Took Mic and her friends to the pool.  Mic got a good sunburn from the day.  She wasn't really ready for the photo. Oops. ;-)  But I got tired of telling her to look up.

06-10 Bye Gabe

Gabe headed off for Camp Bandina this morning after services.  We also said farewell to the youth minister.  He's headed to a preaching job in Colorado.  Really wish we were headed to a new life as well.

Already missing this little guys hugs.


06-09 Packing

Gabe packing for his week at Camp Bandina. Seems to be trying really hard to bring along what he'll miss most.



06-08 Chicken Tacos

This was our "Blazing Saddles" meal. ;-)  I got this recipe from a mom in our homeschool group.  Loved it the first time we had it so I made it again.  Easy to make and I love that I could make it in the crock pot.  Lucy's recipe called for 3 chicken breasts in the bottom of the pot but I had 5 so I used them all.  Also a package of taco seasoning, I should have used two but it was still good.  Then I topped that with a large can of black beans and a large can of ranch style beans.  I left the pot on low all day.  When done I shredded the chicken and mixed it all together. I added my favorite side dish with Mexican meals, Rice a Roni Spanish Rice.


We had hard taco shells and flour tortillas, most of my family prefers flour tortillas.  But here is all the toppings we used.  I like simple and plain so I just used cheese, lettuce, and sour cream.  Usually I would have added chips to my plate but I wasn't that hungry so I skipped em.


Thanks for the recipe Lucy we love it!!
