Monday Menus

My friend Stacie gave me an idea to post my weekly menus. I make out menus for the week to save time, money and whining by the kids and me. When we all know what we are eating, life seems better somehow. We picked apples, so they are a part of a lot of meals right now. I am working more than usual so a lot of the meals are in the crock pot or made ahead.
Monday-Amy's day
Pigs in a blanket
Mac and cheese
Caesar salad
apples

Tuesday
Tacos with all the fixings (meat made ahead)
salad or shells

Wednesday
Chicken and Rice
Steamed Broccoli
Apples

Thursday
Chili (meat made ahead)
cornbread

Friday
French Dip sandwiches
with au jus
fruits and vegetables

Funnest

"That was my funnest birthday ever, mom". Worth all the work. 6 busy little boys.

7 and 25

7 is the number of wins which are needed by the cubs over the next 2 weeks (starting on October 1st) in order to reach the World Series.

I am 22. Probably asked for fire insurance many times growing up in Community Gospel Church in Bremen Indiana. However a more appropriate life changing volitional choice by God's grace was done during the summer of 1986. So that would make me 22 as well.

I would think those 22 years will help me deal with these next 7 victories.... Atleast I hope so!

Go CUBBIES

22

I am on a little bit of a numbers kick today. Janelle Prenkert was talking on her blog about the date she bacame a believer in Christ. Mine was August 14th 1986. Wow, I am 22. I think I should be more mature than I am. Can't use the excuse that I am a new Christian anymore, not that I have for long time. How old are you?
