Aprons

I finally finished this adorable apron.It is called the Church Ladies Apron. It was fast and easy to do.

You get one side dirty, no worry----you just flip it over and you are clean again!

It has double layer pockets.

On the back of the pattern was this insert:

This apron patterns honors women everywhere who prepares and serves food in church basements and fellowship halls.

Okay the reviews are in and my family didn't really like this one. It tastes alot like Flan. The texture is like Flan also. I personally liked it with the fresh raspberries and whipping cream.

My Boys!

After my morning with Tay at school, I pick up the boys and went for a ride. Max loved Gold Fish in the party car. I love those big eyes and that killer smile.

Boy what a handsome little man. Tanner and I love to listen to Mamma Mia. We need it blasting loud. Love that smile. Love you more Tanner!!!

Special Person Day

Today was Special Person Day at Taygan's school. She read to us, showed us her journal and gave a tour of her school. The tour ended at the lunch room where we were treated to orange chicken, rice and friut topped off with chocolate milk. I really love being able to share these special days with my Tay.

Austin caught a long pass and then caught the ball for an extra point. The score was 19 to 12. It was fun to watch. It was cold and windy but that's Spring ball. Way to go Austin

New Recipe for Me

So one of my New Year's resolutions is to try and fix something new or that I haven't done before. I saw a trifle done at a RS dinner and I thought I can do that, so this weekend we had some friends over to the cabin and I fixed this for dessert. It doesn't look to bad and it tasted better than it looks.

New Beginnings

Our Ward's New Beginnings was tonight. Our theme for the evening was "A Recipe for Success". Our speaker used the 8 Values and the Mutual theme to build a fruit pizza and then we all got to build our own fruit pizza. All of the girls had an apron to wear. We had two new Beehives to introduce and they recieved a new apron and a brownie mix complete with wooden spoon. What a fun evening it was!

Races in West

We went to West Yellowstone for the snowmobile races this last weekend. There are some pretty crazy people in this world, not to say anything about the crazy people that sit in their chairs and watch! The weather was great. Yes, we had to have our riding clothes on but the sun shone all day.

Here are some of the CRAZY people in this world.
