Little Helper

My mom and I made hard-tack candy on Saturday and Chloe was a good helper. First, she modeled Grandma B's hat:


She stayed busy 'mixing' and playing with cups and bowls on the floor while we made our candy. At the end, she got to help clean up...it's safe to say that she loves powdered sugar!



Chloe also helped us set up the tree. She helped Dad with the lights:


and helped put some ornaments on ~ can you spy the gold star, clothes-pin Santa, square candle, and white cross? That was the perfect spot for every ornament Chloe picked. :)

This little helper did not pose well for me on Sunday before church.....but I had to show you her cute penguin dress and new purple shoes! :)

Thanksgiving Turkey

My brother-in-law raises turkeys, and we had one on Thanksgiving this year! It was a 31 pound turkey and took up a lot of space in my refrigerator for a few days before the holiday. I started the cooking process early so it was done by lunchtime.  Here is the turkey, barely fitting into my oven!  "the farmer and the chef" :)  

Spring has sprung?

This week has brought some strange weather! On Saturday, it was freezing while we watched Peter's baseball game - it was the "late night, under the lights" 8:00 pm game. and my toes were numb when the game was over. Then, Sunday was beautiful weather to watch soccer! April scored TWO goals in her game! We had a silent-auction at a church lunch on Sunday to raise money for the Youth Group Missions Trip. Peter bid on a cooler full of interesting flavored soda-pop....and he won! The first one he tried? Pickle Pop.  For a few years, our neighborhood has been the area of choice for a few mallard ducks to nest. The momma duck picked my neighbors' driveway this year...it seems like Spring must be coming if there are eggs!
