Enchanted Evening

We had so much fun the other night!  My friend, Sue, invited us to her house for dinner and strawberry margaritas- I mean "slushies".;-)  Sue and her husband have the most wonderful home on 54 acres.  The strawberries were grown in their garden and they were absolutely divine- yummmm!  They also made the most INCREDIBLE chicken kabobs with grilled veggies.  Sue told me she would share the recipes and, believe me, I will be posting them!  
Our girls had the best time playing together on the trampoline (Katie and Teagan did wipe out, but c'est la vie), in the playhouse (so cute- even had a loft!), by the pond, in the playroom, etc.  We saw peacocks, bluebirds, chickens (they raise them) and even a snake!  In fact, as we were leaving, Mandy said, "No offense Mom, but I like their house better than ours."  I have to say that I agree with her.:-)  Thanks again, Sue, for the fabulous evening!

    Sounds like a wonderful get-together! That margarita had my name ALL over it!

    EASY COBBLER

    1 C sugar

    Preheat oven to 350*. Place stick of marg in 9 x 13 pyrex dish and place in oven, remove when completely melted and bubbling. Combine and add first 6 ingredients to pyrex dish, then spoon peaches on top (no liquid) Bake for 35 min.

    Slushies sound great!
