Super Fast and Easy Taco Soup

I am so sorry it has been so long since my last post. To my defense I have had a lot of things going on in my life. We moved into a beautiful home and have been busy getting ready for the little baby boy that will be joining out family soon. This has been one of the busiest months I can remember. That is no excuse I really need to make the time to post and update the blog. So to all my friends and family that follow the blog I promise to do better.

To celebrate the fact that I am finding some time to set down and blog I am going to post a super fast Taco Soup recipe that should help free up some time for you as well. This recipe consists of browning hamburger and dumping a bunch of cans in a pot so there is no excuses with this easy meal.

This is all you need:

1 lb. hamburger

1 package Taco Seasoning

1 can of Kidney Beans

1 can of Garbanzo Beans

1 can Italian Stewed Tomatoes

1 can of Corn

1 can of diced Green Chlies

1 can of diced Black Olives

1 Jar of Salsa

Sour Cream, Tortila Chips, and Cheese to top

Now here is the easiest soup recipe you will ever come across. Brown Hamburger, drain,and add Taco Seasoning. In a big pot mix the remaining ingredients, and do not drain any of them. Thats right just pour them all in and warm it all up.

Now add the Hamburger, warm it all up and you are done. Top your bowls of soup with Sour Cream, Chips, and Cheese. I told you it is easy, but I promise you it will taste like you were slaving away to prepare it. As always if you try this recipe let me know what you think in the comments below.

 

 

 

Our Big Surprise on The Doctors

Well it has been a long 23 weeks to keep this secret. It has definitely not been easy with a seven year old and a three year old that are so excited. Back in August we were looking for a fun and unique way to tell our family our little secret. A producer for The Doctors found my blog and reached out to me as a blind mother. He told me that he was looking for a blind mother that was expecting a baby in the near future. What an amazing coincidence it was that I was a blind expecting mother looking for an amazing way to let her friends and family know that she was having a baby. Surprise! If you watched the show you already found out we are expecting a beautiful little boy on February 2nd. You can actually see the bib that they gave us in the picture that we have been posting on the blog for the last few months. The bib is in Brandon's hand along with the little model of our little baby boy!

It was so hard to wait and tell our family. The show seamed like it was never going to get here. The longer it took for us to get an air date the harder it was to keep the secret. We are so excited to finally be able to tell everyone. I am so blessed. It feels like everything is just so perfect right now. I could not be happier.

 

This is the model of our little boy that they made at 14 weeks. That is my little three year olds hand. So the baby was just so tiny at the time we filmed the Doctors. What an amazing experience it was to be able to feel how big he was and be able to hold it. I want to thank all the cast and crew of The Doctors. It was so fun to go to Los Angeles and be on the show and meet all of you. Thank you so much!

We thought you might like to see our kids reaction to being able to hold the little baby model. This is how they got to find out that the baby was a little boy.
