Father's Day!

Happy Father's Day! Chris was off, and some of his Sunday meetings were canceled, so he actually got to sleep in. (That was a rare and unusual gift indeed!) The girls and I made him breakfast in bed (French Toast), and gave him some beautiful art work and some small gifts. (Two ties. Boring yes, but also essential at both church and the clinic.) We had a nice Father's Day together, and finished it out with FHE and Raspberry Pie. (Thank you Nana for the amazing recipe!)

St. Patrick's Day!


On St. Patrick's Day morning, the girls awoke to find the milk had been turned green! At our house, a Leprechaun pays a visit and turns our milk green. He also leaves candy, and you can tell where he has walked because there is a golden glitter trail left throughout the house. (Very fun to look at, not so easy to clean up...)








This year we started a new St. Patrick's Day tradition. For dinner, we ate green eggs and ham. As we were eating, we thought of 'That Sam I Am', and decided to read Green Eggs and Ham while we ate them. Thank you Dr. Seuss! We also ate Baked Oatmeal cooked and served with our green milk. (Morgan declared that the green milk looks odd, but it tastes just the same.)
