Packing

Packing is a lot more fun then we ever anticipated!...So is this little girl!

My first homemade bread

My friend Maria taught everyone in relief Society how to make light and fluffy bread. Unfortunately while we were making it at relief society nobodies bread ever worked out because the yeast had gone bad. It was still such a fun night and it gave me the confidence to try the bread myself at home. So here are the results from the first loaf of homemade bread I have ever made. It was pretty darn delicious. I normally hate homemade bread because I don't like how dense and dry most recipes are. This recipe is perfect though because it comes out light and fluffy. I still think with a little more practice I could get it even fluffier. After making it I decided to make some grilled cheese and tomato soup for dinner. It was delicious and I am now no longer scared of making bread. Thanks Maria!!!

Life moves on

Well I have been super bad about blogging lately. I missed all of our summer fun that we had in San Diego and at Disneyland.I didn't post Jason's Birthday. I didn't post any of the kids monthly updates this month. I missed Brooke turning 29 months and Preston turning 4 months.

I actually enjoyed the break from getting everything into a post. I know I will look back at my (journal) blog and wonder why I missed those certain events but the truth is I have just been enjoying my kids and everything we have been doing. (And enjoying to much reality tv during the short nap that Brooke takes everyday. MasterChef is a new favorite because I am in love with Gordon Ramsy and everything he is in.)

I have been busy packing for our move at the end of this month and busy with some projects that I have been working on for the house. (More to come on that later.) So I'll let this be my short little Month of August Post.
