PEACE LOVE & CAKE

Once again this will be a terribly long blog, because I choose not to sit down for a few mins every couple of days but rather wait til nap time on a tues or thurs(when I'm not at work) and spend nap time blogging. So here we go....

Dog beds are so comfy...

So there we were hanging out with our friends at Brigg & Becky's house and Taylor just runs around that place like it is her own. Well Taylor snuck away usually she runs and plays in Dominick's room but this time this is where we found her, just relaxing on Whiskey's dog bed!! We couldnt get her off that thing all night long. Silly girl

Taylor loves book time

"whats that dad?" Look @ those cute toes These 2 are silly

The Salmon Disaster

We found these cedar planks at Costco and decided to try them out. We also bought a nice piece of to cook on the planks. School started for Cody so I thought I would be the cute lil house wife and make him dinner when he got home from school oh boy did that become a disaster! You have to soak them inorder for them not to go up into flames on the grill. Well my kitchen sink was not large enough to soak the whole plank by it's self so i thought that if I just turned it often enough that it would be fine. So Cody came home and I started the grill up, well about 10 mins into the grilling process the plank started on fire!!! Needless to say we didnt have "cedar grilled Salmon steak" nope we had all the side dishes that were supposed to accompany the salmon. It was really sad but make for a great story now.

North to Alaska

My mom just got home from a week long fishing trip to Alaska with some family and friends. My mom absolutely loves the outdoors and couldn't have asked for a better vacation. Now Alaska isnt my idea of a dream vacation, I want sun the beach and a nice cold beverage. Not Debbie, she was in heaven with all the wildlife and days full of fishing. She brought home something like 180 pounds of Salmon and Halibut that she had caught in Alaska so we decided to invite 15+ of our close friends and family to a lil fish party at our house. Dont worry I didnt burn any fish this time!! he he. My mom and I started to cook around 5:30pm and ate around 9pm. We made 10 main dishes with Salmon and Halibut cooked different ways along with 4 side dishes. OMG!! There was so much food and so much left over as well. I think almost everyone walked out with an extra plate of food for later!! I dont eat leftovers so I was fine with everyone taking it all away!! Here is a picture of my counter filled with all the food
