Tolman Family

Please note: this is our old kitchen, not our new one...and yes, that's the whole thing. So, in my quest to cook more this year I found a great tool that has made my life a lot easier. It's a program called e-Mealz. For just $5 a month you get a weekly menu and grocery list. The menu includes easy to follow recipes. I've only been doing it for a little while now, but Hank absolutely loves it. Not only am I actually getting dinner on the table every night, but there's suddenly variety in what we eat. And so far every meal I've tried has been super easy and done in less than 30 minutes. The grocery lists are great, too. They're organized by aisle so it's easy to get in and out of the store. The idea is to save you time and money by eliminating the stress of staring into the pantry every night at 5:00, trying to figure out what to make. So, I highly recommend this site: www.mealtimemakeover.com . Check it out!

We finally got some professional pictures taken of our little cupcake. This was for 6 month birthday/Easter. (Plus the 3 black and white ones on the side.)

Well, I know it's been a long time coming, but I'm finally updating the blog. Let me tell you, a lot has happened in this past month. We drove a moving van from Monterey, CA to Sierra Vista, AZ. We flew to Connecticut to visit Grandparents, flew to Utah to visit more family. We stayed in Army Lodging for 3 weeks and bought a house. Celebrated Easter, our 2 year Anniversary, and Mother's Day. Well, we're finally getting settled in our new house and I finally have a little time to post some pictures. We bought this jumper to keep Jessica occupied while we painted and unpacked. She sure likes it! We're homeowners! (really this time, for you longtime readers) Our first house!
