Week with the Days

(Pictures to be added later)

Being home is so nice. I get to do all the little things that I couldn't do when I'm far far far away like:

Quilting with mom and sis. We come from a great line of talented women who can cook, clean, can, and sew anything. I hope to continue the traditions. For every occasion in our family, you get a quilt/blanket. When we got married we received and displayed 8 quilts. This is us quilting on Joe's eagle quilt.

Going to parades where my bros are marching, and J's lacrosse games.

Eagle court of honor. I've been to so many court of honors, but Eagle's are always the best. Seeing family is the best

Funny happenings at home. Nate was trying to warm up some of my Dad's hot fudge (Mmmm- he makes the best!) and he turned the pan on high and walked away to do something else while it heated. He came back to find the pan completely black and fudge burned and stuck to the pan, unable to get it off. My mom today decided she'd put the pan in the oven and turn on the cleaning cycle to get the crispy fried fudge off the pan. The oven door locked shut unable to open and toxic fumes filled the house. =) A day in the life of being a mom never never will be boring. We open windows and all will be well.

This reminds me of when I put a casserole dish of brownies from the oven onto the stove to cool. The burner on the stove was still on. Most of the mom's know what's gonna happen next. You guessed it. The dish exploded like a military grenade and scared me to death.
Last story. Who's ever ran out of dishwasher soap? ME! Who's ever tried to put liquid dish soap in the dishwasher to compensate? ME! Oh ya! I put liquid dish soap in the dishwasher and went to the store to buy more (this is when we were in NY). Came home to a kitchen ful of waist high bubbles EVERYWHERE. I was literally swimming in bubbles across my kitchen to get to the dishwasher to turn it off. It took all day to clean up the mess. Lol. Some things you just have to learn from experience.
