Sisters

I don't have any sisters, or sister-in-laws (yet!) but Tuesday I got to visit with the next best thing! Katie and I have been friends since she was born about a week after me. I have forgiven her for stealing my bottle as an infant and waking me up before 7am at every sleepover we attended, and I think she's forgiven me for making up all kinds of stories to keep myself out of trouble at her expense! Amanda came along a couple of years later and these two girls are the absolute closest thing I have to sisters. Luckily enough, Ross and I passed through Greenville at dinner time yesterday on our way home from Atlanta and we got to catch up. The time I spend with the Limbaugh girls is always great, albeit way too infrequent.

High School Musical: The Remake

This weekend while hanging out in High Point with the Weismans, Kameron and Jill decided to entertain us with their favorite High School Musical songs. These kids could not be any cuter! We love being around as they grow up. Kate, the best big sister ever, was at a sleepover so we missed out on getting good pictures of her. Check out Jill's face in the picture below...she doesn't appreciate anyone trying to sing along!!

3 years!

Tomorrow is our three year anniversary. Which means that we started dating 10 years ago! It seems like yesterday that I met that blonde headed, blue eyed, senior at his soccer game. I'm blessed to have such an awesome partner in life. Enjoy some of my favorite pictures from my favorite day...

Ashley's new house

Last weekend, Ashley's family had a wonderful housewarming party for her. She moved into such a sweet little dollhouse and has done a ton of work making it her own. Kylie and I were both able to go and we had so much fun catching up. These girls are two of my best friends from college, and we have a good time no matter where we are or what we're doing.

Random...

A couple of weeks ago we went to High Point to hang out with Joey and Leslie to see a great 80's band, The Breakfast Club. (Check them out at thebreakfastclub.com) Definitely go and see them if they are in your area- we had a great time. And we of course had fun playing with their awesome kids...see Ross with sweet baby Jill below.

In huge dog news, Mack is enormous.

Been a while...

Seriously, I have got to get better at this blogging thing! It's been a pretty busy couple of weeks for us, but I thought I'd at least post for my few readers who check in on the married Mulls. It is finally starting to feel like fall which is my absolute favorite time of year. I totally buy into fall everything, and feel like I can't get through a pretty fall weekend without a leisurely stroll in the park with a pumpkin spice latte. Silly, I know, but I love love love this time of year.



Ok, and I have to share this gross sounding, delicious tasting recipe as well. I have a teeny, tiny sweet tooth (minus the teeny tiny) and I'm always looking for goodies I can bake, enjoy, and not feel terrible about. I found a recipe for Black Bean Brownies and thought they sounded disgusting, but interesting enough to try just once. They were VERY good! I had Ross and Jared try my "new recipe" and give me their stamp of approval before I filled them in on the ingredients. I took some to school too and they were a hit. Pretty sure I'll be making these instead of traditional brownies most of the time.







Black Bean Brownies

1 box brownie mix (I think I used Betty Crocker family style)

1 can of black beans



-Open beans and dump them into a colander to drain and rinse off the slime

-Put rinsed beans back in the can and fill the can to the top with water

-Puree beans and water in a blender or food processor

-Add bean puree to the brownie mix and bake as directed



Considering the amount of protein and fiber in these, I definitely think they are worth a try!
