Eggs

Colored eggs, that is. It's been many, many years since we dyed eggs at our house. We're pretty sure that Daniel and never done it before, so we spent Saturday morning coloring eggs.

We started out with some solid colored eggs. One of the kits we got was for tie-dye eggs, which we did next. They turned out really neat!

I went a grabbed a box of crayons and we all started drawing on them. Yep, mine is a Disney Cruise ship.

Happy Thanksgiving

Thanksgiving is here. Soon we'll be putting the turkey in the oven and just hanging with my family. I'm looking forward to some yummy mashed potatoes. They're my favorite. :)

Sunday afternoon we had a big Thanksgiving dinner with my mom's side of the family, so this year we get to celebrate twice. We had a great time visiting with our family from out of state that we hadn't seen in two years. There was lots of laughter, card games, hide and seek, and awesome games of Ultimate Ninja. 

Have a wonderful Thanksgiving everyone!

Sparkling Cider

I love drinking sparkling cider on holidays such as Thanksgiving and Christmas. Having it in a fancy glass makes it even more fun!

Giving Thanks

First of, I'd like to say Happy Thanksgiving to everyone out there! Families all over America will be eating  delicious dinners with their family and friends. 

Give thanks to the LORD, for he is good; his love endures forever.

My Fourth of July

Saturday my family spend the day at our friends, grandma's house. They have a small lake, where the kids rode in boats and had a good time, even though it was cold and windy out.

I made a banana cake with banana frosting to share with everyone. I also made some American flags to add to it.

The "red" turned out more like pink, and the blue wasn't as dark as I was hoping. Oh, well.

The beautiful pond in the backyard.

Daniel, already to go out in the boat.

Alina and Danielle rowed over to the island.

And of course, my dad brought his RC stuff. Here is is radio controlled jet ski.

Playing Apples to Apples.

Playing baseball, with a ketchup bottle as a bat, and a plastic lid for a ball.

Fireworks! We had quite a bit of them...

And last, but not least, FIREWORKS! :D

Independence Day!

 Have a great 4th, everyone!
