Thankfulness Day 1


After almost 1 year of my husband being unemployed and our living situation being with my parents, I've seen myself lose heart often. I know I have so much in life to be thankful for so I'm going to commit to be thankful for something each day and TODAY is DAY 1!

Today I am thankful for mildly cool California winters.

Thrifty Thursday!



I LOVE Hurley and I LOVE deals! I haven't paid full price for a Hurley thing yet! If you want to get Hurley shirts for your boys for around $7-$14 (and today I fell in love with a sweatshirt for $20) then check out Marshalls, Ross, and TJ Maxx! Seriously the name brands are there and you can find so much stuff! And if you like Hurley you'll LOVE Eli's Lids, the hat Kai is wearing. Check them out!

Nash's Birthday!

A whole day at Disney and Nash got to do whatever he wanted!

Pumpkin Cookies



A-MAZ-ING! Your fall is not complete until you make these cookies! They are super moist and are a great alternative when you aren't in the mood for chocolate! (As if)

Ingredients:
1 cup white sugar
1 egg
1 cup shortening
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 cups all purpose flour
1 teaspoon each baking soda, baking powder, salt
2 teaspoons cinnamon
1 cup canned pumpkin
white cookie icing (I used powdered sugar with milk but I think a cream cheese icing would be even better!)

Instructions:
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F
2. In a large bowl, mix sugar, egg, shortening, and vanilla
3. Sift together flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon. Stir into the creamed mixture, then stir in pumpkin
4. Spoon dough onto greased cookie sheet
5. Bake for 12 minutes, then cool
6. Drizzle icing on top of cookies
