New Family Member, Cinco de Mayo, Sick Hubby, and BBQ Chicken Nachos...

Yes it has been entirely too long since I have been back on here. B/t getting the power back on and Tripp finally going back to work, then he was sick with the flu for 4 days then we had out of town guests for 2 nights, then brewfest with the Beckers....

And the worst part is I took next to no pictures.

Padyn got a new Puppy from her Lala


Meet "Puppy Lou" We currently had the little brown puppy who answers to "puppy" then we have George. So Lala and Padyn named Puppy Lou from Lala's dog Lou Lou and that's how Puppy Lou became a member of our family.



Then let's Celebrate "Cinco De Mayo".....

When Daddy was sick Porter was a good comforter!


He loves his Daddy more than ANYTHING in the world....Literately!

And Last but not least.... while using up Cinco leftovers we recreated one of the very best dishes.... Rosies (Mexican restaurant in Huntsville) has a BBQ chicken nachos that are soooo great!
Here is my take!


Now I left them in the broiler just a min too long. I took leftover shredded chicken and warmed it up in some BBQ sauce on the stove. Then layer a few black beans on the tortilla chips, then top with the BBQ chicken and sprinkled shredded cheddar on top. Put in the oven under broiler just until the cheese melts.
Serve with guac, sour cream and salsa!
You will LOVE this quick snack for a Saturday afternoon or serve with fruit and rice and you could even have it for dinner.
