Easy Fudge Pie
My mom made this a couple weeks ago and it was so.so.good. She told me it was easy and she wasn't kidding. I am making this tonight.
1/4 cup cocoa
1/4 cup flour
1 cup sugar
dash of salt
Mix above ingredients together.
2 eggs
1/2 cup butter, melted
Stir eggs into melted butter and then into dry ingredients. Mix well. Pour into an unbaked pie shell. Bake at 350 for 35-40 minutes. Serve with whipped cream or ice cream.
If you cut this to serve 8, it is 9 PointsPlus per serving.

When he grows up
If you had asked me 3 months ago what I thought Colin would be when he grows up, I would have said an athlete. He loves balls. So of course, I planned his 2nd birthday party around soccer.
Today I would tell you he will be a musician. He loves any instrument. Mamaw's house is the best because he can play the piano and he has access to Uncle Will's drums and guitar. He even loves the harmonica Great Grandma Snyder lets him play.
He can spot guitars anywhere. When we are driving past Chamber's Guitars here in town. Or even in the new Keith Urban song. You know - he says "fast cars, guitars" and Colin yells "guitars!!"
When I worked in the nursery a couple of Sunday's ago, we had a DVD in the player that played some worship music. My little guys stops what he is doing and spreads his legs wide apart, bending at the knees, and bounces at he rocks out on his air guitar.
Yes, today I am going to say he will be a musician.
We have also recently discovered that he hs a little crush on Carrie Underwood. If her videos or a commercial with her in it comes one, Colin stops what he is doing to watch.

Apples, Strawberries, and Bikes
This is what we did this weekend. First, I tried some new cake pops for Colin's teachers. Apples!
Then Colin helped Daddy put together his new bike.
And the best part: strawberry picking. We had planned to go on Saturday, but once I saw Hallie's strawberry picking post I decided I wanted to change where we were going. And I am so glad I did. Valley Home is so nice and Colin had so much fun. He didn't do much picking...mostly eating. In fact, I was washing some berries last night and I found one that Colin had taken a bite of an put back into my basket.
