Wow! We have a quiet week coming up! Football being officially over, for more than one reason... and basketball only in the practice mode... guess James won't be starting swimming now, will he? Guess there goes him bringing Zach home from practice for me... oh well! I am going to enjoy the quiet weeks, because I have read the basketball schedule!

So here we go...

Monday: Gourmet Chicken and Rice, (see recipe below) Green Beans, Bread

Tuesday: Beef Enchiladas, chips, salsa, salad.

Wednesday: Roast in the crock pot, potatoes, carrots, onions. Muffins

Thursday: Spaghetti w/meat. Salad. Bread

Friday: Sausage, potatoes, sour kraut, green beans.

Weekend: Chili Soup, grilled cheese. and left-overs.

I've never seen another recipe like it. We also bake ours for 3 hours at 300. See? We are very similar. ;-) I just made it last week, I love it.

MMMMMmmmm. Your house sounds delicious this week. I'm excited for football season to be over too. I'm looking forward to seeing my daughter.; November 2, 2008 at 9:02 PM
He & Me + 3 said...: Ok, you have inspired me. I am so going to start menu planning. I am sick of looking in the fridge 10minutes before dinner & drawing blank. Your meals sound delicious!; November 2, 2008 at 9:59 PM

I sure hope your James heals quickly. I'm beginning to think that I'm glad football isn't that big around here.

Ok, there's hockey too, and there's the added danger of frozen blades and rubber.

Maybe he'll take up tennis?

I keep forgetting about adding something I'll miss . . . but every day has been full of love and snuggles :); November 2, 2008 at 10:21 PM

Zach is 17. He is a junior in high school. Playing football, basketball, & running track. He is a hurting kid with a chip on his shoulder & an attitude to keep people at bay. He has a great heart under all the pain, I hurt so bad for him & desire to see God bring healing into Zach's life. I believe that God will do that, I just fear the chapters that it will take to get to that point. I told him recently he has so much talent, brains & charisma... and satan is stealing it away. Lots of prayer time going into this one... I turn to worry way too easily.

Kiahna Grace is my baby. She is 6 years old & is in first grade. Kiahna loves to help mommy, cheerleading, her dogs & cats, & riding her bike. We adopted her through private adoption at birth, also. We recently recieved a FAES diagnosis for Kiahna, which means she was exposed to drugs or alcohol while she was in the womb, causing some degree of brain damage. As we learn more about this disability life is a little uncertian once again. We are searching and praying for miracles and answers in Kiahna's life. Praising God for the ones we've seen & the ones still to come!
