Michael and I had a good morning talk.
Triple Rose |
Krista called and we had a great talk with her.
My sister-friend, Beth, called and it was fantastic to hear her voice.
Michael and the boys went to replace spark plugs.
The girls and I tackled the candy project. We were armed with helpful tips from readers....cold water, gloves, and the butter trick. We set up an assembly line and got a routine working well. Stacia unwrapped all these little candy canes for us.
Arielle filled them....she and I both squished the warm canes into hearts....I liked buttering my fingers....really fun for a vegan to be able to enjoy the butter flavor when the project was over. ::snort::
We finished making these little hearts - some are marked with seared flesh and Arielle is sure a few have our fingerprints on them. ::snort:: Michael came in to say they were taking the van to get the oil changed. We needed to buy ribbon and more bags to wrap these.....so we all went shopping.
These two will be ushers with their older brothers at "The Wedding." We picked up pants, dress shirts and these ties. We couldn't find vests or shoes.
We got tights for the girls.
We couldn't find shoes for Stacia.
We obviously need to get the boys in for hair cuts before we leave. I think I can trim up the girls and I.
Though we ALL tried to avoid it - I'll have to all of them with me on a mall trip before we leave for "The Wedding." The boys think a mall trip is a fate worse than death and I think trying to find camis and "such" with the three younger ones in tow is a fate worse than death and more death!!!
We managed to get two weeks of our core subjects done last week. We are working to do this same this week. It will be a full week.
Dinner is over. Michael is polishing up tomorrow's sermon. The kids and I are going to watch an episode of Duck Dynasty....
Choosing Joy!

Sis: What a special day you all had. YUP, I do mean special. Memories. Happy hunting and if I happen to see any such thing as vests I'll let you know. I have to go out sometime this week looking. :):):):) I'll no doubt have Lorri with me so........... we might see something.
Thanks, Mom. I found some vests on sale in the suit department for 50% off at Penneys. Not the most "stylish" but the price is right and they'll look sharp.
