Why Wouldn't I?

..Bring jello shots to my work party?

I was told to bring a 'treat'.  When I think of 'treat', naturally jello shots came to mind.  I have no idea why, I haven't made jello shots since college.

Margo helped out by catching some gelatin drippings with her booty.

Needless to say, I have a lot of new friends at work...

Good Taste?

Speaking of Christmas cards...

I got this text message from our friends Andy & Andie...we hadn't received theirs yet.


'Wtf? So awkward...'

Good to know someone else thought the style of our cards were cute!

Christmas Cards

Is it seriously 10 days until Christmas?  It's time for a Christmas post I think.  Maybe a sneak peak of our Christmas card? 
We had issues this year.  In the past we've always had at least one picture that we had taken the past year, and I couldn't wait to use in our card. 

See?

2007 - Our Wedding

2008 - I just loved this picture from Krista's wedding.  Even if it is a little boob-tastic.  I didn't realize how semi-inappropriate it was until I received it in the mail after I ordered it.  Don't worry I still sent it out.. sorry grandparents.

2009 - This is my all time favorite card which obviously includes my favorite people, Frank and Willie.  And my husband, I love my husband.  Pics from Coaches vs. Cancer.




Love, Tony Callie Frank & Willie



2010- Mexico Trip pics!  And we had an important addition to the family, precious love bug Marg.  Now that I look at this, we look like we belong on Ace Ventura with all the wildlife going on...

So are you really excited to see our family Christmas card this year??

Presenting the best picture I could find of 2011...

After 4 years of marriage apparently you stop taking pictures of yourselves, and focus on the animal of the house.  And forget that the past year your card had a huge star on it too...

Merry Christmas - from ALL of us.

My parents gave us an early Christmas present last night. 

Meet Rosie the Roomba.  Margo doesn't like her.

Heavenly Baked Potato Soup

Happy December!  Please make this soup soon.  Like pick up the ingrediants over your lunch break soon.

Tony and I were both super impressed with this recipe.  I might even go as far as saying it was better than Panera's baked potato soup.  Gasp, I know. 


8 cups diced potatoes

1/2 large onion, chopped
6 chicken bouillon cubes
5 cups water
1 - 10 ¾ ounce can of condensed cream of chicken soup
1 - 8 ounce package of cream cheese

Bacon, cheese, and green onions for garnish - optional

Combine potatoes, onion, water, bouillon, and chicken soup in the crock pot. Cover and cook on low for 8-10 hours or until potatoes are tender. Add cream cheese to crock pot and blend with wisk. Top with bacon and parsley or onions before serving.
Makes enough for about 6 people.  Tony and I had it for leftovers and it was even better.
