***Slow Cooker Chicken and Dumplings***

Ingredients

2 Tablespoons Butter
4 boneless, skinless chicken breast (or 6 skinless chicken thighs)

flour

Directions

1. Place the chicken, butter, soup, and onion in a greased slow cooker, and fill with enough water to cover.

2. Secure lid and cook for 5 to 6 hours on High. About 30 minutes before serving, roll each torn biscuit piece in flour (to prevent them from sticking

********This was a lot of food for two people, so next time i will cut the recipe in half! Overall WE LOVED IT, tevis had seconds and i had it for dinner next day. I will make it again! ******

I DID IT! Weekend Wrap Up!

Why hello Monday, How are you? I am ok seeing you this week, because I HAVE A WEEK BREAK FROM SCHOOL, WAHOOO!

I had a great weekend, so let me tell you ALL ABOUT IT!

Friday was going to be a busy day. Started with my having to drive all the way downtown Indy to the Indianapolis fairgrounds to pick up Erica, Jose and I's race stuff.

I was excited to get my BIB, it felt more official! And we got cool sun glasses, a tattoo, and a T-shirt, which is sadly too small..so something to work forward to be able to fit into it! So driving to the fairgrounds meant driving through downtown, i don't drive much, make Tevis do it he knows his way around usually. Well his eyes aren't the greatest so i asked him to at least go with me so i wouldn't freak out or die, haha. Erica owes me!!!

After we made our trip downtown Indy, Miss Storm had another vet appointment, she is expensive lol. She got another puppy shot, her rabies shot and her nails clipped! She did great of course. She is 30 lbs, she went from 18 to 30 in just three weeks! Our vet thinks she could be a mix of either lab+saint bernard OR lab+newfoundland Either way right now she guesses Storm will be a good 100lbs. She said next visit she will be able to tell even more. We could do a DNA test for like $50 but would only eliminate breeds and not exactly tell us. On another good note, her and Delaney had a better weekend together, besides a little incident last night, but as she gets older and her training classes it will all get better in time. 

After Storms Vet appointment, we waited til it was time to go pick up Delaney for the weekend. We ate at Skyline Chili Friday night and we just love our time with her! Friday night meant, MY BEST FRIEND WAS going to be on her way to my house to stay the night! Erica and her husband showed up before 10pm. I showed her my house :) and we just hung out talked and watched the end of Breaking Dawn part 1. 

SATURDAY! LET's Get RAD!

Erica and Jose still at the car! ALL CLEAN! 

Erica and I all clean, getting AMP'ed 

We woke up bright an early, i was up at 630am and we were out the door around 715amish to stop by the gas station to get some energy drinks haha. I was much better driving downtown to the fairgrounds and way less traffic! We got there at 8am, used restrooms and slowly made our way to the starting spot. 

I wasn't as nervous as I thought i was going to be. Once we got to the starting spot and we were getting hit by color and they were letting wave by wave of people go. I was getting more excited, couldn't believe i was actually doing this. Our wave of people started at like 9:07 and we ran/walked the 5K ColorMeRad in oh about minutes. I DID NOT TRAIN for this run, i ran for a week couple months ago, then we moved and life got busy and exercise was not in my everyday plans. I did a lot better running then i thought and ran more then i thought i would, Erica and I stayed together i sometimes a few steps ahead, i am a fast walker. I had the adrenaline rush and i felt good the whole time. So it has given me the motivation that I can do more of these if i train and run more. 

Almost done with the 5K had to take a silly picture

haha FAKER!!!! ;) 

So we of course walked and ran, we would catch our breathe and say lets run to and make a goal and run and sometimes we would both keep going. There was three different down and up hills i ran all those, i felt like it would be an accomplishment if i did. There was alternating Color bomb stations and colored water stations. and I could finally see the bridge at the fairgrounds which meant we were SO CLOSE. i was so excited! WE DID IT!!!!!!!!!!!!! 

