Christmas 2008

Well, once again I'm a bad person getting out Christmas cards! So, I decided to "post" my Christmas card this year. Then if I get them in the mail...then I get them in the mail! If I don't...then I don't!

Wishing everyone a very merry Christmas! God Bless you all!

IT'S STILL A GIRL!!!!

Santa Fe Soup

I LOVE new recipes...I'm sure you've heard me say that before! I was at my Mom's house last night and she showed me a new recipe that Kayda had mailed to her. So guess what's on my stove top right now! You guessed it...Santa Fe Soup! Kayda told Mom that it's good to serve with Corn Bread. We just had beans and I had some leftover corn bread because I made a double batch.
Here's the recipe:
SANTA FE SOUP
(from Kayda's kitchen)
Brown:
1 lb. hamburger with 1/2 onion
Then add:
1 can Rotel
1 can corn (undrained)
1 can Bush's Chili (Kayda likes medium...I only had mild)
1 can crushed tomatoes
Then add:
8 oz. Velveeta
You can't get much easier than that! It smells wonderful! I'll report on the results later! Have a great Wednesday!

Decorating time!

Kam came over tonight and helped me really get in gear and get my decorating done! I know...it should have already been done but...that's just how I function!


Thanks Kam! It was fun! I can't believe that your senior yr. is almost over!

No...I'm not posing for the picture!





I was bound and determined to get these stars made to put on my tree for the little ones... I called my Mom and she had the machine to cut them out so I headed over there and got them cut out and came home and got started! They need one more coat of paint and then a sealer put on them to make them shine a little bit! They were fun to make! I like projects that are simple and not very time consuming!




Something new this year. This is above my dining room table.


I'm not sure where I'll put the stockings this year. You can't really tell in this picture but there are lights in this garland and it's really pretty with the lights down low.

I still have some to do but for the most part...it's complete. I can't believe that Christmas is a little over a week away! It crept up on me this year!

Oh...one more thing...


Unless Brock & Molli's ultrasound shows differently this time when they go to the Dr. tomorrow...we are getting our little girl! She's going to have to be a tough one to keep up with Preston & Keegen!

Thanksgiving Feast

Well, it's been here and gone again for another year. We had a wonderful Thanksgiving time with our families. We were able to spend Thanksgiving Day with Mike's parents, with my family at my Mom's house Friday night, and then finished up yesterday (Sunday) here in our home with our kids, their spouses, and my parents and 2 sisters. We missed you Kayda & Joe! :(
I would love to hear from some of you what your "traditional" family favorite recipes are during Thanksgiving. Following was our menu on Sunday:
Turkey~Dressing~Mashed potatoes & turkey gravy~Sweet potatoes (Grandma Tincy's recipe)
Shoe Peg Corn Casserole (one of our favorites)
Pecan Pie & my favorite...RED VELVET CAKE! with the "original" red velvet cake frosting (not cream cheese frosting!)
We have the Shoe Peg Corn Casserole recipe in the first recipe book that Mom and I created! I will post a picture of the recipe that's in the book. We printed these books in 1999 and ran out of them almost immediately but are thinking about printing some more...if you would like one let me know. They are $6.00+shipping. There are 40 of some of our favorite family recipes in the book. I use this book almost every time I cook. I guess you could say that I'm a recipe "junkie"! I just love getting new ones and trying them! Some pass...some don't!
