Popeye Eggs


Last week we got to have our friends Jeremi and Natalie visit us along with their sweet baby Hallie (in the middle). We had such a great time catching up. Lots of fun on the beach and relaxing/eating at home. We enjoyed Popeye Eggs for breakfast one morning (a family favorite from both Brig's house and my house growing up). Natalie requested the recipe so here it is...sorry it is so late!

Popeye Eggs:

6 Eggs
1 tsp. vanilla
1 cup milk
1/2 tsp. salt
1 cup flour
1/2 cube butter
1/2 cup sugar

Melt butter in an 11x13 inch pan in the oven at 350 degrees. Put the eggs in the blender and blend until bubbly. Add milk, flour, sugar, vanilla, and salt and blend. Remove the melted butter from oven and pour egg mixture in pan on top of butter. Bake in the oven at 400 degrees for 15 minutes.

Sprinkle with powdered sugar. We had cut up strawberries on top as well. Delish.




Sleeping Beauty Underwear



Jane (today as I am helping her put on her sleeping beauty underwear): I should wear these when I go to Disneyland and then hold Sleeping Beauty's hand.

QT




This weekend we took a QT (that's Quick Trip for all you people who are not from Arizona) to AZ for my nephew Caleb's baby blessing. We drove out Saturday morning and came back Sunday afternoon. A little bit crazy, I know. We were able to squeeze in some shooting in the desert, pony rides, RS broadcast, a birthday party for Stacy, and of course the baby blessing. A whirlwind of a weekend, maybe we will plan to stay a little bit longer next time....

We Heart Laguna Beach






Well, we did it again. No surprise, but we uprooted our family (for the 7th time???) and are now living in Laguna Beach, CA. We are actually right in between Aliso Viejo and Laguna Beach....but our address says Laguna Beach, so I guess we can claim it! We love it here. Brig got a new job, and life is great. We miss our friends in Colorado (so sad....) but are looking forward to our new life here. How can you not love the beach right?? I am a water girl, so I am in heaven here. I can't wait to take surf lessons, and become a beach bum.....I wish.
