Embroidery Machine

So I finally got an embroidery machine! I've been wanting one for a long time! It is amazing what it can do! It was a little frustrating at first trying to figure it all out and I ruined a onesie or two trying to figure out which stabilizer to use and such...but...I think I've got it down =) Here are a few pics of what I have done so far =)

Scott wanted me to do a state shirt for Ethan =)

Taco Soup Recipe

I thought I would share my taco soup recipe! It is SUPER easy to make and SO good!

Taco Soup:

1 lb ground beef--browned
1 can corn
1 can black beans
1 can kidney beans
1 can pinto beans
2 cans ro-tel (1 can spicy if you want a spicy soup)
1 package ranch dressing mix
1 package taco seasoning
2 cups water (you can add more or less depending on how soupy you want it)

Add all the ingredients in a large pot. When you add the cans of beans and corn, don't drain them, pour the juice in too. (I usually do drain the kidney beans b/c my husband doesn't like the taste of kidney beans :)
Bring the soup to a boil, then lower the heat and simmer for at least 20 min.

We put sour cream, grated cheese, and tortilla chips on top!
