Home Made Rolls

K so this does not happen often. But I am so stinkin proud of myself this was TOTALLY worth a blog!!!! I will post more tomorrow about what we have been up to in November but for now this is what you get!!!

I MADE MY FIRST BATCH OF HOME MADE ROLLS!!!!! Man o man. This is the first year that me and Jason will be cooking our Thanksgiving dinner. The first and second year he was deployed and the third year we spent it with my Family in Arizona. So this is our 4th and here we are in Alaska finding ourselves cooking our first Tday dinner! I am kinda excited. We went shopping today to get all the stuff and I decided that I would make a batch of rolls today just in case they dont turn out. Not that I was doubting myself, but rolls are important at Thanksgiving dinner. So of course I took pics!!!!

Here is the mix before it rose.

Getting ready to make it in circles for rolls.
I realized that I dont have a rolling pin or a round cookie cutters. Guess its a good thing I had glasses to use!! Madi loves helping in the kitchen. I cut the circles and she folded them and put them in the pan...

Then added the butter

She watched these rolls in the oven

SO happy to be in the kitchen!

And here they are!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

What we have been up to in October!!

Jason and I have started date nights every weekend. Its been nice to get out and do things together. Before a few weeks ago it had been WAAAAY too long since we had an actual date....

We made our pizzas. Madi has so much fun in the kitchen always!

I cannot remember a Halloween without having orange pumpkin shaped pancakes for breakfast! So tradition rolls on in this home!

I think this is why she likes to help in the kitchen! Makin cupcakes!

Madi being Madi. She loves this table we bought her. We have too much living room furniture that we dont have room for a table so we bought madi one instead!

Halloween! She is such a cute witch. I can say that Im the mom!!! She LOVES dressing up so halloween is a big friend of hers!

Yes she is a poser. On her own.

She is so silly. She cracks herself up which cracks me up!

I got real dressed up!!

We took her to a carnival they had on the Air Force Base here. She loved it.

Dont ask me what she is doing. I have no idea. She is playing! haha

She is such the lil artist when it comes to decorating. She did this on her own. I put the stuff down went and cooked in the kitchen and she said mom come look!
