Creamy Garlic Parm Chicken & Pasta. (Adapted and tweaked a bit from @amy.darley )
I used Boneless Skinless chicken tenderloins. Spray your crockpot and put them at the bottom. Then add:
1 bottle garlic parm Buffalo Wild Wings sauce (it’s a bit spicy, so you could look for a different sauce if you prefer less spice.)
6-8oz bar of cream cheese
Sun dried tomatoes (if you wish)
Fill the sauce bottle with heavy cream. Pour over chicken. Cook on low for 1.5-2 hours approximately. Be sure to check it. I’m not positive on timing. Shred when done. Stir. Add some shredded Parmesan on top.
Cook pasta of choice. Mix that in to the chicken mixture. And enjoy!! So yummy!

It was a very good day! 35 might not be so bad after all! 😁 I am grateful for all my family and friends especially! Nic made my day special. Thank you hun. @yoder_nic
Reflecting over the last year brings a lot of things to mind. Many things I don’t share online. Good and hard things. Through it all God has been so merciful and faithful. I have much to thank Him for!
And for the coming year: I have so many things I want to grow in and do better at!
Thank you all for your daily encouragement here on the Gram or in real life! Thanks for tagging along!

I don’t know why I don’t make this more often! I need to add it to my list of easy breakfasts or dinners. Or maybe a Sunday lunch? How often do you make it? Or maybe you don’t ever? I used to work at Der Dutchman in Waynesville as a teenager and we made tons of sausage gravy. We made it a bit differently there because of the large amounts we made. But I also worked at Mountain View Nursing Home as a Dietary Aide. And there, I believe, is where I learned the trick of adding flour to the sausage directly. No lumps of flour to worry about!! So easy!!
▪️ Recipe : I don’t have exact ingredients, but I’d guess about 1 lb ground sausage and 1/2 -3/4 cup flour. Add the flour in after the sausage is browned. Butter adds more flavor. Season with salt and pepper. Start adding milk little by little, stirring constantly. Add until it’s the right consistency. It does thicken up a bit after it sits. That’s it! Enjoy!

1-2 year olds are some of my favorite years. Harper has been talking so much and we’re here for it! We get the biggest kick out her repeating everything. 😍

Get Ready With Me:Sunday Morning Edition.
.
I do mine and Oaklynn’s hair. Harper might enough hair eventually , but she refuses to keep anything in her hair these days. So - we leave it. 😁
The boys do their own or Nic helps them. I usually guide their outfits a bit 😄✌🏼 Nic obviously takes care of himself. And that’s that!
I have learned that If I get up early enough and get Myself ready first, everything goes more smoothly. Er- Ahem- except this morning Harper’s matching Dress disappeared when I went to get her dressed. 🤔🫣 How?!! Anyway - Pivot!! So she wore a different dress. Instead of missing shoes- it was a missing dress. ( I did find it after we got home from church then, of course 🤣)
And somehow Sunday Mornings the time races - so generally I’m still basically running out the door. 🫠
.
We try hard not to be late- and right now Nic is song leader at church so it’s very important we stay on top of things 😄
What is the key to getting out the door early or on time for you? Any secrets to share with others?

This year has been a year of experimenting with sourdough (starting a starter from scratch), growing more familiar with it. Some failures and some wins! It’s been a fun journey! I’ve come a long way in the ‘dough’ department. I’ve been doing it more - and it really does become easier! If I can do it- you can too! It’s been a really fun challenge!
Have you been learning a new skill this year?
This year has been a year of God showing up in mighty ways in our life! It’s a humbling, but amazing experience. He is faithful in the small things, as well as the big things. Sometimes the small things don’t get my attention as easily. But this week I’ve been reminded once again of His Faithfulness and Provision in our life! So I want to say, Thank you God!
.
And I want to ask:
“Do you know my Jesus”?
He Loves you so much!!
Give your cares to Him.
Repent. Turn from your sin. (We are all sinners) Ask His forgiveness And serve him with your whole heart! He comes to live inside us and gave us the gift of the Holy Spirit to help us through our daily walk with him. He wants a relationship with us. He loves us so much that he was willing to die on the cross and shed his blood for each one of us and rise victorious from the grave! And now lives in Heaven interceding for each one of us!
The gospel is simple. He wants each one of us to one day Live in Heaven with Him! For all eternity! We only need to accept his free gift of salvation and follow Him! There’s many who will argue about the details etc. But I point you to The Bible. It’s where you’ll find the answers!
And If you don’t know where to start.. I suggest you read the Gospel of Luke. It will show you who Jesus is. ✝️ 🙏🏻 The rest of the Bible isn’t any less important, but wanted to give you a place to start. Or start with Genesis.
IN THE BEGINNING WHEN GOD CREATED THE WORLD. 🌎
It’s the inspired Word of God! But, Luke is a great book that goes about documenting the Life of Jesus when he was on earth. ❤️
God Loves You. Period.
These are the days I will remember 🎶.
The girls keep me on my toes these days. But they’re so much fun too!
I look back and try to remember the little years with my boys and it seems like a blur. 🥺 I didn’t think I’d ever forget those days. And to some extent I don’t. But They were 15 months apart. And they kept me hopping! However, I’m realizing that those days seem to fade in my memory and it honestly makes me a little anxious!
Will I remember the things I think I will? 😢 I’m trying to embrace the Moments and enjoy the different stages of the children. I think the older I get and the more Kids we’ve had, it becomes more apparent just how fast time goes! I’m scared and excited. Does that make sense? God gave us these children to raise and love and cherish. It’s a big responsibility. Most days I don’t feel capable. But with God’s help He will give Wisdom and guidance.! Prayers are always appreciated these days 😀. Do you have any insight to share with me or with others?

Just had to 😂😂 It has been a long-lasting debate that Nic and I agree to disagree on. 🤣 And many of you ladies seemed to agree with me. In all seriousness - he does turn them on to see when he’s driving. But the speed is debatable IMO. But, what’s your experience?!

M & M Bars ! A family favorite!
The main thing is - DO NOT OVERBAKE IT. These are a go-to if I need a quick, easy snack.
Combine:
2 C oatmeal
1 C. Brown sugar
1.5 C flour
1 tsp. Baking soda
1/2 tsp. Salt
1 C. Butter, melted (unsalted)
It will be crumbly. Put 3/4 of this mixture into a 9x13 cake pan. Bake at 325 for 11 min
Mix: 1 can sweetened condensed milk & 1/3 C. Peanut Butter. Pour this over the partially baked crust. Then add the toppings. Choc Chip’s, Mini m&ms. And crumble almost all of the oatmeal mixture on top. (It’s usually plenty so I don’t use it all). Pat down lightly. Put back in the oven for around 15 minutes. Check it. Enjoy!!
Happy Baking!

We lived in a half-finished state for long enough. I wasn’t sure what I wanted to put above the bed, so I used what I already had. I may change it to something bigger sometime. I also moved a plant in here from another room, and tweaked a few things. I love how it turned out! Old+New is a great way to make a space feel more personal and inviting!
I will try to link as much as I can in my LTK shop. DM or comment below for the link!
