ChIcKs RuLe!!

Today I got to spend the afternoon with my two sisters, two of my nieces and my daughter. It was so fun! We saw Bride Wars and we all loved it! I am so thankful that my sister and niece moved back from Virginia and also thankful that I got a cute" bonus" niece named Jayne! Of course I am also grateful for Sophie. We went browsing at Thanksgiving Point and got a good collection of candy and saw the movie! Really, who could ask for more? Thanks girls! YOU RULE!!!

ChIcKen NooDle SouP fOr ThE BoDy aNd SoUl

My cute sis- in- law asked me for this and I thought perhaps someone else may want to try it.

This is my mother- in-law's recipe and it is tasty!

5 or 6 chicken breasts
9 carrots
8 celery
1 onion
2 or 3 T. dry chicken broth
1 1/2 t. salt

combine in an 8 quart or larger pan filled with water. Cook about three hrs.- remove chicken and cut into small pieces and put back into pan.

Mix together in blender:

1/4 c. butter
2/3 c. flour
1 c. milk

Add mixture to soup 1/2 hour before serving.
Add 12 oz. egg noodles the last 20 minutes.

I am telling you that this noodle soup will beat most you have had before!

YUM-O

I like to serve it in bread bowls!

I'll Be A SunBeAm FoR HiM!

Isn't it fitting that right at the start of the coldest month of the year, we get a little burst of sunshine! It comes in the form of a Sunbeam and this little guy was really excited!! The only downside was that he wanted to wear a spongebob tie! Funny how I could not seem to find it!

We are so proud of our little guy!
