I've ever seen in my life! It wasn't a "scary" movie I'd say, just a suspenseful one..but wow! There were moments that left me completely speechless..again, W-O-W!!

Saturday, Matt and I headed back over to Mikki & Clay's, where MeeMaw and PawPaw met us this time. We so enjoyed a wonderful day/evening of food, fun, and games. Clay cooked out hamburgers, and I made my guacamole and a vege tray..yum yum good! We enjoyed getting to get outside and watch Clara on her new swing..

We also had a little rematch in the guys vs. girls, game of..

However, this time around, the boys won..I think it was totally rigged though..I mean, how am I gonna answer, "The Nutty Professor" and them say NO, b/c it was, "The Nutty Professor II!!" Rigged!! ;) After our game concluded, Matt and I headed home.

Sunday was another lazy one for us..not quite sure why we didn't do anything that day..that night however, I made homemade this..

Lasagna!! It was O-so yummy!! Until recently Matt and I have spent the most of our time together eating out. Sure I'll occasionally make spaghetti, roast, or we'll grill out..but we usually almost ALWAYS ate out. So, we've tried to change that and save a little money..However, I honestly don't think it's saving us THAT much money!! By the time I go to the grocery store, buy things for the week, come home, cook, then clean..I think ugh..what's the use..we could've ran out, gotten a bite to eat, and been home without any of this hard work!! So..needless to say, I'm not sold on the idea quite yet! ;) Here's a dish I made last week as well..

King Ranch Chicken..one of my favorites!! Can you tell I'm really in to casserole's??!! Matt..not so much! ..and for dessert..

cupcakes!! I was in the midst of baking these, when Matt told me, he wasn't really a fan of cupcakes unless they were super moist..so I looked around the kitchen to see what I could "add" to them to make them moist, and alas, I came up with cake icing and whipped cream (I know) but..they were FANTASTIC!! Super moist!! Don't worry..I only had a few, I took most of them to work with me the next day to get rid of..

No post would be complete, without an American Idol wrap-up. With 2 down..

and 1 to go tonight.. I thought last night's "country-themed," was sooo good!! Didn't yall??!! However, I questioned whether there are any girls in the competition this year.. Danny brought me to tears, Anoop touched my heart, thank goodness Anoop Dogg is back, and my beloved Matt didn't let me down!!..but then, there was this..

Johnny Cash meets Marilyn Manson..what the bloody hell was that??!! Matt and I even had to rewind Adam last night for a double take!! So dark and so morbid, yet so genius! Kara said something like she felt dirty and strange, but she liked it..I felt the same way. Boy can hit notes I've never heard of..and it's flawless.. craziness!!

Have a great rest of the week..should be beautiful!!

Until Next Time..
