Emily’s Chicken Tortilla Soup recipe I got when last November, I had a long weekend in Denver… my good friend Emily lives there. Had such a nice visit and even got to go to a Bronco’s game! (and they WON!! that’s always more exciting, right!!) While we were there Em made this amazing Chicken Tortilla Soup. ( I helped a little) I had to blog it for you all to see and I ‘ll throw in a few pic’s from our trip! Thanks to Em and Rob for showing me such a good time : )

[…] remember her Chicken Tortilla Soup that was SO good?!?! Well, last week she text me this recipe saying I’d have to make […]
Lori… It was so much fun! Drew's first pro game! Our friends hooked us up with the tickets (they have season tix this year!) They're having such a good season now… hope they keep it up!
Okay, My Husband, Glenn has been a Bronco's fan since he was a little tyke. He has always dreamed of going to see a Broncos's game in Denver. The tickets almost seem impossible to get. He has a sister that lives in Denver. He saw the Broncos play the Arizona Cardinals play in Arizona. Not like seeing them play in their home field. 🙂
