Pup and the Chickens!
Well, I finally got brave enough to see what pup would do with the chickens...and to my surprise, as long as I'm there with her to keep her attention she's fine with them...she does like to chase them a bit...I think it's a fun game for her. But she's never harmed one so that's made life easier on us.
And yet more yummy food
So I have this dear friend who is like an adopted grandma to the kids...she was Ben's sunbeam teacher years ago and been like part of the family ever since. Her birthday was in Sept. and I wanted to do some thing special for her...and I found out her favorite dessert is Coconut Cream Pie...since it's one of Brandon's too, I made two pies...one for her and her hubby and one for us. It was sooooo delicious.
THE TEA PARTY!!!
Back in September the Boys went on a Father Son Campout...so me and the girls had a girls night and my friend Julie came and talked us into having a Tea Party...which I've been meaning to do for like a year or so...My Aunt Norma gave us this adorable tea set and aside from the kids filling it with water, we'd never put it to good use...since we don't drink tea...we had a Tang Party...and boy was it a party. We had the time of our lives...I'll post some vidoes of what Tang will do late at night accompanied with sugar and candy...beware!!!
Grandparent Day at Kindergarten!
 |
| I videotaped most of Asher's program...I never went to the other 3 kids' programs...figured I'd better go get a look-see at the last one...glad I did...it was cute. |
 |
| We were lucky to have Grandma Gayle some share a snack with Asher and see his program. |
 |
| Grandma Gayle asked what Asher wanted for his snack he only asked for an apple and fruitsnack and chocolate milk. Grandma brought caramel too...she knew what he'd like...Thanks Grandma Gayle |
Apple Donut Muffins??????!!!!!!!
Ok so awhile ago we made caramel apples and took some to a neighbors and it was delicious...but because we took it with us...I cut up way too many apples and put them in water...a few days later they apples had turned a little brown and the kids wouldn't eat them...but I didn't want to throw them out or put them out to the chickens so I told Asher he could help me make muffins out of them...he didn't want muffins...he wanted donuts like he had at the RED BARN...apple donuts...so I said, let's make apple donut muffins...he agreed...and here they are...No Apple Donut is complete without some sprinkles...and they were de-lish.
It's all Peary Beautiful
| Again sooooo sorry about the excessive number of photos...well, I guess I'm not too sorry or I wouldn't have put them in...and maybe I should start a blog just about food...it seems that's what interests me most :) ha ha ha...well, it is the staple of life and it is beautiful. This is the first year I ever canned pears or made pear jam or pearbutter...which is divine...I have to reccommend it to anyone...and it's great not wasting the peelings when you can the pears. |
Peaches and more peaches
Okay so I have to admit...I'm really having fun playing with my camera...it makes some of the most tedious and boring things seem like beautiful works of art...I know I get a little obsessive over things...and I couldn't pick a few favorites...so I put in a bunch...sorry for the large quantities of pictures.
