Ambers turning 24!

Amber is usually the one who updates the blog and I'm the one reader so this is going to be a role reversal.

Amber was born on June 9, 1987 in the little town of Moab, Utah. She has always been one of the cutest Ballard babies, with her curly blonde hair and bubbly personality. She loved to sing and dance as a kid and would intertain the family with both. Amber loves spending time with her Cha-Cha, cooking, hanging with the family and just about everything she does she makes it fun for all around. Amber is currently working and planning to go back to school to finish her degree.

We all hope that she has a little one for us to spoil soon! We love you and Happy Birthday!

If You Buy Your Wife An Amazing Cookbook...

..you may have to buy her a gym pass...or wire her mouth shut! And despite potential weight gain: This book is making me feel like a darn good cook!!

Chad bought this book for me as an early birthday gift and I've drooled over about 99% percent of the recipes that I've read so far. Not a bad move on his part, as he will be reaping most of the spoils! These recipes are so easy and who knows, I may venture past the 5 meals I make on a regular basis!
