February Funk

I haven't had the urge to update my blog this month. Same 'ol ho hum stuff happening in the Finn household.  The highlights of the month included:

Nana, Poppa, and Reese came to visit.
Aubrey and Reese FINALLY played together.
Only took 31 months.

While they were here, we hit up the MN Children's Museum.
The girls spent most of their time in the water room.

Aidan spent most of his time on the conveyor belt, sending
foam blocks up the conveyor belt.

Kyle graduated from Ohio State University with his
Certified Financial Planners degree. Now he just needs
to pass the licensing exam...

We celebrated with our friend, Jackson, at Pump It Up,
as he turned 4.  Great place for kids!

Aidan had his final hockey game of the season.
Kyle's team is still at it and will play in the
Section Finals on Wednesday at Mariucci Arena. (U of MN campus)

Winner Dinner(s)

*Editors note:  I wrote this blog several weeks ago, couldn't publish it on my iPad, then forgot about it.  

Does anyone else get "recipe block" in the winter months? You know, when you just can't figure out what to make for dinner?  Every winter I start craving casseroles, but they're all made with some sort of dairy product that Aubrey can't eat, and I end up back at square one, trying to figure out what to have for dinner.  I spent last weekend blog trolling, looking for some yummy recipes.  Here's what I found that we all agreed were yummy dinners:

Pot Sticker Burgers (no pot stickers involved, but still delicious)

Chili Lime Chicken Burgers 

Chicken-Sausage Pasta Toss

Meatloaf Muffins: no link because I devised these bad boys myself
