HOUSE OF MANY COLORS

School colors, that is. We support many different colleges in this house. Hubby graduated from Mississippi State University, but is an Oklahoma State University fan. Tracy graduated from Oklahoma State and is definitely an Oklahoma State fan. Michelle and Tad graduated from Kansas Newman in Wichita, but they are Mizzou fans, because his parents and brother and sister graduated from Mizzou. Kim attended University of Central Oklahoma, but is an Oklahoma Sate fan also. Jamie graduated from the University of Georgia.

YOU KNOW YOU'RE IN OKLAHOMA WHEN

. . . . . . . . . . . . .you see a man on horseback going through the drive-thru at McDonald's. This was at the McDonald's in the city we live in. Wonder if he ordered anything for the horse?

WORDLESS WEDNESDAY

ROAST

Tracy came over and ate dinner with us tonight. I cooked a roast with lots of potatoes and carrots. Yes, there is a roast under all those potatoes and carrots. It was really good, even if I did cook it. I had not cooked a roast in a long time. I can't even remember the last time I cooked one. Tracy made a fruit salad and brought it. I had read about this fruit salad on another blog and they said it was really good and they were right. I am posting the recipe at the bottom.

Frozen Fruit Salad

1 – 8 ounce bar cream cheese
¾ cup sugar
1 – 10 ounce box frozen strawberries (1/2 pint)
1 small can drained crushed pineapple
½ cup nuts
2 diced bananas
1 large tub cool whip

Combine cream cheese and sugar together in mixing bowl, then add the remaining ingredients. Mix well and pour into a 9 x 13 pan and freeze for several hours. Let thaw for 15 minutes before serving. Good enough to be a dessert too.

THE PUMPKIN PATCH

Carter and Karlie went to the pumpkin patch with all their cousins on their dad's side of the family this weekend. It is the same pumpkin patch they go to every year. It is not too far from their house. Karlie with all of her boy cousins. I think she holds her own pretty good with them.
They said that Karlie was not afraid to try anything.

Where is Karlie?

ABBY AT THE ZOO

Looks like she was having fun.
