Kids Summer Reading Club

Good Morning Friends =)  If you are joining us this summer with our Kids Summer Reading Club, today is the day to link up =)

Last month we chose the Babysitters Club book, Kristy's Great Idea.


Emma absolutely *loved* this book.  She seriously had it read in less than 2 days.  She said she just had a hard time putting it down.  And well that is completely fine with me!

We have a list of questions for the girls to answer. So here are Emma's answers!


1.  Kristy loved to babysit so she thought she would start a club!
2.  It kept a record of who did what and how much money they made. 
3. Kristy's job.  I want to babysit little kids when I get older!
4. The sleepover!  They had a lot of fun, and sleepovers are always fun.
5. I would like to start a dog walking club with my friends.  It would be fun to play with dogs and walk them.
6. When they got to a babysitting job and had to babysit dogs too.  They were not expecting the dogs to be there too and it was a lot of work!

So there you have Emma's answers!  I was hoping she would go into detail a bit more, but oh well! 
 
Our next linkup is going to be on June 20th!.  For this month, the book will be...


Because of Winn-Dixie.  Emma is excited to start this book.  You find it on Amazon by clicking HERE.  And don't forget to link up with us below!!
 
And here are the questions for next months book as well.

hello Monday

Hello!  Happy Monday!  I hope you will join myself and Heather, grab our graphic and link up today with your Monday post.  Anything goes!  

We had a really good weekend, despite having to work.  The weather was absolutely beautiful all weekend, and it's SO nice to be able to spend time outside finally.  Not only did we have a really long winter with lots of snow, our spring up until this point had been really rainy.  So the sunshine is very much welcome!  

Friday I took the day off from work.  We had a really great day.  I dropped Emma off at school and then came back home and Alyx played outside while Brian and I did some yard work. 


She's got the craziest hair!  Mind you, she had just woken up too ;)


I decided to go pick up coffee for Brian and I, and when I got to the drive-thru I looked behind me and saw this...





Sound asleep =)

While Brian mowed our lawn I planted some flowers.  The only ones I got planted are the ones in my old whiskey barrell.


I'm anxious for it to fill in.  Normally I have really only done "green" plants in here, but this year I decided to add some color.  Now I need to mulch all around my flower gardens.

Friday afternoon Emma was a part of the Maine All State Elementary Centennial Choir.  It was a huge honor for her to be asked.  There were approximately 100 kids who were chosen all over the state. 

 



These kids sang absolutely beautiful.  So much talent in this room.  


My parents came down for it, and my mom brought me a TON of fiddleheads =)


They are so delicious.  It's a vegetable that I am pretty sure is only found in Maine and you can only find them for about 2 weeks and then they are gone.  I can't wait to dig into these!

Saturday I had to work.  Emma had a softball game.  She was the opening pitcher.  

 

Every game she does better and better.  I'm proud of her for accomplishments in this sport.  
I'm also sad that I had to miss one of her games.  Definately a downfall of having work every other weekend.  They didn't win their game, but they did well.

Sunday, I have no pictures for.  I worked until 4pm.  I came home and grabbed Emma and brought her to our local Police Department so she could sell them some Candy Bars for her softball fundraiser.  She made out well there!  
The girls played outside until it was time to come in to get ready for bed.  They love being outside!

I hope you all had a great weekend as well.  Wednesday, Myself, Heather and Jenna will be linking up with our Kids Summer Reading Club!  So if you joined us, remember to grab our graphic and link up with us!


 Have a GREAT Monday!!!

Recipe Club {Hamburg Macaroni Soup}

It's Recipe Club day!  I hope you will join myself and Heather and link up today and share a favorite recipe of yours! 

I have a huge love for soup.  Especially homemade soups.  They are just so good.  When I found this recipe several years ago it was a hit and it still is to this day =)


1 medium sized onion
1 box of elbow macaroni
1 large can of whole peeled tomatoes
1 can tomato sauce
2 cups of beef broth
2 tbsp chopped garlic
1 tsp oregeno 
1 lb ground beef
1 1/2 tsp Worcestershire sauce

Start by dicing an onion.  I used a medium size onion





Brown your hamburg and then add your onion.



Add your beef broth




Add all the remaining ingredients.  



Boil one box of elbow macaroni until al dente.





Add the macaroni by spoonfuls to your bowl and then add the beef mixture.  I don't add the macaroni directly to the beef mixture because it swells up and absorbs the liquid.




And that's it!  It's so easy and very tasty!!

Now it's your turn!  Link up with us below =)
Have a great day!
