Fire in the hole!

Our favorite entertainment these days is our popcorn popper. All the kids immediately stop what they are doing when they hear it come on, climb up on the counter and yell "Fire in the hole" when it lands in the bowl. Oh the joy!

Smoothie?!?

We have a smoothie lover in the house!

Movie night

We got a wild hair to have dinner in our play room while watching a movie. We made a serious batch of nachos (don't worry I didn't forget about a vegetable) and had a fun picnic! CJ was a loose cannon during the movie & dinner, but we still enjoyed ourselves.

Greenbelt

My sis and her husband are in town for the weekend so we enjoyed a stroll on the greenbelt. All the girls loved to chase the geese and watch them fly away. They thought it was hilarious!

Snooze...

Came downstairs and happened upon this. How funny!

Tea party!

What a better time to have a tea party then in December?!? My sis-in-law's sister was getting married so we threw her a smashing tea bridal shower. It was such a fun idea! We served curry chicken tea sandwiches, lemon cookies, almond cookies, baklava, mini quiches, mini cupcakes, petit fours, fresh fruit & dip, cranberry hot tea, & 2 different herbal teas. Of course I was put in charge of making the petiti fours (PF's for short...inside joke) & mini cupcakes. It was a fun to be a little girly and just drink something from a tea cup! As a thank you for throwing the shower, Libby gave us each our own tea cup and saucer. Thanks Libby!

Temple Square

 

While we were down in Salt Lake for Thanksgiving, we were able to go to Temple Square with the whole family and see the lights. It was very cold, but the kids still loved looking at all they had! It's fun to visit the same places that I went to when I was little and share it with your own children.
