DIY homemade butter and maple butter from scratch

AI LOVE butter. My mom loves butter and my sister loves butter. So I decided I would try to make some.  It was extremely easy and quick. There is a restaurant in disney (the garden grill) that has the best butter in the world, that was my inspiration for the maple butter. 

All you need is

A blender, mixer, or food processor

Heavy whipping cream 

And what ever favors you want in the butter

For the Malle butter I used some syrup and a little bit of sugar.and I also made some regular butter with just salt.

 All you do is mix the ingredients in the blender until its the consistency you want. Strain any excess liquid and viola! You have butter!!

Then put it on some bread and enjoy!!

Celebrate your family love your life and treasure every moment. 

 

It was an Alfred Hitchcock kinda day

I love Sundays! Going to church, worshiping God, and spending time with my baby. Here's just a little preview of what out day was like. 

We had a very fun day today. As you can see Edye was worn out!!

Now to get to the Alfred Hitchcock part, if you have seen the movie birds you will get it. so as I am holding Edye and making us some lunch today I hear a tap tap tap coming from the skylight in our kitchen. At first I thought it was raining but then thought to myself out loud no those would be some pretty big rain drops to make that noise. So, I decided to look........ And what met me there but two VERY big crows! 

They were just pecking at the glass and just looking down at me. Edye and I just stood there and watched them for about a minute before they flew away. Now, I'm not gonna lie, this made me a little nervous if not slightly scared. Then it got me thinking. How many times in life do we hear that tap... Tap... Tap... Coming from God. Whether its because your doing something you know is wrong, he has a task for you to do, or he just wants you to open your heart to him. He is here, he is tapping on our windows, on our doors, on our hearts. He Loves us he wants us to let him into our lives. Let's answer those taps before they become knocks or pounds. Lets let God in our lives (but let's leave the crows outside) and let his plan unfold!  

The steps of a man are established by The Lord, when he delights in his way.   - Psalm 37:23

Lilo and Stitch movie night

Our first disney movie night was a success!!! This was our menu! We had shrimps noodles edamame and pineapple pound cake and cherry skewers! Our movie was Lilo and stitch. 

After dinner we put the movie in at first the kids were excited sitting in the chair watching. 

Then about  5 minutes into the movie they were bored sooooo we did the limbo!!! 

Katie and I tried a couple times and lets just say I will be pretty sore tomorrow .

Next it was time to color a picture 

I love spending time with my family. They all bring joy to my life. 

Edye Gizzmo and I ended our crazy fun filled day on a nice stroll.
