Mama's Dream

We all have dreams. Some are of a fab vacation, some are of winning the lottery, dreams of a bigger house, etc. Well my big dreams have been pushed aside. Most of all my hopes and dreams have all come true!!! I married my Prince Charming, Have 2 handsome boys, Get to stay home, etc. But all my BIG dreams I haven't even thought about in I can't tell you how long. My hopes and dreams also have changed, they all about the boys now. Hope they get into a good college, good grad school. Ok here is my low down on what I want to happen!!! High School Seton, Undergrad, ASU, Norte Dame, or USD, Medical School USC. There I said it!!! Both my boys do want to be doctors. Gabriel wants to go into sport medicine he wants to work with any pro sports team. He wants to be their team doctor. Matteo wants to be a ER doctor or trauma surgeon. HELLO what Mom doesn't want to say "My 2 sons are doctors"Im sure it will change but I can still dream!!!
We went to Seton Catholic High football game on Friday night. Boys had so much fun!!! As I looked around and took everything in. I got a little teary eyed. We got to go on the field, as I looked at the football players, I couldn't  help notice how BIG they are. Then I got choked up and teary eyed. OMG My boys will be that BIG in only a few years!!! Then I kinda got a sick feeling just thinking about it. UGH them dating, driving, going off to college, not needing me as much, I almost got dizzy. Later that night I told Gabe about me getting all freaked out. He said the BEST thing EVER. We are great parents and we can't stop time. Its going to happen. We are giving them high morals, values, and have big exceptions, we are giving them every opportunity life has to offer. If they screw up its because they are dump ass boys. We all have made mistakes, we learned from them and grew from them!!! UGH he is right!!
So my dream is so raise Happy, Healthy, Well Rounded, Sweet, Handsome, Doctors. Just maybe ill get one day  grandkids. OMG I just got a sick feeling again!! Them being married!!
So tonight Im making the boys their FAVE dinner. Pot Roast, mashed potatoes and candy carrots.

Pot Roast
4 lbs. pot roast
1 can Campbell's french onion soup
1 can Campbell's golen mushroom soup
1 can water
4 cloves mashed garlic
black pepper
all in crock pot 6+ hours

To make gravy from the roast, pour out the liquid and put in sauce pan.
bring to boil and mix in Wonder Flour Mix (mix 1/4 cup flour with 1/4 or less cup water in a cup)
bring back up to boil till it thickens. This is how my Mom always made it.

Mashed Potatoes
After boiling them use Half and Half , butter, and sour cream to mash them.

Candy Carrots
After they are streaming and draining them put butter and a little brown sugar on them. Your kids will LOVE them!!

Enjoy,
