MY ATTEMPT AT FOOD BLOGGING!!

Posted by PicasaSo with all the food blog craze these days, I've always had an itch to put some of my own creations up for all to see. Instead of dedicating my life to constent food blogging, I thought I would throw some up every once in a while just to show my talent and love for delicious food!

So here it goes!!
Today I made greek turkey burgers with grilled vegetables. The main reason was that it was hot out and didn't want to heat up the kitchen and the other is that I went to the market and bought these lovely fresh veggies!

Turkey burgers
1 pkg  ground turkey
feta
red peppers
fresh spinach
red onion
salt and pepper
1 egg
1/2 cup bread crumbs
garlic salt
I say put as much of the feta, spinach and red onion in as you want! No rules!!
One rule: oil your grill, they will stick!!

Grilled veggies
baby bok choy
yams
zucchini
red pepper
mushrooms
asparagus
I just tossed them lightly with olive oil, balsamic vinegar, salt and pepper.

BOWLING!!!

Can you believe that we have never been bowling as a family?!! It was time!!

Here is the pro herself!!



Twinkle toes Mackenzie!!!

We had to celebrate again on her "real" birthday!!





After eating three mini cupcakes kenzie said "take these cupcakes away from me, these things are heavenly"!









What we love most about our Sydney:
Her infectious smile
Her blue blue eyes
Her hugs and kisses
Her long restful nights (mommy and daddy love that!)
Her love for music
Her super loud voice
Her furrowed brow

GRANDMA'S VISIT!!

We were so lucky to have grandma come and stay with us for a week! She always brings such joy when she is around and the girls just adore her. She was also here during our BIG and exciting purchase and was a huge help during the process. We also celebrated Sydney's 1st birthday early because grandma, auntie Chris and Shan could be here with us!!

Got to love a fun trip to Ikea!!!
