July 4th

Mikel and I went to see fireworks on the 3rd.

They had a Beatles cover band playing called The Return. They did pretty well and were fun to listen too.

Easter...

I wasn't going to post any Easter pictures because Easter was so long ago, but I had these pictures saved as a draft from May. I must of started to post them and then stopped. So, I'll just post them real quick anyway.


Mikel's Easter basket.



Here he is eating his edible grass, as the package states, it's "grass-tastic."


Halle made an egg just for me! How awesome!

St. Patrick's day and a slug...

This is Summits Tavern in Cumming, GA. Every St. Patrick's day they have a special meal for $2.09.



The meal consists of mashed potatoes, corned beef, and cabbage. We both got the meal and a root beer. We ate outside on the balcony, we thought it'd be neat because it was beautiful outside but there were some smokers that messed it up. The food was good though!


Mikel enjoying some Irish favorites.

A slug we found outside our apartment!

Cooking

I've been trying to cook/bake new stuff lately, there's been some successes, some failures and some in betweens.

I made this apple crumb cheesecake for Mikel's birthday. My first time making a cheesecake.

Here's some pulled pork and corm nuggets. Pork was great, corn nuggets look better than they were.

My first homemade bread. It's braided bread!

I made some blueberry cinnamon whipped cream mini cakes. A little bit messier looking then they should be, but still not too bad.

Fishing

Me and pops went fishing, we had to take a picture of us with our poles because we didn't catch any fish...

Amy and the girls were at mom and pops.

Snow Day

Snow day, one week ago!

Mikel and I built a snow man!

I made a snow angel.

We were quite cold by the time we came in.

And our snow man survived the next day!

Valentine's Day

Mikel got me flowers and these neat little chocolate cups with cream and chocolate spoons with a chocolate covered strawberries on top.

I made chocolate suckers for Mikel!
