I was so pumped to get home and show my hubby my great deals!

Homemade Ranch Dressing

One of the blogs I follow had a recent post for homemade Ranch dressing and it seemed so simple I just had to try it. I am a straight Hidden Valley girl, no Ranch dressing lives up to that taste. So I was pretty leery when trying this recipe. I got it all mixed up and ready to eat.....
My plate looked pretty delicious with the fresh bell peppers and carrots to dip in my kitchen made ranch dressing! And you know what, the taste was pretty okay... definitely not to my highest standard, but it's cheaper than the real thing and is better than nothing!

Our Little Gymnast

Selah was invited to a birthday party for this past Saturday and we were all very excited because it was a gymnastics party!!! Selah was adamant about wearing the appropriate attire, so we are thankful for older cousins who pass down their unwearables (is that a word?)...Thanks Micah.
Here are some photos to show how much fun Selah had being a gymnast for a day!






As you can see she had a blast, even Rinnah got in on a little of the fun. Sorry for many of the pictures being blurry, but it was so hard to get her in a moment of motionlessness (again, not sure if that's a real word, but it works)!!!!