Jose finished i think 10-20 minutes before us, HE ROCKS! 

This was at home before i was about to jump in the shower and get ready for our celebration lunch at AppleBees! thumbs up for I DID IT!!!!!!!! So proud of myself! 

I ended Saturday with a nice pedicure with Delaney, HER IDEA!

I got a great foot and leg massage, so it was exactly what i needed. 

SUNDAY!

Sundays are for FOOTBALL. Tevis hates it when football season is over. We got to go to our first game of the season today. and they lost BOOO :( but i had a great time with Tevis anyhow! 

So as you can tell I had an awesome weekend! Its sunday night, i am scheduling some posts and enjoying a relaxing night with Tevis and Miss Storm watching Sunday Night Football! I Hope everyone had a great weekend! Thanks in advance for all the support and kind words! 

Update On House!

Happy Thursday! I hope everyone has had a great week! I am officially on break from school until Sept. 23rd. I am so read and excited for the next week and half! Next weekend Tevis, Storm and I are going to my parents house because my Nana, Papa, aunt and uncle are coming to meet my niece! Its going to be a short but awesome weekend and tons of pictures I hope! So stay tuned!

Also, I will be doing a review and giveaway soon just a heads up :) Its something you wear! ;)

So There isnt much BIG projects going on in the house anymore, things are slowly calming down! I will have a post sometime solely on our bedroom because its not 100% done yet. I just wanted to show ya some decor i recently got, its nice not seeing naked walls anymore. Its hard to know what my style is. Tevis doesn't care what i get or do, but as long as he likes it i am happy and he has loved everything i have done so far. Pictures don't do justice but just imagine you were here :)

I am no where near done decorating the house. But who ever is? I already want to change Delaney's bathroom, haha. I will continue to show off my house! :) Lots more to do but plent of time to do it in :) My bedroom so far is my favorite!

We need to get our gate fixed, Storm got out last weekend it was terrible situation, and we also want to put a roof over the deck we don't have much shade in the backyard, and it gets the most sun for sure.

Our spare bedroom is the only place that has not been touched, i am waiting to see if it'll ever be turned into a nursery or just keep it as a spare bedroom and put up a lot of tevis' sports stuff.
Time will tell that!

Life is going pretty good my way, i cannot complain! I am getting more sleep, storm is overall doing great. She started classes monday, we are practicing "SIT" and "DOWN" i hope we can control this biting and her jumping. I always want to work on "COME" and "STAY" I am anxious to take her to my parents house but I WANT TO SEE my niece and family so hope its not too much of a headache for us! WISH us luck!

XOXO

Congrats Shannon. She has a new design going on and I am loving it! This week Erin is from Homemade Happenings is guest posting for Shannon. 
Before i get started, i want to share some cuteness! IF YOU FOLLOW ME on IG then you always see my cute puppy often! This was this past Saturday! 

SO WHAT IF.....

• I have not posted yet this week until today, school exams, sleep and storm were more important. 
• i got up with storm early then we fell back asleep til almost 11:30, that girl wares me out. 
• online shopping is an addiction of mine. so convenient :) 
• if i got up today, showered, and got back into pjs, clean ones of course! :) 
• i am over the summer heat, ready for sweatshirt weather
• i never truly trained for this 5K i have on Saturday, i am still proud I am gonna do it and with my best friend. 
• i have next week off school and i have things planned to do and i already know they may NOT get done, haha
• i told you all a while ago i was getting my blog design re-done, don't worry it will be soon enough. 
• i spend lots of time on FB, IG, Twitter etc etc. I am a social media junky and i like to keep updated on my friends, family and blog friends life. & i love posting about my life so everyone knows. I think social networking is amazing. 
• my DVR is always full and about to be again :) fall means NEW shows and shows coming back on

• I have been with Tevis almost three years and there's no engagement ring on my finger...YES I WANT IT. but when he is ready he will ask and i know he will! I wish people would stop asking. 

Okay that's it :)
