December 2011
Guess I’m becoming one of those “once a month” bloggers. December was packed with family, travel, and my favorite, Christmas cookies. Here are some highlights!
Matchy Cousins Ready for Christmas
Disneyland at Christmastime
Christmas with Jeff and Jenna
Christmas with Grani and the Newkirks
Christmas with the Boys
(the one they had been wanting and wanting!)
Christmas with the Gransee’s
(so gross, but we love him anyway!)
A Happy New Years at the Cabin
Thanksgiving 2011
What a great day! We are blessed to be so close to both sides of our families, so we had a very full day of yummy food and giving thanks. I really love Thanksgiving.
This is what happens when you try to take a picture of all the little ones at the end on the night. Not so great! Next time I’m going to try to remember to take a group shot before they are all worn out!
Salad Smoothies
The boys have been asking for smoothies every day. They call them “salad smoothies” because I put a bunch of spinach in the blender when I make them. Even Lincoln likes them!
Cucumber Sandwiches
Pretty refreshing when it is so darn hot out. My favorite rendition is a sandwich thin or bagel with garden veggie cream cheese topped with thin slices of english cucumber and a sprinkle of dill.
christmas baking day 2010
We had fun testing out my new kitchen for our annual Christmas baking day this year. No new cookie recipes to share because we made the same ones as last year. But I did try a new recipe from my mother in law for everyone to munch on while we were baking that I loved. I would describe it as a cross between caramel corn and rice crispy treats. Easy to make and highly addictive!
