Out with the old.. In with the new!

So Dane and I finally sold my old car from my teenage years. It was my very first car ever. It was sad to see it go but im thankful to get rid of it! My 2000 Chevy Cavalier!
Because this car is older and obviously not a family friendly car we got a upgrade to this: Our new beautiful 2007 Toyota Corolla. If you cant tell a MUCH better car! :) We love it!!
We also said good bye to our very old, very heavy couch... and well lets face it... is very ugly as well. 
And we were able to upgrade to this BEAUTIFUL sectional/couch that i am absolutely in love with!
We are also saying good bye to our current house! We love living here but its too expensive, unfortunately, and we are ready to start a new chapter!
We also said goodbye to our sweet adorable (chocolate lab mix) puppy Apollo because we are moving into an apartment! We loved that dog so much but we are glad he went to a good home. I wish we didn't have to say goodbye! :( Adilyn LOVED that dog so much. We all really miss him!

We are moving at the end of this month to Provo and cant wait to get into our new place! We fell in love with it as soon as we walked in and we couldnt be more happy about our new soon to be home. We are sad to say goodbye to the things we sold and replaced but we couldn't be happier starting the new year "fresh" and beginning our new chapter in 2012!

My Little Monkeys! :)

So Dane and I have taught Adilyn how to do the "Monkey" face and she does it perfectly! lol It is seriously the cutest thing i have ever seen! 





I'm pretty sure this is the cutest picture EVER!

Don't be deceived by the title of this recipe. This is a delicious blend of sweet & spicy and is also surprisingly pretty healthy! I made up this Recipe and I hope you all enjoy it as much as me & my family did!

  • 1 lb Ground Turkey
  • 2 cups White Rice
  • 1 1/2 - 2 cups Santa Barbara Mango, Peach Salsa
  • 1 can Re-fried Beans
  • 1 cup Frozen Corn (Frozen corn tastes the best but if you do not have it then add 1 can Corn)
  • 1/4 cup Sour Cream
  • 1 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 2 teaspoons chili powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon seasoning salt
  • dash of pepper
  • 6 Large Whole Wheat Tortillas
  • 1 cup Mexican blend cheese
  • 1/2 cup crushed tortilla chips (optional)

Directions

Preheat Oven to 350. Place rice in rice cooker. Cook. While rice is cooking place ground turkey in frying pan. While cooking add ground cumin, chili powder, seasoning salt & pepper. Brown turkey. Drain. Add Mango Salsa, re-fried beans, corn & sour cream to cooked turkey. Cook on med-low heat until rice is done. When rice & turkey/mango mixture is done place even amount of rice and turkey mix on whole wheat tortilla.

Add cheese on top and then top with tortilla chips. Bake at 350 for 20 minutes. Enjoy!
