Two Breakfast Casseroles & My Best Christmas Gift !

Good Morning !

On Christmas morning we made 2 breakfast casseroles and both are amazing ! First we made The Pioneer Woman

baked French toast casserole

 

It is excellent, I used sliced Italian bread instead of a loaf ..Made the night before and kept in the fridge overnight, then baked in the morning.

For the second casserole we made bubble up breakfast casserole ..

This one I changed up and here is my recipe.

Bubble Up Breakfast Casserole

1 package Italian sausage ( not links) cooked and crumbled
1 package of bacon cooked and crumbled
1 can Grands biscuits
6 eggs
1-1/4 cup milk
1cup Colby jack cheese shredded
1 cup mozzarella shredded
salt and pepper

Heat oven to 350
Grease bottom and sides of a 9 x 11 casserole dish
Cut biscuits into quarters and lay them in bottom of pan. Top with both meats and cheese. Whisk eggs and milk , pour over top ..
Bake in 350 degree oven for 45 minutes , mine took about 8 minutes longer. Let it sit for about 5 minutes before cutting.
They ate both of these with syrup yesterday.

We had a wonderful Christmas Eve and Christmas Day ! I hope you all did too !

Santa and his reindeer :)

Pumpkin Picking 2013 and Our Fall Front Porch

 Saturday was one of my favorite days of the year ! Pumpkin Picking Day ! We pick pumpkins at the same farm we pick strawberries from .

 Saturday was their first day open for the season so we had to be there when they opened !

We got lots of white , blue and pink pumpkins... and of course the usual orange ones! Tons of gourds, and lots of dirt and sweat :) We had 3 generations of pumpkin pickers this year ! My husband, myself, my daughter, son # 2's girlfriend, son#1 , daughter-in-law,and their 2 boys. We had a great morning , but boy were we tired and dirty ! 

So many pumpkins and only so much room in the suburban ! My son and his wife and my daughter split a load.. and we gave my other sons girlfriend some of ours for in front of their apartment.

 You have to pack them in your car very strategically to get the most pumpkins :) This year we have 95 in our yard .. I know ...crazy ! Not to mention the 4 garbage bags of gourds !

 We always surround our front planting bed.. put them on the porch .. put a few in our mailbox planting bed.

 I haven't done a post on our Fall front porch yet , and tomorrow its transforming to A Halloween Porch.

 I used my Fall sign , some scarecrows, wood crates, mums and pumpkins.

 I painted the FALL sign last year on one of my old craft show shelves..They are perfectly distressed from so many years of hard use :) The other side of the board I painted the word JOY and use that on my Christmas porch :) I got the garland above the door at an estate sale last week , The same one I got the dishes for my hutch at ! It was $ 2.00 .. The tall skinny wooden scarecrow I got at a craft show this fall.. Don't mind the hoe handle on the right .. :)

 My Fall wreath was poofed and fluffed from last year.. It has gold decomesh , wired burlap ribbon , animal print wired ribbon , orange sparkly ribbon, sunflowers, copper colored leaf pics, berry pics.

 Thanks so much for stopping by ! I appreciate all your visits and nice comments ! Come back tomorrow to see my Halloween Porch ! Come follow me on Instagram , Facebook, and Pinterest ! Links in the sidebar ..
