Making juiceOriginally uploaded by Chris and Jenni.
Today we made juice for the first time in a long time and sissy got to help for the first time. She was pretty excited about that, although I need to figure out how to make it a little safer for her, she’s not quite ready for the open […]

Well the person I want to praise today is, me. It’s been a long beginning of a week. My kids are sick once again (Guenna started it), with a cold and now the runs (thankfully just the kids have it!) But this too shall pass. So it’s been a somewhat slow week where chores […]

Made this last week to balance out my plate of chocolate goodies! I needed something a little lighter on my plate. So I made Peppermint Bark, it was tasty but next time I will go ahead and buy the peppermint oil to add to it, I thought it was too sweet.

I’ve been wanting to make cookies with the boys, actually Aidan has been begging me to make cookies and I’ve been putting it off. We had so much fun, it was fun showing them how […]

Okay, I’ve read my email, read most of your blogs. I have a little bit of energy today. It could have been the four hour nap from yesterday, I gave my boys sleepy time cough medicine since they do have colds and we all slept until it was time for Chris to get off work!
I’ve […]
