Happy Halloween from the Mills!

recipe

This is Paula Deen's Slow cooker Apricot glazed pork tenderloin.

I have been using my crock pot about twice a week. I don't think I will like apricots but I will try this and see :)


Here is the recipe

The girls schools pictures 2011

Just another Thursday in Leesville,LA

I took the kids to the Exchange to return something this morning. They were good so we had a ride on the rides out front. Then we were off to speech therapy for Anna Grace (She is tongue tied and getting it clipped next month)

Then we were off to the parade. There were so many horses! You know you live in a small town in the south when most of the floats were beauty queens! I thought I was on the show Toddlers and Tiaras! Who has ever heard of Miss Forestry? 

Mary Reilly didn't have a good dance day

Mary Reilly really didn't want to be at dance today.

My parents always taught me not to give up and stick with something. I wasn't going to let her not go. We signed up for dance.We will continue until the season is over.

If she doesn't want to continue it then that's ok. I really think she was just tired. I hope next week we will be a very happy dancer :)  Sorry for the poor video quality.

Rodeo is coming to town!

 Anna Grace not wanting to have her picture taken

 Still goofing off

 The promise of candy helps :)

 Both girls goofing off again

 This was the only picture I could get with both of them looking at me

 

The rodeo and fair is coming to town. This apparently is a BIG deal since kids don't have to go to school on the first day of the fair. This means my kids don't go to school tomorrow. I dressed Anna Grace in her cowgirl "getup" to celebrate. I think we will be attending the rodeo tomorrow night so I will take some pictures. 

Anna Grace enjoying a cupcake from school. We had school pictures today. I was told they turned out great. I will post them when I see the proofs!
