Sausage, Projectile Vomit, and April Photo A Day....

Well after a crazy week or so, I am back.

My hubby had his days off so we went out to his farm to make sausage. We had such a good time and accomplished alot. I chased Ella around quite a bit, but I did get a chance to get my hands dirty. We had some Elk meat from Preston's hunting adventures this year, so we went out and made 90 pounds of sausage. It was so nice to escape to the middle of no where. I actually love going places where there is barely any cell service, and of course Ella was so excited that after so much time of asking to see a cow, she finally got to. Too cute.

 I was not to sure how sausage was  made, but I got to see it first hand from start to finish. It was awesome to learn something new and benefiting from the hard work. OUR FREEZER IS STUFFED. Sausage anyone?


We were able to make 2 kinds, a breakfast sausage which is a little more on the sweet side due to my husbands obsession with brown sugar, and a jalapeno kind, for my obsession of spicy.

After we got back from the farm, we had a busy week. Ella and I intended on travelling to saskabush, but of course the crazy flu hit our house, so we couldn't go. My husband was bed ridden for practically 48 hours and then it hit my poor baby Ella. She has never been sick other than with a cold, so the poor little angel just didn't understand what was going on. I really have to say though, she sure knows how to inform us when the up chucking will start, which was helpful the 12 times throughout the night. Just a shout out to my sister for informing me of the B.R.A.T. Diet for when you or your child has gastrointestinal distress. Banana, Rice, Apple Sauce, and Toast. Works like a charm. Ella is better now, and even went for her first hair cut today, which was fantastic. She looks so old now. If only we could freeze time. Boy oh Boy.

One last thing, April Photo a Day has just begun so with that being said below is my April 1st and April 2nd shots.

 April 1st - Your Reflection
Seriously how awkward is it to take a picture of yourself in the mirror. I was trying to line it up, so that my phone wasn't taking up the whole shot and this is what I got..a goofy reflection..lol.


April 2nd - Colour
A Picture of a beautiful card my friend Fran gave me today wishing my family a happy Easter. I love the yellow in this card. What a sweet way to end my day.
