Sweet Potato Chips

The other night I decided to make a new side dish, Sweet Potato Chips.  I did it on a whim and they came out ok, but I will definitely need to try it again to get it just right.  All I did was slice the sweet potatoes, place them on a baking sheet, drizzle them with extra virgin olive oil, add a dash of salt and pepper for taste, and bake on 450 degrees for 30 minutes or until crispy. The only problem I had was they never really got crispy because I used a bit too much EVOO, but they were still very tasty!

Beach Baptism

On July 17, 2011, Mr. T and I were Baptized at Ft. Desoto State Park by our church, Christ Fellowship.  Mr. T accepted Christ into his life on Feburary 27, 2011 at Christ Fellowship and we have been planning on having the baptism sometime this summer when both our parents were in town.  Well between his parents building the mountain home and my father having double knee replacement surgery we thought it was never going to happen.  So when we heard that our church was going to have a baptism at the beach we decided to jump on it.  We had such short notice we were unable to get the whole family in town but decided we would have my brother video tape it and just share that with the rest of the family.  I thought being baptized at the beach was such a neat idea considering this was the way they did it way back when! Here are a few pictures to share of our special day!
