Well hello Family! It has been a while since I have written anything but I hope this blog turns in to many! It is amazing how we get so sidetracked in this thing called life. We made our first video the other day and we are hoping to continue with that as well. So we won't only be blogging but vlogging as well. A year or 2 ago I had a dream. That dream was to be able to reach out to people all over the nation with our stories, recipes, crafts and to be able to do this working side by side with my Daughters. We took off with all sorts of dreams and plans but shortly after it seemed everything was falling apart. Nobody had time, everyone was busy and we really didn't think about it too much. Well about a week ago this dream was given back to me, you see there is a plan for my life, there is a plan for your life unfortunately we get easily distracted. Sometimes it's money, sometimes it's things but if you have something buried down deep inside of you that you want to achieve it doesn't matter the distraction that dream will come back to you. Grab it by the reigns and give it everything you've got to make it too fruition! Don't wait another day! Put that dream on the front burner! A wise man once said.. If you can imagine it you can achieve it! If you can dream it you can become it! Ok so now I will get back to the recipe..I don't know if I needed to hear that or I just got somebody stirred up because they have a dream waiting to come out! So anyway here is the recipe for my Backyard BBQ In A Jar.. 4 oz grilled or sauteed chicken breast 1 Tbsp BBQ sauce (I like Sweet Baby Rays Sweet & Spicy) 1 Tbsp Light Ranch 1/2 ear cooked corn on the cob (kernels cut off) 1/2 cup cherry tomatoes 2 cups of lettuce Put in your sauce and dressing. Always layer sauces first so your lettuce doesn't get wilted. Next goes your chicken, tomatoes,corn and then your lettuce (in that order) If you want to see step by step instructions click here to visit our youtube channel and you can click on that or go to our Facebook and it will be there as well. Anyway this is what your jar will look like. I used my Fitness Pal app to get some calorie counts and this is what I have. 334 calories, 24 carbs, 10 grams of fat and 26 grams of protein.

Attention parents! If you haven't read this book you are seriously missing some amazing tools that could be added to your parenting tool belt. 8 simple tools for raising great kids by Dr. Todd Cartmell a clinical child psychologist and author.
As a gentle parent I am always weary of parenting books, as I've come across so many that clash with my parenting style, but I was pleasantly surprised as I read through and each and every tip was presented as a gentle non discipline tool that even the gentlest of parents could use without betraying their beliefs. Using the 8 simple tools written in the pages of this book you will have a pocket full of tools to use in almost every parenting situation that should arrive. With only a few pages about faith this is a great tool kit for any parents, not just Christians. This has been one of the best tools I've been able to add to my parenting arsenal. Chapters are short yet informative which allows parents to breeze through the book during nap times or dare I even say bathroom breaks. Dr.Cartmell breaks down each tool into easy to understand stories and follows them up with tips and things to consider which allows the reader to put themselves and their family into the tool house and easily remember these tools when they are needed. Be sure to visit: 8simpletools.com to find quizzes and shareable tips from the book.
