I hope everyone had a great weekend, I did! The In-Laws came
over for the first time and got to see our town, then I took a trip home to go
to a baby shower to honor some close family friends. It was an eventful weekend
and I am still recovering from all the driving.
Friday evening Hubby’s wonderful parents came down and spent
the night we had so much fun. Hubby made some of the best stakes ever and
grilled some awesome asparagus that we all loved. We took them on a tour of the
town and even hit up a farmers market that I had no idea was there and I can’t
wait to make it a regular stop on the weekend. Saturday morning I made homemade
cinnamon rolls that turned out soooo stinking good I just have to share them
with you. First though read what I else I
did this weekend.

Saturday night I made the three hour drive up to home so I could
go to the baby shower Sunday. Before we left for the shower though I had some
time to go to my home church and visit the kiddos that I had in class for 3
years and all my friends there. It was awesome I have missed them all so much
and service was awesome and I wish we could just drive there every Sunday to
hang out because there is nothing like it here that we have found. I hung out
with my parents then mom and I headed out to meet our car buddies to head to
Joplin. I have worked with one of the ladies and was excited to see her again,
the other one I have known forever and she through me such a great wedding
shower and I hadn’t seen her since the wedding so it was great to catch up.
When we got to Joplin it was time to baby party it was great to see some old
friends and see the new little baby. She is just the cutest little thing and
such a good baby. Once we got back home it was time for me to make the drive
back.

It was our first time since we got married to spend the
night apart and a full day it was strange, and the poor dog actually missed me
while I was gone. Hubby was awesome
though he cleaned the house and made everything look great, bought my favorite
ice cream, and made dinner and had it ready right after I got home. It was
awesome, he is just the best!
Now for that cinnamon roll recipe. This is a recipe that I got in my baking class with a few changes. It can be made the night before and refrigerated
if you want.
