I found Kenadi and Emma playing so good in their room the other day. It was so cute. Emma was "reading" the Hymn book and Kenadi was "reading" the atlas. She was telling Emma about all of the places we've been, where everybody lives, and where we were all born. They were all happy and content. I loved just listening and watching them, and I got the feeling of, "I just don't want this to end. PLEASE don't grow up so fast!" I've had a few of those moments this week. I wish I could capture them all.
On an entirely different note, HAMBURGERS! Obviously I'm not a food photographer, but this helps give you the gist. We've had our fair share of hamburgers this year. We like to get out the grill a LOT. Our weather has been beautiful, and today was 77 deg., perfect grilling weather. I've enjoyed a few different burgers. So today I recreated one of our favorites. I like this one because I like a few things on my burger like onions and peppers, but I like mine saute'd first. I would rather mine not be as potent or crunchy like they are when they are raw. This is much faster and easier. I don't have to get out an extra pan, and they have great flavor!
Hope you like it as much as we do!
Favorite Stuffed Hamburgers
1 lb of lean hamburger meat
3 T BBQ sauce
1 T Worcestershire sauce
1 T mustard
1 egg
1/2 C oatmeal
Salt/pepper to taste
Montreal steak seasoning- a few shakes
Well, all of these measurements are estimated, but it's close. I squish all of the above ingredients together. Divide mixture into 4 equal parts. Take one of the parts and half it, squish it into a very flat patty. Next, add what you like in the middle. I like mushrooms, onion, green or red pepper, basil, etc. Randy likes hot peppers, onion, cilantro, and green pepper. Slice all of these center ingredients VERY thin and add them to the middle of your flat patty. With the other half of your meat, squish it very flat and put on top of your fillings. Pinch edges together. Cook with grill on medium heat for 5 minutes, and flip them over for another 4 or 5 minutes. Check to see if they are done.

hmmm...I have hamburgers on the menu for tomorrow, so maybe I'll try this. Of course, the kids will be filled with meat. Heaven forbid a vegetable make it's way into their hamburger! Speaking of, does ketchup count as a vegetable/fruit? The kids think it does; I beg to differ!
I have lots of comments because somehow I missed your last couple of posts....
1. yummy hamburgers! I have tried stuffed hamburgers before and they didn't turn out too well, so now I am determined to try again.
2. cute halloween pics. I love that you dressed up too!
3. good worker on your pears, that is a lot of work.
4. Good job Randy on celebrating Tara for a whole 2 months. Wives need that! And yah for the creepy guy in the grocery store parking lot, I laughed out loud. Very funny!
Happy late Halloween! Come visit!
Are you guys going home for Christmas. You should come here!
I am having a baby on the 11th, so my parents and Dustin are coming for Christmas. But the more the merrier. You should come, it would be so much fun! How far away are you?
