A nice Good Friday

So what a nice day today! Hubby let me sleep in and took O out for a while.. When I woke up I had them come back and we decided to go do something as a family... So we went for a hike on a bike trail, while doing some geo-caching... O loves going and it was definitely a family day... Greg got some pictures and I just enjoyed my family... On our way home we were discussing supper and Greg mentioned a new recipe I tried the other day saying that he wouldn't mind it again tonight... So we stopped for a can of refrigerated biscuits... we had to alter the recipe slightly as it was a little too sweet the first time but boy was it good!

So here is my 25 min?meal (as soon as I'm on my computer I'll link to the place I originally got this) Keep in mind I did not make this meal up, I just followed the recipe!
A can of refrigerated biscuits
1 pound ground beef
1/2 cup barbecue sauce
Shredded Cheddar Cheese

Preheat oven to 375°. Brown ground beef. Spray a muffin tin with non-stick spray and place a biscuit in each space, pressing into a cup shape (I only had 8 biscuits so I left 4 spaces empty). Mix barbecue sauce into browned beef. (Because I had original Sweet Baby Ray's and not the Sweet and Spicy that I highly recommend, I added some chili powder to give it a savory and spicy kick). Spoon beef into cups. Bake for 10 minutes. Remove and add cheese on top, finish baking for another 3-5 minutes. (I put the steam-able broccoli into the microwave at this time, when the microwave dings supper is done!)

Now it is off to bed as we have 2 Easter Egg Hunts tomorrow, the Easter Service Sunday followed by 2 Easter Dinners...
So thankful the He died for my sins and that He rose again!!

Our fun "pinking" (painting)

O wanted 2 "pink" Mickey Mouse (aka paint Minnie Mouse)...

and when he was done with Minnie, he "pinked" Lightning McQueen!

So I decided 2 work on an Eagle paint-by-number... This is how far I got when I worked 20 minutes longer than O

On our walk/ caching adventure

It was such a beautiful day today, so Aunt and I took O out on the bike trail to blow off some cabin fever steam (and of course get some caches on the way)... This nice little rest took our fancy, and O just loved the stone :) Wish I could have gotten the picture that Aunt got of O sitting on the bench! (I'll try to get it from her later)

Praise the Lord!

So I have to share this story!
Saturday, we decided to head to one of our big cities (about 90 mins away) to do some geocaching and take pictures... We found a series that was dediated to churches and thought it would be fun, called my aunt that got us into caching and we decided we would go in her car... She will drive but if someone else is willing she will gladly let them! I was going to, but the very light flurries was making everything look wavy with my disease, so we decided Greg would drive... We got on the road and was about half way when a car went to pass us on the freeway, we were doing the speed limit and he was doing maybe 5 or so over... He lost control and did a 360 in front of us, hit the guardrail then continued to bounce off the guardrail while doing another 180! after the first spin his tire came bouncing across the road in front of us and went over the rail down into the embankment... Greg was able to use his SMITH training and somehow (I can only guess that it was God) kept us from hitting the guy... We also expected the guy to go over the rail and he didn’t! In fact he had no injuries at all! We stayed there because he was facing the wrong way in a travel lane (it was the shoulder being used for travel because of the construction) and the guys lights weren’t working... So we had our hazards on and Greg kept “pumping the brakes” to show approaching vehicles to get out of the lane... There were several times that we were worried we would be hit, we can only imagine how much worse it would have been if we hadn’t been there to warn other drivers! PRAISE THE LORD for keeping all of us safe!!
