Up to no good

That’s what Ryder Rada was up to this weekend!

Decorating the upstairs hallway with purple crayon! At least he picked a pretty color ðŸĪŠ Hopefully, a magic eraser will clean it right up. ðŸĪžðŸŧ 

Other than the interior design, it was a VERY low key weekend-as in...we did basically NOTHING! 

We ate lots of grilled cheese sandwiches 👍ðŸŧ

And played all kinds of things! Bents is adjusting to his patches to treat his dual “lazy eyes” and has been such a champ! He’s a pirate just in time for Halloween 😉❤️ Please pray that God will heal his precious little eyes!!! We are just so thankful he can see well and that it isn’t anything worse!

You just complete us, Bents!!! 

Yesterday was back to school

Followed by an afternoon trip to the duck pond to release our fair fishy into a pond where he could have some friends!

Homemade Apple Muffins

This morning I just really wanted to bake and use some of our apples from our recent orchard trip. A quick search of “healthy Apple muffins” turned up this recipe and it did not disappoint!

The finished product was perfect! Literally heavy with so many nutritionally dense ingredients and bursting with so many delicious flavors. 

Shredding the apples and carrots was the hardest part but once all ingredients were gathered it was SO easy!

Just basically mixed it all up and put it in the oven. It called for 12 large muffins but I was able to fill 15 to 
the top and bake about 20 minutes instead of 15. I also substituted raisins for the cranberries because I had them in hand.

*my muffin tin has seen better days!*

I’m so glad I made these! Bents loved them and it was a great way to get lots of fiber into his day. Travis ate them like cupcakes, and Ryder enjoyed one, too! I won’t say how many I ate! ðŸ˜ģ🙈👍ðŸŧ

Look at those pretty colors! 

If you’re looking for a way to use up some of your apples, I highly recommend this recipe!

Love,
