mmm King Ranch Chicken

A couple of you asked for the King Ranch Chicken recipe from Isaac's birthday party so here it is. I wish now I had taken a picture but oh well, you'll just have to imagine its tastiness. This was my grandmama's recipe.

Ingredients:

• 1 package corn tortillas
• 1 3lb fryer boiled and boned OR 4 bone-in breasts baked (we used breasts for the party)
• 3-4 Tbs chili powder
• 1 Tbs cumin
• 1 onion
• bell pepper
• 1 clove of garlic
• 1/2 lb sharp Cracker Barrel cheese + more for topping (we also add pepper jack cheese)
• 1 can cream of celery soup
• 1 can cream of chicken soup
• 1/2 can hot rotel tomatoes OR for kid-friendly diced stewed tomatoes

Directions:

Saute onion garlic and pepper until soft. Add chili powder, cumin, soups and tomatoes. Stir until well blended.

Make layers in a casserole dish

• tortillas
• chicken
• soup mixture
• grated cheese

Cover with foil and bake about 30 minutes at 350F until bubbly

Enjoy!

It's the Great Pumpkin Charlie Brown

We took Isaac to the pumpkin patch at church Saturday afternoon. He was a little confused but we ended up with a few good pictures.

Ike ♥s letters!

Auntie Sheryl gave Isaac jumbo magnetic letters for his birthday. He LOVES them! His favorite letter is O. He always finds the two Os first and crawls around with them. Thank you Sheryl!!!

Happy Birthday!!!

I can't believe Isaac is a year old today. Time flies when you're having fun!!!

I love you to the moon and back!

Little Fighter

Isaac looks like he's been in a fight. Poor guy had a run-in today with a bathroom cabinet. I'm sure it's the first of many. Hopefully it won't turn purple over night. I guess his 1 year portraits will commemorate his first shiner.

Birthday Bash!!!

My mom and I had a great time decorating the cake and cupcakes last night.

This was my second and final attempt at icing Isaac's little cake. I need to practice my piping.

Isaac went after the cake after a couple of minutes of "is it really okay for me to put my hands in this?" He had it up to his elbows and not one drop on the floor. It all went straight to the mouth.

Present time. Isaac received so many wonderful gifts, Thanks everyone!!!

We had such a fun time today at Isaac's First Birthday Party. We can't thank everyone enough for all the great gifts. I think my favorite part of the day was looking around and seeing all of my childhood friends together again. (we missed you Michelle) It was a special day spent with special people. Here are just a couple of pictures from the day. I'll post more this week.

Kibbles and Bits

Isaac had his first mouthful of cat food this afternoon...and I mean mouthful!!!
