Food Challenge Week 3

This week all the recipes look really good. I'm excited to try them out!

Here they are:
Taco Soup
Cheesy Chili Dip
White Chocolate Raspberry Cheesecake Bars

Enjoy!

BBQ Chicken Chopped Salad

So, I made this tonight and we like it. It's a keeper! I like it more than Chad does because it's light and easy. Chad could do without the lettuce and just have the meat. :) I like that you can add any veggies you want to it and that it is quick.

Snow Snow Go Away....

So, today it snowed and it is sticking. :( I have Super Saturday in the morning and am hoping the roads won't be too bad because I hate driving on slippery roads. I guess it's not that early for Pullman to be getting snow, but I was hoping it would hold off for a little while longer. Oh well!

Food Challenge Week 2

So this week the three new recipes are....

Triple Chocolate Pumpkin Pie
BBQ Chicken Chopped Salad
Sizzling Shrimp Quesadillas

I already know I won't be using shrimp in the quesadillas. They all look really good. Remember, if you are interested in joining the food challenge go here. Let me know if any of you have joined the Food Challenge and how your food is turning out.

Maple- Walnut Chicken

So, I made the Maple-Walnut Chicken Recipe on Friday and we really like it. I don't have any pictures....sorry. Chad was a little nervous because it calls for apple-cider vinegar and made the house smell really bad. I left out the walnuts. I'm not a big nut fan, but this one is a keeper. Yay! I am getting more recipes to rotate through. I haven't made the cake yet, but really want too. I will probably make it when lots of family is around because we won't eat it all.

Potty Training

So the past week I have been potty training Ellie and it has gone REALLY well. She goes poop and pee in the potty no problem. She is just still leaning to tell me BEFORE she starts peeing. She has had only two night accidents and still has several during the day, but I can't complain. She thinks it's fun running to the potty and sitting on the big toilet. They love to play with her big girl undies and with the toilet. I'm excited to start going places again as she gets better.

Halloween

Well...our Halloween didn't turn out like we had planned, but it was still fun. Hayden woke up with a fever and wasn't his normal sweet and happy self, so we didn't do much. We had a ward party that we were planning on going to, but Chad stayed home with Hayden, so that I could get out of the house and take Ellie Trick 'or' Treating. Ellie was a cheerleader this year and Hayden was going to be Tom Cruise from Risky Business. I was really looking forward to Hayden dressing up. I will just have to dress him up later and post some pictures. Ellie had a blast playing with her friends, eating candy, and playing games. There were a lot of cute costumes too.
