Build-a-Bear and Pictures from Jilian's Camera

We had great time yesterday when we went to Build-A-Bear Workshop with Aunt Jerri! My sister Missy and niece, Claire came too. This was Claire's second trip to Build-A-Bear, but she was really too young her first time to enjoy it. She definitely enjoyed it this time :) She was so much fun to watch! Jilian had a great time too. She didn't take very long selecting the animal she wanted to adopt, but boy howdy, did it take time to pick out the clothing! Everything I suggested she did not like. It took Aunt Jerri's seal of approval before the final choice could be made! Here are some pictures...The little sweetheart with the big blue eyes is Claire :)


Jilian & Claire with their selections and getting "stuffed"!

Claire watching Jilian's dog getting stuffed and the dog shower!!

As I was getting these pictures off of Jilian's camera, I came across these pictures that she took at Paul and Don's birthday party. I love the one of Kristy giving Trace a kiss. The look on his face is classic "Aww Mom, cut it out!!"
Jilian is quite the photographer :)
I'm going to try to get a recipe posted this week. I'm making low-fat stuffed chicken breasts. I am making this recipe up as I go so if it flops, I will not be sharing :) Hope everyone has a great week!

  3. I don't know about that picture of Jill, she is beginning to have that Jerri perky look about her. Umh???? Is there something in the water up there in Indiana that I should know about.

  4. I think Jilian and Claire look A LOT alike! She is sooo cute. Jilian is a really great photographer. Loved the pictures of my boys and Collin's scary smile face too. :) My healthy goup dip flopped, oh well.

  7. Lori, I made the taco soup in the crock pot today and it is my new favorite soup. It was soo delicious and the boys loved it. I had a friend of Trace's over and his mom said he didn't like anything with beans but I made him eat it anyway and he did. He said, "dude, I like it!" Sheesh. The only change I made to it was draining all the beans to rid of the salt, then at the end, poured about 1 1/2 cans of water over it and put a tiny bit of cheese on top and fat free sour cream. I cannot say enough about it. It may go on our weekly menu and I liked shredding the chicken, it was fun. YUMMO! We are having Hannah over for dinner on Sat., any favorite dishes of hers that you know of?

  8. Kristy, i hadn't thought about draining the beans to cut the salt. With Jason's sodium restrictions, I had pretty much ruled this soup out but maybe I won't need to do that now. thanks for the suggestion :)
