Changes

It does not seem like much is going on. But when I look back at the last few weeks there has been some changes. Jon has lost some weight and is still losing weight! I got a different position at work and that starts tomorrow. It will be in the mortgage department. I am excited and nervous! I worked my last Saturday yesterday and now I will have Saturday's off with Jon. Jon got a brand new work van so he moved out of his old one. That took about a week. I am very happy he has a new van because the gas gauge in the old one did not work. He would run out of gas often and some times I would have to go bring him gas. As far as other changes not too much is different. We had a great Easter weekend with both of our families. I will probably need to go on the treadmill everyday this week because of all of the candy we have! Thanks for stopping by. I will try to get some pictures in the next post or two!

Parmesan Chicken

I shop at a Maceys Grocery store near my house and each week they have a dinner with the ingredients to purchase. I decided to give this one a try and Jon and I loved it. We will make it again soon I am sure. The ingredients are:
2 lbs Fresh Boneless Skinless Chicken Breasts
15 Oz Bread Crumbs
5 Oz Bel Gioioso Grated Parmesan Cheese
10.75 Oz Campbell's Cream of Chick Soup
Oregano
Garlic Powder
Pepper
Milk
Paprika (I didn't use this because I did not have any and it was good without)

First preheat oven to 400 degrees
Then you combine 1/2 cup breadcrumbs, 2 Tablespoons Parmesan cheese, 1/4 teaspoon oregano, 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper in a bowl.
Roll the chicken in the mixture
Arrange the chicken in a 2 quart shallow baking dish
Bake for 20 minutes
Turn chicken and bake another 20 minutes
Blend 1 can cream of chicken soup and 1/2 cup milk and pour over chicken


Sprinkle with paprika and remaining Parmesan cheese

Bake another 20 minutes or until done






We had some vegetables but they didn't not get done in time. We also had left overs and they reheat very well. Hope you enjoy! If you try it let me know what you think! Thanks for stopping by!

Happy Birthday.... to me!

Tuesday was my Birthday and it was a lot of fun! My mom came over in the morning and then we met Cami's family and Jon at Cafe Rio. It was yummy! And a lot of fun! Then my Mom, Cami, and I went to TJ Maxx and looked around for awhile. My Mom and I also made a craft. I then went home and Jon and I went to Ruby River for dinner. I love that place! After dinner Jon gave me some of my presents. He gave me a camera, a 16 gig sd card and a cute pink case. (Some of my presents did not get here until Wednesday so I opened them on Thursday.) Jon's parents came over and gave me a present too! My neighbor also came over and gave me a cute Easter decoration. It was a great birthday and on Sunday I get to go over to my parents to get more presents. I can't wait! Here are some pictures! Thanks for stopping by!

Decorations

I put my Easter decorations out last week and now I am ready for spring. I can see some tulips coming up in my yard and it makes me very excited! I am ready for green trees, green grass, and pretty flowers. I also went to make and take and bought a table topper. It is all black and is about 3 feet long. Each month I will decorate it cute. I have pictures of how it is this month. I decorated some candles I bought a while ago and I think they turned out great! Here are some pictures of the table topper with the decorated candles and some other pictures of my Easter decorations! Now all I need is no more snow!

Enjoy the pictures! Thanks for stopping by!

Leaves

Jon and I finally did our fall chores of raking our leaves. Jon's work was slow so while he waited for more jobs he went out and started raking the leaves on the side of the house. He got that finished and went to the back yard. He got a lot done. I got off work and he was still working on it so I went and helped him finish. We filled about 10 of the extra large yard bags full of leaves. Our yard looks a lot better but still needs so much work. It was fun being able to spend time together working in the yard and I know we will have countless hours ahead working in the yard together. It was such a beautiful day and I am way excited for summer weather! Now I need to get my Easter up so I can enjoy spring time! I will have to post some pictures when I get it done! Thanks for stopping by!

Wedding

My brother got married last Thursday. It was very beautiful! I am very excited for him and his wife! It was a great day. They got married in the Bountiful temple and then had a luncheon at a place in Bountiful. Their reception was in a church in Roy. It was very pretty. It was a great day and they seemed to really enjoy it. I have been pondering on my wedding day and how wonderful it was. It was busy but a lot of fun! Here are a couple of pictures from my wedding. (I don't have any of my brothers or I would post them)

WRECK!

So I was in a wreck on Saturday morning on my way to work. I was driving to work and about 2 minutes away when I got hit. I was in the left turn lane waiting for the light to turn green when all of a sudden a car turns left into my lane instead of the lane next to me. I looked at the guy in the car and he was looking down so I slammed on my horn and he looked up, he swerved to miss me but still clipped the left corner of my bumper. Thank heaven he did not hit me head on! He waited to see my reaction so I jumped out of my car to look at the damage. He asked if there was any damage and I said yes. He asked if he could give me his info and not call the police. I tried calling Jon and of course he did not answer so I called my dad. My dad said to call the police. I called the police and it took 20 minutes for police officer to come. (the entire time I was blocking the turn lane) He looked at the cars and said to move them out of traffic. When we moved our cars the guy that hit me got out and started talking. I got out and waited for him to finish then the police officer came over and asked me what happened. When I told him he said it all makes sense and gave me the police report to start on. I finished my report and the police officer said it would be a couple more minutes. When he came back he gave me a paper with the information I needed on the guy that hit me and told me I could go. He then said that the guy that hit me was going to be arrested for warrants and driving on a suspended license. I am glad the car he was driving was insured! We called the insurance company and have filed a claim and we are now just waiting to hear back. I hope we can get it taken care of quickly! I am so glad it was a very minor accident and no one was hurt.
Beside that my brother's wedding is this week so my mom and I are making 500 sugar cookies on Wednesday! It will be fun. I better get going!
