Kid Nation

Has anyone seen this show? It has become one of our favorites and I just wanted to see if anyone else likes it. If you haven't seen it, check it out. It is on on Wednesday nights... It is a good family show that you can watch with your kids.

Frightmares~

Here are some pictures from our trip to frightmares last night. I think the kids all had a great time and it was perfect weather!
I don't think they were too scared of this "monster" it looks like Bryanna is actually shaking his hand.
Apparently Aiden didn't like the monster!
Here are the kids trick-or-treating...
The older girls

Rich and Creamy Tomato Basil Soup

This has been my FAVORITE recipe to make this fall. I honestly could eat it for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. It is super easy to make and so yummy! Try it out and let me know what you think.

1 14oz. can whole tomatoes
1 can tomato sauce
2 cans water
14 basil leaves, chopped (1Tbs)
3/4 cup half and half
1/2 cup butter
1/4 tsp. garlic powder
1/4-1/2 tsp. chipotle Tabasco sauce
salt and pepper to taste

Place tomatoes, sauce, water basil, garlic, and Tabasco sauce in a blender and puree. Pour into crock pot, over medium heat, and stir in half and half and butter. Season with salt and pepper. Heat, stirring until butter is melted. Do not boil.

*When I made this last night I added more half and half and less water. I can't wait to go have some more for lunch!!*

There isn't a whole lot to say about these pictures,
except for...
"What were we thinking!"

Way to go, Mom!

Congratulations to our Jet Blue Graduate!
We are proud of you for making it through the training...
We know it took hard work and a lot of late nights
and we all appreciate it!
We are surely going to enjoy the flying benefits
when we see you more often in NY...

THROWBACK THURSDAY~

Do you all remember way back at the beginning of the year when we were all so excited and so determined to finish the Book of Mormon by the end of the year? Is everyone going to make it? Remember Grandma has a little incentive for everyone who finishes!
