Teaching Our Daughters to Rest

Hey you guys! (I just had to say "you guys" once more since I'll be saying "y'all" by Christmas!) 

One of the biggest honors of my blogging "career" is my guest post on Raising Homemakers this morning. In fact, Mrs. Fuentes has invited me to be a regular contributor for the site. Isn't that exciting?! I'm so thrilled to be a part of the blessing that blog is to everyone who desires to bring up girls in the ways of the Lord.


I hope you'll take a minute to check out my article. I'd love to hear your thoughts!

Homemaking Party: The Collers Are On The Move!

Welcome to the Homemaking Party! Tonight I've got some EXCELLENT news to share! My hard-working, self-sacrificing, wonderful husband has just accepted a job offer in NW Arkansas! He'll be doing software programming with a great, nationwide company. Can you imagine the fun I'm going to have going from the Pacific Northwest to the South? Ha!

We've got just a couple weeks to pack it all up and move our family of 11 over 1,800 miles across the country! It's going to be an adventure, for sure---and I'm SO looking forward to it!

It's short and sweet tonight---I've got packing to do! I sure appreciate every one of you who faithfully links up your creative posts and leaves sweet comments to encourage me. I'm excited to share this new chapter of our lives with you!

Thanks for linking up!

Make Bake Create #31: Mac & Cheese Breakfast Casserole -- Big Family Recipe


Welcome to the Make Bake Create Party! 5 Blogs-1 party-lots of fun and creative ideas for you!

Please follow your hosts:



I had the opportunity to play around with a new macaroni and cheese recipe this past week, and came up with this unique breakfast casserole. It was a hit with all nine of my kiddos so it's probably safe for you to give it a shot too!


Mac & Cheese Breakfast Casserole -- serves 12

10 c. prepared macaroni & cheese (I used Stouffer's frozen Party Size)
1 lb. ground breakfast sausage
1/2 c. chopped parsley
1/2 c. chopped pimientos
1/2 tsp. pepper
12 eggs
3/4 c. milk

Prepare macaroni & cheese according to package directions. Meanwhile, cook sausage in a large skillet. When it's cooked through, mix in cooked mac & cheese, parsley, pimientos, and pepper. Whisk eggs and milk together in separate bowl and then combine with the mix in your skillet. Pour everything into a greased 13x9 pan and bake at 400ยบ for 50-60 minutes, or until egg mixture is set.

Follow the MBC Pinboard!
