I have been on a blogging fast!

I have been on a blogging fast for a while, but I am back now. Of course lots of things has happened in these past few months. I mainly just want to brag about my dear sweet hubby! He tested for his 2nd degree black belt two weeks before Halloween. He did amazing! I have never seen him to it like this before. My father in law also tested that day too. He was getting his 4th degree. It was so fun to be there and watch! Thank you for all that came and supported Tyler and Joe!

(Here are some of the family supporters.)

I wish i could have put all the pictures on here of that day. I took over 300 though. It was so hard to choose which ones to put on.

We all went to Thriller! (minus my dad. Daniel is taking the picture.) My family loves loves it! This is our 4th or 5th year seeing it too!

Purse and Earring Party!

Too early for them.

Tyler wouldn't look at me too get a good picture.

As you can tell the parade was moving pretty fast. I couldn't even get a good picture.

Here comes Maple Mountain Martial Arts!

During the Fiesta Day Activities we also went to the Rodeo and watched some fire works but I forgot my camera on those days. :(

Summer Fun!

Tyler and I actually went on a fun date! We went to Singing In the Rain at SF high school. It was a good play, but I love the movie!! For the 4th of July we had a BBQ with Tyler's family and lit fire works that night.

Family Reunion

Well, In June we went to a family reunion in Wyoming and stayed at Tylers family cabin. It was a lot of fun! I met alot of family there, we went on four-wheeler rides, had a fire works show, and even had a rescue mission to Pocatello ID to pick up Joe and Trent (my father and brother in law) because they had a broken down car.

Look at those lips!

Couch Covers For Sale!!

Hey everyone! I am selling my couch covers that I never use. There is one for a love seat and one for a couch. I am selling them together for $30.00. They are super cute I just don't have a need for them. If you are interested leave me a comment unless you know my number call me.

Last weekend Tyler and I went to a Medieval Festival up at the state hospital. Some friends from our studio are into this Medieval stuff. They invited us to come and check it out. It was pretty fun. We got to dress up and watch some cool sward fighting and just hang out up there. Tyler said I looked like I was wearing a gaint potato sack. I fit in tough.

Guess who?

Yummy food!!!!

I made this the other night for dinner and it is SO yummy! I marinated the chicken over night and didn't put any tomatoes in it but it still tasted so good.

Foil-Pack Chicken & Artichoke Dinner

Prep Time:
10 min
Total Time:
50 min
Makes:
6 servings, one packet each
What You Need
3 cups instant white rice, uncooked
3 cups warm water
6 small boneless skinless chicken breast halves (1-1/2 lb.), 1/2 inch thick
1 can (13-3/4 oz.) artichoke hearts, drained, quartered
2 cups chopped tomatoes (about 2 large)
1/2 cup KRAFT Zesty Italian Dressing
1/4 cup pesto
Make It
PREHEAT oven to 400°F. Mix rice and water; spoon evenly onto center of each of six large sheets of heavy-duty foil. Top each with 1 chicken breast. Cover evenly with the artichokes and tomatoes, then drizzle evenly with the combined dressing and pesto.
BRING up foil sides. Double fold top and both ends to seal each packet, leaving room for heat circulation inside. Place packets in single layer in 15x10x1-inch baking pan.
BAKE 30 to 35 min. or until chicken is cooked through (170°F). Remove packets from oven; let stand 5 min. Place one packet on each of six dinner plates. Cut slits in foil with sharp knife to release steam before opening.
