Homemade Pizza...Well Sort Of

I have never made homemade pizza.  Growing up we would make mini pizzas on English Muffins, but not full size pizzas.  Pillsbury pizza crust was on sale so I thought we would give it a try.  I bought all the ingredients and we were set! (This is where the "sort of" part comes into play!  I didn't make anything from scratch!  I bought all the ingredients individually and then put them together to make a pizza! lol)  

Jake rolled out the crust.  We tried to make it bigger, but the crust kept tearing.  So our pizza turned out to be a funny shape.  I have NO CLUE how pizza places get their pizza to be a perfect circle!  We tried tossing it up in the air (like you see at pizza places), we tried mashing it with our fingers, and a rolling pin.  None of these options made it easy to make a perfectly round pizza.  

Anyway, we had fun in the kitchen.  We laughed with each new method we tried to make the pizza round.  Once we finally gave up and just decided to eat whatever shape it turned out to be, we added sauce, cheese, pepperoni, and bacon.  
 Jake adding Cheese
 Before Going into the oven!  Half the pizza was cheese (my half) and the other half had the pepperoni and bacon (Jake's half).  
 The final product!  It was very good! 
  I am so thankful to have a husband who is willing to help me in the kitchen.  I love the memories we have made laughing about making something new or messing it up together!  We really do make a great team!
