January

Two things worth recording in January was our Christmas Present to our neighbor from 2009, I'm glad she finally redeemed it, to go to the Medieval Tournament. The food was fine, not great. The program was good, just a little too long, and more intense than either Chris or I thought it would be. We were cheering for the white and black knight who lost. Spencer got scared and ended up sitting on Chris' lap and Jared was so in to it his little arms were bent at the elbow and every time the knights would go in for a jab or whatever his little hand would come up and just shake, he was totally into it. I wish I had a video of it but I will remember it forver.
The next thing was my little sister and her husband came out! What a treat! It wasn't for a long time but we squeezed in as much as we could, one being the Museum and Science and Industry we love this place.While there we explored a new part of the museum we hadn't yet set foot in. This section dealt with the body and one activity you competed against someone to see who could relax their minds the most. Camille and Mike did it first and Camille whooped him and then Jared and Spencer tried it out. They were so cute and they drew a crowd. Lots of pictures were being taken and only a few from my camera.Jared was the winner.Mike and Camille watching the boys in action. Everyone had this expression. They really did look cute.

I always LOVE it when family comes. Wish it could be more often. I'll take it when I can.

Friday Night Fun


We had a real treat this past Friday of having some friends of ours (Joy and Johnny) bring over their equipment to make homemade pasta!

They made A LOT of pasta and Jared was there cranking up until they last "brick". Joy later said she felt like it was child labor but he didn't mind a bit! Not only was it fun to watch/make (I really did nothing but watch), but it was delicious! We ate soooo much and surprised ourselves.

I was able to contribute a little to the dinner by making a yummy salad that I got from a friend. (It has baby arugula, apples, bacon, cranberries, and baked nuts with a citrus dressing, YUM!) I also had beginners luck in making my first homemade angel food cake. Jared had fun with this as well and loved saying angel cake. Here's my only evidence of making/having angel food cake:

Too much fun all the way around. Great company, great food, and good fun!
