Dawson started Mother’s Day Out, and we couldn’t have been prouder of him. He was such a little man. He hugged us and kissed us and sent us on our way. The teacher’s said he did so good, played well with the other kids, and used the potty. They say he is very well mannered. He fills my heart full!! I am so proud of him. He is only going 9-1…on Tues. and Thurs……..but seems like all day, everyday.
I have cooked this recipe three times for my family, and we LOVE it. I got it from www.southernplate.com…love this site! Try it…I know you will enjoy it as much as we have.
Country Casserole
2 cups small shell pasta, cooked and drained
3 cups frozen mixed vegetables, cooked and drained
2 cups shredded cheddar, divided
One can French fried onions, divided
2 cups shredded cooked chicken (can use canned chicken)
1 can cream of chicken soup
¼ cup milk
1 tsp pepper
1 tsp garlic powder
½ tsp salt
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Combine everything in a large bowl, reserving half of the cheese and half of the onions for topping later. Spoon into 9×13 casserole dish. Bake for twenty five minutes. Top with remaining onions and cheese, bake until cheese is melted, about five minutes more.
Freezing options: Instead of freezing this in your casserole dish, simply spoon it into a gallon ziploc bag. Lay the bag flat so that it will thaw out quicker and place it in your freezer. On the day you want it, take it out the night before and refrigerate or place in fridge that morning.
If you forget to do all of this, no sweat! Just microwave the bag until it thaws just a bit, pour into your casserole, and bake!
To bake a casserole that is still frozen, simply place in the oven while the oven preheats. This allows the casserole to thaw quickly and then bake to perfection!
We had the best time at Disney World this past weekend!! Here is just a glimpse of the fun.

The first night we got to enjoy Mickey’s
Not So Scary Halloween Party. Brinkley and Dawson got to dress up and go trick or treating. They got lots of candy. Dawson got to see some of his favorite characters…WOODY, Jessie, & Bulleye!! And Brinkley got to ride some rides. She loved all the rides!!
Brinkley lost her first tooth last night. Technically, she didn’t lose it…she twisted it until she got it out. She was so excited, she fell asleep within 10 minutes. She didn’t even get a chance to place it under her pillow for the tooth fairy. However, the tooth fairy left her a note congratulating her and reminding her to place it under her pillow for a special surprise.
