Date night with Hubby

My husband I don't get out together as much as we should or would like.  This night we had a dance and a fireside put on by our church for couples  that we were attending . It was just nice to get all dressed up and be reminded on how important our relationship is to each other. We got to dance again  to our song played at our wedding 12 years ago! Which was "I knew I loved you" by Savage Garden. Such a great moment as we were reminiscing about some of the meaningful moments we had during the time we were dating and fell in love with each other.12 years later I can still say I  really did get my prince charming and my happily ever after! Sorry for the cheeziness but seriously God knew what I needed and sent me better than I deserve and I am so thankful for him and the husband and father he is! This weekend we get to spend a night away from the kids to celebrate our 12 years of marriage. I can't wait!

A very "Nutritious and Delicious" breakfast


 I have eaten really well this week with these yummy healthy foods. Get the recipe and try them out too.

                               Nachos with a Twist
The green thing smoothie-a stylish little lady      Versatile marinated vegetables-permanent posies 

                               
Mashed faux-tatoes- two twenty-one                            French toast kabob-crumbs and chaos






          Fruit,veggies and egg whites for breakfast
         
               Pin It

This breakfast I promise is super delicious, low calorie, low fat high protien and nutrient packed! This is how you get the most out of your breakfast right here! I will admit that I probably eat this for breakfast at least twice a week. I love it that much! Its amazing how simple seasonings like salt, pepper and olive oil can make up such great taste.







I always keep bags of frozen broccoli and cauliflower on hand.Its easier than buying fresh and I don't have to worry about it going bad on me. I then add my two cups of mixed cauliflower and broccoli in a bowl with water and cook it in the microwave for 3 min.While that is cooking I sautee my onion and mushrooms in a pan with a tsp of olive oil. Then I drain my veggies and add them with the mushrooms and onions. I add salt and pepper for taste mix it all up and serve.



I then spray the pan with cooking spray and I always make my omelet second because I like to have the remains of the veggie mixture added to my egg for extra  flavor then I add a little salt to it for additional flavor and serve.


                                                           Ingrediants


                                                        1 cup of broccoli

                                                       1/4 cup of chopped mushrooms
                                                       1/4 cup of onions

Little black dress

I've had this dress for a few years now and I don't think I will ever get tired of it! To me its just one of those classic pieces in your wardrobe that you just hold on to. Its super feminine and I really love the lace trim at bottom of the dress. Just makes me happy when I wear it and it always reminds me of spring, my favorite time of the year.

Pink sweater-Khols
Shoes-Discount shoe factory
Feather earrings-Styles for less
Bracelets-Ever
