This week. . .

Afternoon Craft

This afternoon at preschool, Tanner and I made Halloween crafts.  This is what I made.  I found the idea on my friend, Telisa's blog!

Around the Kitchen

Love my good old crock pot.  It has cooked many meals! 

 Love my steamer.  Today I cooked sweet potatoes and added broccoli for the last 15 minutes.  I love that I can leave it alone and let it do it's job while I help with homework.  I do most of my meal preparation in the afternoon before the kids get home.  It is great to clean sweet potatoes or potatoes and have them in the steamer so that I just have to turn it on about 1 hour before dinner.  

 On the side of the fridge we have or list of chores and our menu for the week.  

 Our current chore chart.  We rotate the wheel every Monday night at Family Home Evening.  

 I am a big fan of Greek Yogurt.  I like the plain yogurt.  It has 22 grams of protein, only 9 sugars, and 0 fat!  My family thinks it takes like sour cream, they don't care for it.  I like to eat it mixed with fruit.  I also use it in place of sour cream.  

 I also like hummus.  My favorite flavor is the pine nut flavor.  

 Our pantry is clean and organized!

 Love this walk in pantry.  It curves around the corner so I can't get the whole thing in the picture.  Our old house seriously lacked storage, so this is a dream!  

 I love that food storage buckets fit on the bottom.  

Re-motivated

Last night I went to a wonderful Relief Society meeting about meal planning.  I love meeting together with other women and hearing their ideas.  Here is my plan for the week:

The Latest Project

I am decorating a cute room for a cute girl. Here is a sneak peak.  

I made the pillow sham yesterday afternoon while Justin took some of the kids to Walmart.
