Mexican Salad

This is a recipe my mom came up with. Josh isn't a big fan of salad. He says it isn't very filling, but this is one salad he LOVES.

3 cooked chicken breasts, diced and seasoned with fajita seasoning
1 head of Romaine lettuce, torn into pieces
1 avocado, diced
1 can kidney beans, drained and rinsed
1 (8 oz) package cheddar cheese, diced
1 small can sliced olives
2 green onions, chopped
1 tomato, diced
1 green bell pepper, diced
1 bag Fritos
cilantro, chopped


Toss all ingredients, except the Fritos and cilantro, in a large bowl. Serve with salsa, ranch dressing, sour cream or any other dressings you desire. Top with Fritos and cilantro.

Kacie's Wedding

This past weekend I flew out to North Carolina for my best friend Kacie's wedding. Kacie and I have know each other since 3rd grade and she was my maid of honor at my wedding. The ceremony was beautiful and I was glad I was able to make the trip to share the special day with her.

This is where they had their reception

20 Week Ultrasound Pictures

It's been a couple of weeks since the ultrasound, but we just got around to scanning these into the computer. Here are a few of the pictures we were able to get.

Dresser/Changing Table

Josh spent part of last week building a dresser/changing table to go in the baby's room. Luckily this project was more simple than the crib and it only took him a few days to get it put together.

Treehouse Ladder

Josh went up to his parents' this weekend and, with the assistance of his father, made a ladder for the treehouse he had built for the neighbor. He anchored it into the ground and securely attached it to the base of the treehouse to make sure the ladder was stable. Apparently everyone loved the ladder just as much as they loved the treehouse.
