So sorry about the fuzziness of this photo, but I wanted to share how pretty my mother-in-law looks with her new Living Locket from Origami Owl. I loved personalizing it for her, and she was very excited when she received it. Living Lockets make great gifts – go check them out! Fuzzy picture or no – isn’t my mother-in-law beautiful!?
We’ll be getting back into a school routine this week, which I am very excited about! We traveled a lot over Christmas break, so getting back into my kitchen and re-grouping with my family here at home feels wonderful.
We had two weeks off from hosting High School Huddle, and that starts back up again tonight too. I’m so excited to fill my living room with so many awesome teens tonight. (And the Bbq Chicken smells pretty good right now, if I do say so myself…)

What is “beef garden casserole”?
It’s a lot like my Shepherd’s Pie recipe (https://www.heavenlyhomemakers.com/shepherds-pie), but without the mashed potatoes, and with cheese on top. :)
I was wondering the exact same thing! :)
I see you served baked potatoes to your high school huddle group. I wanted to tell you that I used your tip last night about baking potatoes in a roaster pan and they turned out great. We had a family of 5 as guests along with our family of six so I needed a bigger quantity than I usually cook. Thanks for all your great tips.
You’re hair looks completely fabulous Laura! :)
Aw you’re too sweet. :) Hope you’re doing well and had a great Christmas!
Ashley’s right about your hair. You’re right about your mother-in-law. :-)
:) Miss you.
