My Kitten/Tiger

I thought Morgan was a kitten, but she informed that she was a tiger. Whatever she was she was very cute.

Running

Since I turned 34 last month I have discovered I have forgotten what I like to do. I love raising my children, teaching them, cleaning, caring for them. These are the things I love to wake up every day to do. Looking back over the 9 years that I have been a parent I have realized I have forgotten what I like to do (besides raise kids).
This next year is full of finding out what I like to do. One of these new found things that I have forgotten that I like to do is run. I use to love running. So I have rediscovered the wonderful art of having alone time and just running. I have set a major goal with this old, new found running. I am planning in the next year and a half I am going to run a marathon. My hope is to start out with a half a marathon next summer and then go from there. Wish me luck. I am on week four of training and all is going well.

Crock Pot Recipe

There of course is one more little kitten that needs to be mentioned from Halloween. We are down in Sacramento for a few days so you will just have to wait patiently for the third McNally's Halloween pictures.
I have to share this awesome and very easy recipe with you my blog friends.

Easy Chicken Crock Pot Recipe:

4-6 Chicken Breasts
2 Jars of salsa (my favorite is the mango salsa from Walmart)
2 cans of corn
1 can of black beans

Throw all of these ingredients in the crock pot. Top the ingredients with some water so the chicken does not burn. Set your crock pot on 8 hours and away you go.

I have served this with Mexican rice in tacos. I have served it with white rice. I have also piledit on top of some chips and called it nachos.

Of course whatever way you decide to serve it make sure you have some sour cream and guacamole.

Very easy and very yummy!!!
Enjoy

Spider Man

Well I had a spider in my house this year. I really don't like spiders. I had to make an exception this year because I really have grown fond of this big spider.

Little Barney

My little Logan is obsessed with Barney. Guess what he was for Halloween.

9 Years Old

My Big Girl turned nine last week. I'm so not old enough to have a nine year old. She is such a wonderful joy. I always wanted to have a girl. Morgan is like a dream come true for me. She has always allowed me to dress her and do her hair just the way I wanted to. Of course now that she is nine I can no longer do that, but at least I was able to have nine years of fun. She is a wonderful big sister that give everyday her best. I am enjoying homeschooling her this year and having her home all day long. I love this big girl. She wanted to go to the pizza place where you play games.

This is her all pink outfit that her Nana bought her. You have to love the fur vest and boots that she can hardly walk in because they have a heel.

She made her own cake with her friend. It had horses all over it and was very colorful.

November

So, I'm not committing, no not me. I thought maybe just maybe I could do the National Blog month like I did last year. I'm really not committed, but just in case I decide to commit I better post something today. So there it is.
