New and improved chicken salad

I'm starving. Tim is working late. Peyton hardly eats. I resort to raiding the fridge. Happily, something new is born.
Recipe:
Chicken (I used about 1 1/2 cups of a roasted chicken from Sam's)
celery- chopped
Craisins
Yogurt
Sour cream
dash of salt and pepper

I used a 2/3 mixture of yogurt to sour cream. Just enough to make it moist, probably about 3 Tbs total
It was awesome, and healthy, no mayo!

Party Time!!

The brown cow party

So the week of his actual birthday has passed. Here I am, this week, trying to convince him that it isn't ANOTHER actual birthday and that he will, in fact, not be four.
I went with a milk and cookies-brown-cow-party. Here are a few pictures:











The boy is three!

We spent this past week celebrating our wonderful, hyper, lively, curious, troublemaking, smart, adorable, and adored son. He turned three and I really can't believe it! He has single handedly changed my life and he brings us so much joy.
We started the celebration on his actual birthday, making birthday cupcakes that he got to decorate.

Then on the weekend we had tons of out of town guest (they were actually here for a church conference, but as far as he was concerned they were there for HIM). We did squeeze in a playdate though.


Then, after the guest headed home, we took Peyton and his BFF cousin to our local organic farm. Peyton is obsessed with all things farm culture so that was a definite win.
Then the big birthday party this week. Peyton's Gram and Poppy from va were there along with his aunt, uncle and cousin from new jersey. The brown cow party was a hit!
More pictures to follow of the actual party, I just couldn't resist sharing the pictures of the week leading up to the actual party!
