Easy Crock-Pot Potato Soup

My kids are still not fans of soup. I wish they were, because I love all the crock-pot recipes for soup. Throw it all in and when you get home it's DONE! Now that is the kind of cooking I love (sometimes). I made this easy crock-pot potato soup and they actually ate it. Happy Mama!
