Easiest Christmas Recipe

I wanted to come up with a new easy recipe for Christmas this year. Pinterest helped me find it, with my twist of course.

~CHRISTMAS TURTLES~

Ingredients:
Snyder's Pretzel Snaps
Rolos
Pecans
White melting chocolate

Directions:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees
Lay the pretzels flat on a baking sheet


Place one unwrapped Rolo on each pretzel and place in the oven for 3-5 minutes
Press a pecan onto each slightly melted Rolo.
Then place in the fridge while you melt a small amount of white chocolate.


Then drizzle the white chocolate onto the Turtles. Store in the fridge and make sure to take them out at least 20 minutes before serving.


Forgot to take a picture of the final product so I borrowed this one so you could get the idea.

Enjoy!

Hope everyone had a very happy holiday, and your New Year is filled with lots of love and joy!

Miss my Friend

15 years ago today I lost my best friend. It was an awful thing for my 11 year old self to go through, and a very tough loss for everyone. I miss my friend Ashley to pieces. Every year for the last 14 years I was able to leave a pinwheel for my friend and one for her sister. This year I had to work all day and wasn't able to make to the cemetary. I just wanted to put it out there that I love you Ash, and miss you dearly.

18 Months

Well today marks the beginning of month 18 when it comes to us trying to conceive. (2 years without Birth Control) I realize it isn't all that long, but our dream of being parents seems like an uphill battle at this point. We are trying to stay positive, and understand that God is the only one who knows when the right time will be for us. We've made a plan, and are ready to get started with some new treatment options. We are both working on getting ourselves healthy, and taking things one day at a time. I love having my husband by my side, and spending time with him. We are trying not to dwell on what's missing in our lives, but appreciate all the good things that we have. I'm not saying it's not hard, but just that it doesn't help me to be bitter and jealous.
