What a crazy weekend. Saturday was ridiculously busy, got up early and went shopping for my party and then prepped a bunch of food and made jello shots. Reupholstered the dinning room chairs cause they were cream when I bought them and were covered in fingerprints, footprints and every other kind of mess boys make. Now they are black corduroy and easy to clean! Then Croix had a baseball game at 2:45 which lasted two hours. Afterwards we rushed him home to change and drove out to Overton where my uncle Woody butchered his piggy"Chorizo" we ate some yummy food and had a blast with my family. Including Mando who had a little much to drink and started giving lap dances, he's like 55 or something!!! We managed to get home around 12:30 in the morning. The boy woke me up way to early at 8 and I spent all day cooking and cleaning getting ready for the party.

The party was so much fun got to see a lot of old friends that I hadn't seen in years including, Nena, Adriana and Yivi! Jaide throws the best "Slumber Parties!" Everyone had so much fun we asked her to drive backdown from Utah in May to throw another one.

Monday I drove all the kids out to Boulder City so the boys could have a slumber party at Vic's , it is so pretty up there I didn't want to leave the balcony and go get Shawn from work. But I did and he took me to dinner and we played Jackpot Party( my fav penny machine) half the night and I quadrupled my money!!!

Yesturday I had my two boys, Messy's two girls, the three other kids I watch 3 times a week and then Vic's four kids!! Talk anout a crazy day! Today luckily I only have seven kids, maybe I will just lock them all outside for the day:) Just kidding!!!!! Kind of.

Tonight is ladies only party at my house!! Woo hoo can't wait to see all the girls. On the menu nacho pin wheels, cheese stuffed biscuits and some yummy finger sandwiches, jello shots and tequila sunrise!

Nacho pin wheels are easy
a package of Pillsbury crescent rolls
a jar of tostitos queso

When you open the package of rolls divide the dough into the four rectangles and use your fingers to close the perforations. Spread with queso, roll into log, cut one inch rolls. Bake as directed!

Cheese stuffed biscuits
a package of Pillsbury buttermilk biscuits
your choice of cheese cubed

Open the package and separate each biscuit into three sections
place a cube of cheese in the center of each biscuit, close it up and bake as directed

Woo Hoo just found out Shawn got his raise!!! Looks like we will be doing some celebrating this weekend. Somewhere between work today, baseball practice in the morning,Woody cookin his piggy Chorizo tomorrow night and my party Sunday night. Busy busy weekend!!!! OOOH maybe now I can buy the purple suede Steve Madden shoes I have been eying at DSW!

Pulled Pork Quesadillas

I made the yummiest lunch today, I stole the idea(sort of) from Bobby Flay. We ate at his restaurant in Caesar's Palace, Mesa Grill for our Anniversary. Our appetizer was smoked chicken and black bean quesadilla. It was the best food I have ever eaten , the sauce was AMAZING!! I wanted to lick my plate, but I didn't :)


1lb pork roast
dry rub with:
onion powder
garlic powder
chili powder(I prefer new mexican chili)
chipotle chili powder(spicy!!)
salt
pepper

put it in the slow cooker for about 4 hours or until it "pulls apart"

pick your favorite kind of tortilla(I use corn)

Pick your cheese(gouda and smoked cheddar)

Build your quesadilla and enjoy!!

First of all someone hacked and deleted my blog, how rude!!! Luckily I am half way smart and figured out how to undelete it!!

I am so excited for Croix's first baseball game on Saturday! He did great at tryouts and is on the Cincinnati Reds. Wish it was a cooler team but oh well. We just ordered our family the jerseys with his name and number on it, I love baseball!!! He tells me one day he will be a pro and buy me a huge house with a slide in it!

Chaiz loves going to practice and runs around chasing the girls the whole time! He can't wait till next season so he can play. He asks everyday if he can go to school with his brother, he wishes he can just be five already.

Shawn is still workin his butt off at Big 5 and lovin it, he is waiting to hear about a raise this week. Keep your fingers crossed!!! He is more excited then the rest of us for baseball to start, he wishes he could play!!
We are counting down the days till our big trip to see Sasha(43 days) This will be our first trip anywhere with out our boys and we will be gone a week!! We are starting to feel the camping itch, we love it!! If you can't find me at home BBQ'in on the weekends then I will be at the lake!!
