Easy Recipe

I thought I would give you an easy recipe. It is one of our favorites. I make it a lot to take to Grandma's for Sunday dinner, and I have made it for church dinners. I usually put it together the night before, and bake it in the morning. I actually got this recipe from my Aunt Kathy. I make it so much, I have it memorized. Cheesy Potato Casserole Ingredients 1 package frozen hash brown potatoes 1 stick of butter, melted 8 ounce package sour cream 1 can of cream of chicken soup 1 8 ounce package (2 cups) shredded Cheddar cheese Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Mix potatoes, butter, sour cream, soup, and half the cheese in a 9X13 baking dish. Top with the remaining cheese. Bake for 50 minutes to an hour uncovered. Enjoy! See how easy that is? Even a non-cook like me can do this in her sleep. Let me know if you try and how you like it.

Curly Locks

I borrowed a flat iron from my cousin Jennifer and tried it out Friday night. It took some getting used to, but once I did, the curls actually turn out pretty nice. The curls lasted the whole night, which is pretty rare with my hair. When I use a curling iron, the first curls I do usually are falling out by the time that I get to the last section of hair. I took a pic of the back of my hair before we went to the Tim Hawkins concert. Please excuse the mess on our dresser....and my silliness.

Last night, we went to see comedian Tim Hawkins in concert. It was hilarious! It was a lot of fun. We went with Carl's Dad and step mom, and brother Jason and his wife Tammy. Carl's dad actually bought all the tickets. It was part of our Christmas gift. We had a really good time. It was good to get away and just have some laughs for a couple of hours. The opening act, John Branyan was also a lot more funny than I expected him to be. We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. Here are some pics from the night. John Branyan Tim Hawkins To check out some of Tim's stuff, go to www.timhawkins.net or do a search for his name on YouTube . You will laugh til you cry, believe me.

Items On My Wish List

1. Children's Ministry Resource Bible The copy that I have actually belongs to Mom. I need to get my own copy, so that Mom can have hers again. I have seen this Bible going for about $40 on different websites. Do you know of some place that may have it a little cheaper? 2. This camera: It's a Canon PowerShot SX20 IS. It has a 20x optical zoom, image stablization, a multi-angle viewing screen, and lots of other features. It has received pretty good reviews, from what I have seen on different websites. I am waiting to see if it will go on sale anywhere like Wal-Mart of Best Buy. *UPDATE* I found this camera on www.abesofmaine.com for a lot cheaper than other places I had checked. Plus, I got free shipping. I ordered it yesterday, and it is scheduled to be delivered to my work place tomorrow. YAY! I am so excited. I can't wait to try it out! 3. A flat iron: I have a curling iron, but I have heard that a flat iron curls the hair much quicker, and that the curls last longer. Any...
