Oh the Romance! And Crock Pot Ham

My hubby is so romantic. We celebrated our anniversary and there was chocolate, roses everywhere, champagne, warm baths, shoes, and diamonds! Yep I have a major keeper. So blessed to have this wonderful man. Even if I didn't have all the gifty stuff just the thought and effort he puts into our life in general makes me so thankful. He takes care of me when I am sick (which is all the time), or just does things to love me like snuggling, or dancing, or filling up my car with gas. I pray I make him feel the same everyday.

We went on a marriage retreat last weekend and had a crazy good time. Can we say waterpark! We played in the water for hours. The only downside was I went down this slide on a foam thing on your tummy and my top slid down...But our friend held up my foam thing so I could fix my self. It was so embarrassing but funny looking back now. During the fun we did a class called the 5 love languages. It was actually a great class and confirmed a lot of what we thought or already did. Since I now know what his love language is for sure now (I knew before but the fun test confirmed it) I am going to speak it forever! EVERY DAY

I just feel so loved and happy I could burst. I know that the effort we put into our marriage everyday is so worth it.

We had Thanksgiving this year at a friends house. And had so much fun with them. We ate and ate, played games, drank some wine, and played with my nephew and niece. It was such a great time with lots of laughter. Each of us brought half the dinner and split the leftovers....mmm leftovers. We tried a new recipe for crockpot ham turned out fantastic! And was so easy...

Crock Pot Ham

1 spiral ham
2 cups brown sugar
pineapple slices

Place 1 cup of brown sugar on the bottom on crockpot, then place your ham, 1 cup brown sugar, and then the pineapple slices. I put the spiral cut side down. Let cook for 6-8 hrs on low. Pull the ham out and place in a dish and if your ham came with a  glaze packet (ours was honey) just put that on top and let sit for 5-10 min to soak in...Amazing! So easy!
