Giving to those in need!!

Adam didn't have to work today so he took Amanda out for some much needed "Daddy/Daughter" time. He is such a great dad! Adam took Amanda to the duck pond, one of our favorite activities in town. After that, they went to the mall...Adam gave Amanda some of his birthday money for her to go in search of a present to drop off for the Toys 4 Tots Christmas Drive.....she was so excited to buy a present for someone else. With the change left over, Adam told Amanda she could put it in her piggy bank when she got back home. As they were leaving the mall, there was a Salvation Army bell ringer outside....she told Adam "hold on daddy" and without hesitation, she ran over and pulled the money out of her pocket that Adam had given her for her piggy bank, placing it in the container. I am so proud of little Amanda...and her generosity to others.  We had decided earlier this year, rather than buying gifts for each other, we will be giving gifts by volunteering and giving back to others in our community...keeping the true meaning of Christmas with us throughout. I'm looking forward to these special moments, the memories we will make, that will last a lifetime, and the joy that comes from Amanda as we teach her the true meaning of giving to others!! 

I've been working hard on my website for my business Bridger Babies...I launched it a couple days ago...check it out HERE

Dinner tonight was Chicken Quesadillas...one of Adam's favorites!! Easy meal for all you moms out there: I place boneless, skinless chicken breast halves in the Crockpot and pour salsa over the top...cook on Low 6-8 hours or Hight 3-4 hours...gives the Chicken great flavor. When done cooking, remove the chicken from crockpot and shred with a fork. Then fill your tortilla with cheese and chicken and cook in skillet. We make a sour cream/salsa mixture that makes a great dipping sauce. Great taste, easy meal, that the family LOVES!
