CANNING! YEY!
This week I have been canning! I am so proud of myself. So far I have done corn, teriyaki sauce, strawberry jam, rotkohl and strawberries (which I will blend into smoothies later). Before I'm done, I'm hoping to do applesauce, apple pie filling, pears, and peaches. I feel like such a good little wifie. Ha Ha. I have also been doing some fruit drying which is almost as much fun as canning.

Last week's games

this is Dan playing a "minute to win it" game. The object of the game is to get the cookie from your forehead into your mouth using only facial muscles. lol enjoy

Our Great weekend

This weekend was Rilyn's birthday party. Dan and Jazmine also flew up to spend the weekend here.



Rilyn's birthday cake. This is what she ordered me to make: a blue cake with black frosting. A mermaid on top and "critters" all over. Lol

Of course we also had to have the "who is taller" debate between Dan and Ryan. The result was indecisive (hey, I don't want to get in trouble here !)

It was a great party, so great in fact that Rilyn fell asleep in her own party tent. All worn out ha ha

Our trip to L.A.

So we just got back from visiting L.A. It was so much fun. My brother lives there, so we stayed with him and had a blast. First, we helped Dan's wife Jazmine throw a birthday party for their one-year-old daughter Jade. The theme was ice cream. As a present, I made her these cute wooden alphabet blocks. She loves to play with them.






We also were able to go to six flags magic mountain. Josh has been there before, but I never have so it was exciting. We got to go on all of the best rides. It was a lot of fun. The only downside is that I got my purse stolen. I figured that might happen so I just brought a nasty old one I was going to throw away anyway and didn't put anything valuable in it. Whoever stole my purse got granola bars and spare tampons. What a find! lol



We also went to the beach. That was fun until we all got major sunburns ha ha ha. It is so nice to be able to take a few days off and have some fun. :)
