Chicken Nuggets
We had chicken nuggets for dinner tonight and they were so good!!
Chicken breast (skinless and boneless)
Bisquick
egg
salt
pepper
paprika
Parmesan cheese (the kind you sprinkle on spaghetti)
butter(3 tablespoons)
Preheat oven to 450
Cut the chicken into chunks. In a gallon zip lock bag mix all dry ingredients. Beat eggs (I used 2).
On a cookie sheet put some tinfoil and spray with Pam.
Dip chicken into egg and then put into dry ingredients and than put them on the cookie sheet. When the cookie sheet in full put into oven for 13-15 minutes. Than I turn over chicken and cook for another 8 minutes and than I turn the broiler on for about 5 minutes.
The eat them so fast and kept asking for more. We had BBQ sauce, ketchup, mustard and ranch dressing for dipping. Very tasty!!

I went to Wal*Mart today and while I was there I noticed backpacks. It was a lot easier to buy them with out the kids with me. They are so excited for 1st grade to start. They are set with their new backpacks and their new lunch boxes. They think it is "So cool" that they get to take a lunch to school and eat it their.
The kids told me "That you are the best mommy ever because you bought us new backpacks"!! Love that they are so easy to please with the simplest things.
Nolan's backpack is the one in the picture. Lelands is black with a little white and Paeton's is chocolate brown with pink flowers (super cute).

My Sweet Nolan
Nolan is such a thinker. The other day he says "Mom, I don't want to go on a Misson." I asked why and his response was "I can't read The Bookof Mormon." I told him not too worry when he got big enough to go on a mission, he would be able to read The Book of Mormon.
A few days later, he tells me once again "Mom, I don't want to go on a Mission." I ask him again why and he said "I don't want to spend all my money in my bunny bank." I told him that he would not spend it all and that when he got back from his mission he would have money left over. His response was "COOL!!"

Memory Tag
I visited a friends blog and she had this one hers and since I left a memory of her, I had to follow the instructions. I don't have a lot of memories from when the kids were little so this might be a good tag or a bad tag, LOL!
1. Add a comment on my blog, leave one memory that you and I had together. It doesn't matter if you knew me a little or a lot, anything you remember!
2. Next, re-post these instructions on your blog and see how many people leave a memory about you. It's actually pretty funny to see the responses.
If you leave a memory about me, I'll assume you're playing the game and I'll come to your blog and leave one about you.

Happenings
Just some fun things we have been up to lately.
Fishing: Paeton caught the biggest fish, a 3 pounder.
Taking care of our yard and house and moving back into our house.
Going to see the Circus. We won't be going next year.
The yearly Air Show. It was a lot of fun.
Trying out the new Triple Slip-n-Slide. The kids had a blast on this slide.
The 4th of July Parade. It was fun and the kids had a lot of fun gathering the candy that was thrown.
Going over to Aunt Carol's for a BBQ after the parade.
We went over to a friends house the night of the 4th for a BBQ and fireworks. We left at 11:00p and they were still shooting off fireworks. Any one that knows us, our kids are in bed at 7:00p. They were so tired and we had to get up early on Saturday for a Freedom Breakfast for our Ward.
Having friends over to play and swim.

Thinking about
Using this fabric for some curtains in our front living room.
http://www.hancockfabrics.com/product/iMainCat/3401/iSubCat/3424/iProductID/56870/56870.html
I was thinking of using this as the main fabric and maybe at the bottom and outside edge using a solid fabric. Not really sure. For those of you who seen our front room and can remember it, what do you think???

Cute outfits
My friend Michaela has an Esty shop. She makes these adorable clothes http://flickr.com/photos/14968263@N04/ . She is talented and I hope she does great with her shop. So take a look and if you know any one who might be interested pass it along. She will do custom orders for the size you need.

Realization
I have come to realize how much I miss my printer that I could just download my pictures onto so easily. I don't have it hooked up and now I have to wait for my camera to get loaded with pictures before I take it to Wal*Mart to have the pictures put on a CD. UUGGHH!! I was looking at the pictures on the camera with the kids earlier tonight and realized I have A LOT of catching up too day and hopefully soon.
