Well it is another manic monday...I should be cleaning up my kitchen from dinner...but I am blogging instead...I need a brain break after a long day...
The kids went back to school today so the house was quiet. I missed the kids, but I was able to get some work done without hearing "Mom" every 5 minutes. :-) I ended up having to work until 7:30. Did I mention I hate Pacific time and late meetings? But...I am thankful to have a job...so I will just keep doing what has to be done...(sigh)
The chicken tenderloins I mentioned in Saturday's post were "off the chain" as Gene put it! :-) Here is the recipe in case you want to give them a try! YUM!!!! I served them with potatoes and corn on the cob, but it would have been yummy with some steamed rice!
The strawberry pie and Banana pudding turned out great. But the crockpot chicken not so much! I hate when you try a new recipe and it doesn't turn out good. I had to end up running to the store on Easter and buy a Rotisserie chicken. :-( I hate having to make people work on holidays.
The Burell Family's Easter turned out nice. We had a nice breakfast at church followed by an awesome worship service! After church, we made homemade pizzas with my parents and had some of the leftover pie and pudding. Then the kids invited some neighborhood kids over and we hid Easter Eggs for them to find. My kids have outgrown the "Easter Bunny". But it is still fun to hunt for eggs. The rest of the day we just chilled. It was nice. We usually have FPU (Financial Peace University) on Sunday nights. It was a nice break to be home for a change.

This picture is the best we could get of our kids who did NOT want their picture taken!
If you know us well, you know we are working as hard as we can to be debt free! I updated our "Debt snowball" today and we just broke $18000 paid off since July 2008! Go Burells!! We are moving along quite swiftly and hope to be credit card debt free by this fall! I will keep you posted on our progress! :-)
Well I hope you all had a great Easter and that you have a great week. It is going to be another busy one for the Burell Family...
Take Care!
