Sunday Fun

On Sundays while Brian is at church for 8 hours, we get a little goofy waiting for him to come home. 
We do dress up. Here is our dress up Queen!! Don't you just love her big red shoes? Every time I turn around she has on a new outfit. 
Kirsten helped me make these pretzel haystacks. They were so yummy. She is our little Chocolate Queen. 
You may wonder where Lindsey is? Well she is reading Harry Potter of course.

Lindsey's new obsession

So, I know that everyone has read Harry Potter by now. Lindsey started reading it sometime last year while in 3rd grade. She just lost interest and only read a chapter or two. Well, she started Harry Potter again and will not put it down. Every time I look for that girl she is reading somewhere. This is where I found her last week. She sat like that for about an hour. 

This is how I found her today. She is now on #5. They have what is called Accelerated Reader here in Georgia or AR. At the end of every book they take a test on the computer. Lindsey has been getting all A's on these Harry Potter books. We are so happy that she loves to read.

Where have I been?

We have been so busy lately. I think that this is the longest that I have gone with out updating our blog.  Today I hosted a lunch group (culinary club) for the women of my ward. The director said that about 12 people usually show up. So I planned for a small group. We had almost 30  women plus kids show up. Talk about crazy. It was a lot of fun and we had tons of great food. So much for cleaning my house.  
I am a picture person, so I have no reason to post a picture of Lauren. I just think she is cute and this is the most recent picture that I have taken. She is almost three now and she is keeping me very very busy. She is a very particular little girl.  Aren't they all? Her new thing is that she won't wear socks.  It has been in the 20's and 30's all week and she doesn't care. She has to wear flip flops or crocs.
