Things to be Thankful For!

Thanksgiving is right around the corner.
One of the things I am most thankful for is my family.
I am blessed with a large extended family, all of whom I love dearly.
And, this year God is blessing my own little family with the dear addition of a Baby Girl!

I am hoping and praying that she will come early so that our baby girl and her big brother can wear this matching Thanksgiving garb I made for them!

(Other wise, baby girl will have to wear her bib next year and I'll have to make my son a new shirt!)

My son's shirt

I love the little Pilgrim hat the turkey is wearing!

Baby Girl's bib

Such a girl!

Too Cute!

Hopefully, I'll get to post pics of my two blessings wearing these soon!

I hope you all have a very Blessed Thanksgiving!!!

A Fun Holiday Recipe Swap

Attention!!!
It is time for a Holiday Recipe Swap!!!
Hosted by, 'Offering Hospitality!'


Check out the link for some great recipes and then be sure to share some of your own!



Recipe Swap: http://offeringhospitality.blogspot.com/2010/11/holiday-favorites-recipe-swap.html

Here's an Amazing Recipe that has been one of our family favorites for as long as I can remember.

Mini Cheese Cakes
Preheat oven 370 degrees
Aluminum Muffin Foils (not paper) to hold the Cheese cakes -they go inside regular Muffin pan get your pans ready.
1- Box Vanilla Wafer Cookies (these go in the bottom of the muffin tins -see below for tip*)
2- 8 oz cream cheese softened (blend together)
4- eggs (add one at a time)
1/2 cup sugar (blend into mixture)
1 tsp almond extract (blend into mixture)
* Use a glass measuring cup or spoon to put a quarter size amount of the above mixture in the bottom of each of your muffin foils, add the cookie and press it down into the mixture. Then add the remaining mixture on top of cookie -about half full. "Gluing" the cookie down with mixture will help keep cookie from floating up into the middle of cheese cake.)
Cook for 15 min-18min 370 degrees (cheese cakes should not be too jiggly and may crack, but should not be brown on top)
cools 5 min then add topper.
Topper:
2- cups sour cream
6- Tbls Sugar
1- tsp almond ext
(blend above ingredients)
5 min
Chill 4-6 hours

1 Can of Cherries and 1 tsp Almond Extract and Chill before serving

Hope you all enjoy!!!

You can also use different type of berries or even chocolate and nuts to top these off with. My husband and I had these at our wedding in addition to our wedding cakes. They were wonderful!

ABC's Are too much fun!

Alright, so my two year old son, Buckaroo, is in LOVE with letters. He can identify his upper and lower case letters, knows their names, and the sounds they make. He is always spotting words and "reading/spelling" out the letters that compile them. Buckaroo also loves to sing the ABC song. So, I thought it was high time I make him his own special ABC shirt!

Tada!!!



"Now I know my ABC's and I know that GOD loves me!!!"
