Crock Pot Roast


A couple of months ago me and a friend threw Rachel a bridal shower, and as part of the fun we made her a recipe book with recipes from the people that were invited. I thought the recipe book was such a cute idea and it let everyone involved (even if they couldn't attend) give Rachel something special.  One of the recipes we got was for pot roast in the crock pot.  After the wedding when Rachel and Brad came home from their honeymoon I wanted to have something special for them to come home to and what's better than a home cooked meal!  So I made this pot roast and both Brad and Rachel said it was so yummy!  It was super easy to make and it had some ingredient that I wasn't expecting like coke and chili sauce.  So I wanted to share the recipe because it is so good!
Crock Pot Roast
1 package French onion soup mix
A can of chili sauce
A can of coke
Rump roast
Baby carrots
Sunrise potatoes
1 medium onion
Directions:  Mix 1 package of french onion soup mix, can of chili sauce, and a can of coke in a bowl.  Place rump roast on the bottom of the crock pot.  Add baby carrots and sunrise potatoes and then pour the mixture of soup on top.  Cook on low for 6-8 hours or on high for 4 hours (the longer you cook it, the more tender the meat).
It is totally delish and super easy to make.

Wedding time!

So my bestest friend in the whole wide world, Rachel, is getting married.  And it's coming up so soon!  I'm so excited for her and Brad.  They are just the sweetest couple ever.  I love them!  Sunday some ladies from the church and myself had a bridal shower for Rachel and I wanted to share a few pictures from the day.  I'm also getting super excited because my bridesmaid dress came in this weekend too!  And Friday we're going down to Oak Island to celebrate Rachel!  More on that later, I'm sure. 
Jody had the cutest idea for some decorations at the shower.  She saw on Pinterest (of course!) a girl who for her boyfriend birthday put pictures of them on balloons.  So Jody did that with Rachel and Brad's engagement pictures!  So cute!


Jody also made like the best cupcakes ever!  I think she called them "old fashion" cupcakes.  They were amazing and had almond icing.  Yum!  Yum!

I got Brad to share some things he loves about the bride and I wrote those on a piece of canvas.  I was so excited about that because it was super secret :)  I made me happy to see Rachel read those.
The lovely Bride and her corsage.  I had a time trying to put it on, then my mom took over.





After the shower we took the balloons and took a few pictures.
