Cafe Rio Sweet Pork!

We tried this recipe for Cafe Rio's sweet pork and it tastes like the real thing:
2 lb pork roast
3 cans dr pepper (not diet)
1/4 c brown sugar
garlic salt
1/4 c water
1 can diced green chilies
3/4 -1 c red enchilada sauce
1 c brown sugar
Marinate the roast in 1 1/2 cans dr pepper and 1/4 c brown sugar for a few hours.
Drain marinade and place pork in crockpot. Mix 1/2 can dr pepper, water and garlic and pour over roast and cook 3-4 hours or until it shreds easily.
Remove shredded pork and mix together with 1/2 can dr pepper, enchilada sauce and 3/4 to 1 c brown sugar along with chilies. Add garlic salt, and salt & pepper to taste Warm in crockpot on high or on the stove. Sorry, I dont have a picture, but its so yummy!

Happy Halloween!


BE was a "mummy" for "trunk or treat" at the church, but 2 days later his mummy costume was too small........so he was a baseball player on Halloween!!

Bad 2 The Bone!

BB became Ammon's biking buddy and is practicing safe riding!

Scooter Queen!

You can take the girl out of ballet, but you can't take the ballerina out of the girl! You've heard of water ballet? This is called scooter ballet! BS was VERY serious about doing this demo for the blog! Isn't she graceful?

Scooter Ride!

At the end of his ride, BE asks for a "la-la" (nana), but what he really wanted was some of mommy's raisins!

A Great Time at the State Fair!


The dare devils of our family! Mom is glad she didn't have to go!

More Fun at the Fair!






Ammon wasn't feeling well, so we only stayed a few hours. It gave the kids a chance to go on the rides and have a treat!
