Big night of Scouts!!




Braxton has been working very hard in Scouts and we are so proud of him.  He has earned his Tenderfoot, First Aid, Swimming, and Indian Lore!!  Way to go buddy, your dad and I are always so proud of your accomplishments!!

Yes, those boys standing next to Braxton are his same age!!  :)  Good thing the boy loves Basketball....we are sure if he keeps growing and continues to play ball like he is, he will be supporting us with his salary he earns in the NBA!!!  :)

Cafe Mo!!


I am not much of a cook, but I am starting to make more and more home-made meals, which is healthier for me and my family!!

Tonight I made chicken salad......cafe rio style, without all the extra fat!!  I know it was good.....because even Braxton ate it and didn't complain about it being healthy!!

Total Calories-445
1 tortilla
2 tbs  salsa
1/4 c black beans
1/4 c (or less) shredded cheese
1/4 c onion
2 c romaine lettuce
1 chicken breast

mix the salsa in the chicken, cook beans, 
caramelize onions (yum), melt the cheese on the tortilla.  Place tortilla in a bowl and fill with ingredients listed above....and Presto you have a delicious dinner!!  

Enjoy!
