Hello okay so for our nachos we’re going to making our own chips so I have these 25 calorie tortillas and what we’re going to do is um so for yeah you can help me so for four tortillas it’s only 90 calories so you can make a lot of chips with only
With four tortillas so um what we’re going to do is take the tortillas we’re going to brush it with olive oil I’m going actually going to use avocado oil and then we’re going to bake them in the oven so let’s do that first and then we’ll get started on our chicken Okay so we’re ready we have our baking sheet here and I’m going to be using the avocado oil spray and a little bit of lemon the recipe that I saw actually calls for lime but I don’t have lime I have lemon um that’s just to give the
Chips a little bit of extra flavor cuz we’re only going to be using like a little bit of salt so we have our tortillas here and I haven’t decided how many tortillas I’m going to do but give it a little spray both sides give a little lime lemon
Juice and a little bit of salt okay then stack it so we’re going to Repeat Dan so in order to keep track I’m just going to count how many chips each tortilla makes so eight chips is 25 calories so that’s how we’re going to count that Okay we okay so here are our chips and we’re going to put them in the oven on 400° for about 15
Minutes okay so the chips are done I actually forgot that these are a thinner tortilla so they really only Take 5 minutes so this is how they came out they’re actually pretty good they got a great crunch tastes like a regular tortilla chip just less salt less tortilla I’m cooking the chicken
Now and then we’re going to assemble and eat so here are our chicken nachos he has tortilla chips grilled chicken tomatoes onion um jalapeno lettuce and cilantro Good morning y’all so I made my coffee this morning and took my time getting ready had my devotional all that good stuff and I plan to go do a workout at 11: a hit workout and I was just chilling and lost track of time and now I’m late so we’re

Movies um one of the benefits of bringing or traveling with our parents on Family Vacation is that we get to sneak away for a little bit of time um you guys know we are here for a week and when you’re traveling with kids you’re still cooking you’re still cleaning
Grabbing snacks doing everything for them that you would do for them at home so as a parent you don’t really get a vacation like o and then you have to remind the kids that part of vacation is relaxation so like Ken he wants to do things all day
Every day um you know which is fun and this Resort has a lot of fun things for the kids to do so um like this morning um kened and my mom went to the movies um they have a lot of different things on the schedule for the kids to
Make you guys saw we did Coco with Santa um so a lot of fun things already here planned at the resort but it’s also nice to be able to break it’s also nice to be able to break away for a second so we are about to go

Pancakes he got chocolate chips syrup and whipped cream and he is so hyper you guys he doesn’t normally consume that much sugar all at once like he likes chocolate think the only kind of candy he really likes is Hershey’s and Reese’s and he also likes chocolate ice cream
But on a regular basis he doesn’t eat candy and like stuff like super sweet like that he has syrup on like his um pancakes or waffles or whatever but we don’t drown it in syrup but um today he had it all I was like you’re on vacation
You know live a little y’all he is bouncing from wall to wall I had to go I was going to bring him with me because my husband is working but I set him up I have all his snacks I’m like you’re drinking water for the rest of the day
No juice um so and he got apples banan some chips and he’s chilling at the hotel you’re going to watch movies and stuff while my husband works and we are at the mall because I have to pick up a couple more um Christmas gifts so I’m
Going try to be out of here by the time my husband is finished with his client um which is in a couple hours so let’s get in here see what we can find and get on I did my shopping now we’re back at the pool today I’m actually going to get in
The pool is heated and it’s about like 74 75° so it’s not too bad so about to get in look at my Boys so Cute Hi how are you good uh I’ll do the Chardon thank you hey guys we are back from the pool and we’re about to make our what is it gingerbread house yes we’re about to do our gingerbread house and then we’re going to do the cookies
I’ve never used this brand before so I’m interested to see Mom I want to open it okay go ahead never used this brand before so I’m interested to see how it holds up but you have to be very gentle with it cuz we don’t want it to break
Yeah I know we don’t want the chick wrap the what the chick okay I’m going to pull it out that’s what I name that’s what I name the whole thing okay so we have the little candies and the cookies hold on we also have cookies don’t forget the cookies yes
So I purchased a jar of um icing because the icing that they provide seems to never stick well enough so we’re going to use where did you put the box I we need to copy the Box okay this is the icing that they provide got marshmallows we have
Sprinkles and more sprinkles so I’m going to grab a paper plate so we’re going to use Ken I mean Bryson’s little plate to put the candies in so both of our whatever PE so that we can keep everything um web separate so here you want to pour this in yeah pour it in
Here here let me help you open the hold on let me open it up a little bit more hold on let me open it up a little bit more we’re going to do this you have to listen Okay pour this one [Applause] here they’re all in one big grp pour
That oh there’s one more in there come on get that okay and then pour that one in there and we’re going to put the marshmallows in the same but on this [Applause] side very good and then the last thing we got is the sprinkles so we’ll put the sprinkles in
There now we have everything in its own little section so we had to warm up the icing just by moving it in our hands can I I do it that’s funny okay so we got our things on there so let’s see if the sides stick oh they’re going to be so
Delicious I can’t wait to I wait where are we going to put the gingerbread house again on the counter see this icing m- we going to have to bust out the big boys bust out us no like the other icing no this go like this you just knock it off so we going
To try our best to put the house together and then we going to come back so I thought I had it and then it tipped over so we using the thick icing now okay o no I think a lot is working oh gosh the cookie broke how does how does
Hey a well at least we can eat let me try to get this together this going to be a broken house but we going to make it work yes yes yes yes okay she’s together see ain’t nothing a little um cocking just like in a real house just
Put a little cocking up and you be good to go that’s what it’s called right the box has the box has okay guys we’re looking good we got the house up I had to do a little repair work on the side but it’s looking good so now we’re going to put
Our roof on L it on thick baby that’s the the um the key to this is just laying it on thick so we’re going to Mama how about put it on it’s working so far look at that okay uhhuh uhhuh go Mommy go Mommy okay so this is how our
House is looking so far it’s standing so that’s the most important thing the icing that came with the box is dripping all over the place and it’s not breaking right Kindra son if you haven’t knew it oh my gosh my so I’m going to put some icing
On that side and he’s going to going to continue to decorate are you going to do all red now I’m going to do some some different colors and I’m going to do some some red but the most but the most no it’s red see it’s
Red it looks like it got mixed so I will say I do recommend this brand of the actual house because even though it broke I could still piece it back together bre uhhuh with the uh the decorators fell off as long as you get the real icing
You get to go mhm even though know if you’re a broke yeah it looks good mom even though know it looks like real snow exactly even though if you’re a broken leg you did a good job with the drizzle too and you could do abstract you don’t got to be
Perfect it matters how the way you made it with family so before they all fall off here is our final product we did our best Kon is having fun putting all the sprinkles on that side Y it’s Raining pupcakes till Ling good we got tickle chip and we going to making a t tail Ling good every doll p on on on and cream tail lagging [Applause] Good O As we’re leaving we got a good rain it was supposed to rain like two other times and it never rained thank God it rains on the day that we leave have an hour byebye Sh W The I My
