EXTREME MAKEOVER HOME EDITION

On Saturday, Lori came over and her and I took the shuttle over to the house down the street that Extreme Makeover is redoing. There were tons of workers everywhere and it was neat to see this house that will be on the show in May. I believe the house belongs to a family that has two little girls that have auto immune problems and the house was unsafe as it had mold issues and structural problems because it had flooded several times. We had a fun day!!

GOING TO SPAIN

We are very excited as Darci's inlaws invited us to go to Spain with them. What a great way to celebrate our 40th wedding anniversary!!

2nd time of "COOKIN WITH THE CHICKS"


I went to "Cookin With the Chicks" on March 3rd. It was my second time of going and is fun. Everyone brought a family recipe that had been passed down through the years. We each make that recipe so everyone can sample it. I demonstrated how to can meat (beef). It is so good and tasty and even my kids all love it which is saying a lot. If anyone is interested in going with me just let me know. It is every other month so we don't get burned out.

Grandma and Marlee making banana nut bread aka "sneeze bread"

We made banana nut bread in Darci's breadmaker. It turned out OK I guess but Marlee sneezed while making it and she was way too close to the bowl so we started calling it "sneeze bread" and to be honest no one was too hungry for it by the time we were done!! It was too funny and we were cracking up. Kids and cooking!!

GRANDMAS TRIP TO AZ

West came to LV to attend a 4 day class with Joe so I went to Darci's while he was here. A baby bunny fell into their basement stairwell so Darci retreived it and now they have a new pet. They are going to let it go in a few days though. It was so tiny and cute.
