Yummy....Leftover Success!



1 onion, chopped and sautéed in 1/3 cup butter;
slice and add undercooked carrots from Sunday's crock pot roast;
combine 1/2 cup flour-1/2 tsp salt-1/4 tsp pepper-1/4 tsp paprika; stir into carrots and onion until blended. Stir in 2 and 1/2 cups chicken broth and 1/2 cup milk. Cook and stir until slightly thickened and bubbly. Stir in chopped up leftover turkey and undercooked potatoes from Sunday's crock pot roast. Keep warm. Stir up Sage Biscuits: 2 cups flour, 2 t. baking powder, 1 t. salt, 1 1/2 t. sage; work in 1/3 cup oil, and stir in up to 2/3 cups milk till all is moistened. Knead gently 8- 10 times, press into 8" round, cut into 6-8 wedges and place on top of turkey mixture. Bake, uncovered for 30 min. or until biscuits are browned!

Not only did this turn out pleasing to the eye and palate-- but
on his way in, Ron invited the neighbor for lunch! Love it when it works out like that! :)

The Unassuming Deer Slayer






Yes, that is Anna holding a muzzleloader. And yes, that is her kneeling by the doe she just shot.
And yes, she is smiling.
And so is Luke.

Cousin Reunion!






My brother had a high school class reunion in town Saturday night, I think something like his 10th ;) He and his wife dropped their tribe off at our house, donned their evening attire and headed for the Country Club!
Little did they know the Real Party was happening at our house!

Love You Guys!



"A sentence from Psalm 101 has been both challenging and convicting for me: 'I will walk in my house with blameless heart' (Psalm 101-2, NIV). When God speaks to me about being more loving, this verse reminds me to make application in my family first—and then to others. It forces me to ask, 'Am I more spiritual, more loving, or more fun somewhere else? Who gets my best—my family or others?'"
-- Jean Fleming


I read this at the bottom of an email I received this morning and just had to share it.

Big Day for Mia!

A beautiful day for a ride........

Mia suspects we took a wrong turn!

Just a little 'pinch' and it will be all over!

Empathetic bystanders!
