Cadence's Last Dance Competition of 2011!

Cadence is dancing on Saturday, May 7th, at Lagoon three times. First is at 12:30, second at 2:00 pm and third at 2:30pm. If you are interested in going you can get spectator tickets for $10 and just go watch or if you want pay a little more and make a day out if it and ride the rides for like $50, I think. I hope to see you all there but if you can't make it she also has a year end recital on May 18th here in Moab.

Happy Birthday, Kaylee!

Tomorrow is Kaylee's 15th birthday and we are so excited to share with you a little bit about her.
Kaylee was born in Moab and is the cutest red-head we know!  She is our oldest neice, and from day one she has been creative, silly and the center of attention.
Kaylee loves to be in Moab and loves spending time at the family cabin. She is an excellent softball player and a great student, which makes us all SO proud!
Her laugh is contagious and she always has something funny to say! Thanks for being so fun to be around, Kaylee!
WE LOVE YOU!

Chicken Tamale Casserole

This recipe was introduced to me by Linda, mother-in-law extraordinaire.
It has now become a meal that Chad and I like to have a few times a month. One, because its AMAZING, two, because it is HEALTHY/Low Fat and three, because it is EASY!
You can get this recipe here.
Try it, you won't regret it!

FYI: I use green enchilada sauce instead of red and I use whole corn rather than creamed corn. I haven't tried it the original way, this was just the way Linda introduced it to me.

Twice Baked Potatoes

Recipe:
5 Lg. Russet Potatoes
10 slices of crisped/diced Bacon (thick slices are best!)
1 cup of Sour Cream
6 tbsp Butter (real butter)
1/2 cup of Milk
1 cup of shredded Cheese, divided
2-4 Tbsp of chives (depending on how much you like
Scrub and rinse potatoes well.
Grease lightly with butter or oil, and pierce with a fork two or three times.
Wrap in tin foil, and bake in a 400° oven for about 1 hour.
Remove potatoes from oven.
When cool enough to handle, split potatoes lengthwise and carefully scoop out potato into a bowl, leaving the skins intact.
Add all ingredients except for 1/2 of the cheese (you can be naughty and add all of the cheese, then some extra on top :).
Refill potato skins.
Sprinkle with other half of cheese (or additional cheese), chives and paprika, if desired.
Bake at 375° until lightly browned on top.
Makes 10 Servings, ENJOY!
