Welcome to my blog! I have been intrigued by the idea of a blog for a while now. When I was a girl I always wanted to keep a diary. But, I would get one and keep up with it for a week or two. Hopefully I'll do better with this! This blog probably won't be especially exciting, but if you want to hear about what's going on at our house then just read on!

Changing





Taylor is at the age where young girls seem to change overnight. I didn't realize how much she had changed in just 6 months until I was looking at these pictures of her just 6 months ago:







This is her now:




WOW!


She does still like to wear black and white stripes though. :)

Recipe - No Peek Chicken

I'm always looking for recipes for main dishes that are easy. This is one of our favorites, so I thought I would share.

No Peek Chicken

1 cup raw rice
1 can cream of chicken soup
1 can cream of mushroom soup
lipton onion soup mix (I use almost one full pouch - we like lots of flavor)
1/2 cup water
poultry seasoning (I have done it with and without this, and couldn't tell a difference)
1 to 4 lbs chicken, cut up (I use chicken breasts, but you can use a whole chicken and cut it up, chicken legs, etc.)

Preheat oven to 350 degrees
mix rice, soup, and water
Pour into greased 9 X 13 pan. (I use a baking dish that is oval and slightly smaller)
season chicken and lay on top
Sprinkle on soup mix

Cover with foil and bake 1 1/2 to 2 hours
