Chicken N' Dumplins
MMMMMM, it's that time of year when I start thinking about making my favorite dish. You know, it's cold enough to really enjoy a nice steaming bowl of Chicken N' Dumplins! So, here is the recipe that I use for those days you just want to sit under a blanket next to a fire.
I have also started trying to think of some recipes to make and freeze part of it for when the baby comes and I don't feel like cooking. This is one of those recipes. If you've got one, send it to me!!!!
Ok, here we go...
1 large whole chicken
broth from cooked chicken
3/4 cup milk
2 small cans cream of chicken soup
4 cans (8-10 count) biscuits...not flaky
Boil chicken in large pot until tender. Salt and pepper to taste. Remove chicken to cool and de-bone. Reserve broth in pot. Add milk and soup to broth and bring to a boil on medium heat. Cut biscuits into halves and drop in boiling liquid one at a time, stirring and folding biscuit dough into liquid as they rise. Turn heat down to medium low and let biscuits cook until done. De-bone chicken and fold into dumplings until well mixed. Add salt and pepper as needed. These are best the day after you cook them. Serves 6-8

Miss Julia is 4 today!
I can't believe my kids are growing up so fast! Julia turns 4 today and I remember her birthday like it was just yesterday! Julia is our little monkey! She loves to climb all over things and do summersaults and cartwheels. She's a joy to be around and you NEVER know what will come out of her mouth! She's so funny! She's our free spirit and takes life as it comes. She loves to sing and I'm thinking maybe one day we'll get her up on stage!

Happy Birthday
WOW! 7 Years ago today it happened. Our lives changed forever. I was born into a mother, James was born into a father and our precious son, Caleb was brought into our life. We have learned so much from him in his short life. I just can't believe he is getting so big. Sure he's a normal 7 year old boy, but he's the smartest and one of the kindest kids I know. He likes star wars and video games, but also has a passion for reading and learning new things. He likes science and history (even though he really doesn't know it). He loves his sister and would do anything to protect her! He has such a tender heart and loves Jesus and I know he's going to do something GREAT one day for Him!
So,
HAPPY BIRTHDAY, CALEB! Mommy and Daddy love you so much! We are truly blessed by you every day!
