Slow-Cooker Pumpkin Pie & Speedway In Lights

Hello Lovelies,

 I hope everyone has had a great day, I spent the day relaxing with my whole family around the house, eating leftover Christmas dinner & then we headed out to the Bristol Motor Speedway for the Speedway in Lights. If you've never been there it really needs to be put on your bucket list! 

I didn't get the chance to take many pictures due to being in the back seat of a pick-up but I did get these pictures :)

                                    

My Mommy & Daddy!                    Snow Flurries!!!                             Pretty Lights!               

I'm hoping we get to go back one more time this year. 

They have an open air sleigh (tram) ride that we're hoping to reserve & if we do I should be able to get some awesome photos of the lights. :)

As promised, here is the Slow-Cooker Pumpkin Pie recipe I promised...

This recipe is delicious & sooo easy to make! 

You really should give it a try! 

Merry Christmas ( a few hours late)

I hope you all had a wonderful Christmas,  I know I did! I ate Way too much Ham, & mashed potatoes & gravy (Ham gravy is my favorite! ) & I had a blast with my family, especially when my dad started throwing the dinner rolls to my brother like they were little footballs, although that came to a halt when my brother missed a roll & it hit the floor ( we couldn't risk losing anymore rolls Lol).

In the previous post I mentioned my craft projects but couldn't share details but seeing as how they have opened the gifts I suppose I can tell you. I actually made coasters out of tile & scrapbook paper.

I made 4 sets, I will post pictures of all 4 sets later, along with how I made them :)

I'm using the Blogger app on my Droid  for the first time so I apologize if theirs any spelling errors or any errors in general for that matter. The app is handy but it is very limited. 

It's getting pretty late so I am heading to bed. Next post I plan on giving you guys a delicious crock-pot pumpkin cake recipe. :)

I'm Back!

Hey all, I know my blog has been oh so quiet lately, things finally started to slow down around here but now I have no internet  :/ I'm at my grandmas house for the evening & thought I would post. I can't wait to get my internet back so I can start blogging all the time again. 

I'm working on some crafty projects right now but their Christmas presents so they will have to stay a secret for now ;) 

I don't know about you guys but I am loving the holiday season! Hot cocoa, sweaters, mittens, snow, Christmas movies & music, & most of all spending time with my family.

Speaking of which it's getting a bit late & my hubby is ready to head home so I will leave you with the trailer from my all time favorite Christmas movie ever...

I hope you all have a safe & wonderful Christmas!
