How to spend naptime...




I had a million things I needed to do today. I usually wait for Grady to nap to do a lot of stuff and then just go like mad until he wakes. But today Jason went ice fishing all day and the girls were bored. So we had a little fun. They worked very hard learning to clean the berries and dry them, then being patient waiting for the chocolate to melt. I think Teagen only licked two! We were very proud of our creations. These are a couple of chocolate girls(like their mom)They even love dark chocolate(like their mom) They will eat anything if you can dip it in chocolate. When Summer was a toddler we even let her dip broccoli in hershey's syrup to get her to eat it! For the record, all the kids eat broccoli now and only need a little butter and salt. We try to save the hershey's syrup for special occasions.
Jason caught like over 100 perch, so thats cool. I don't cook them, but I'll eat them. The kids and I mostly just played and made messes all day. ( can you say MOON SAND?)Just got everyone to bed and Jason and I are gonna hang out for a while. We have the whole day tomorrow with nothing we have to do! Even the grocery shopping is done. Maybe we will go sledding (I'm looking for the photo op) or maybe we will do nothing. We'll see if I can get a good picture of that!

Love the chocolate strawberries, they look delicious! I am expecting them on an icecream cake for my birthday, haha! By the way, Friday, Northside Pub, family, 5:30pm:)

thats so great that you had special time with your girls, and it looks so yummy too. I love days when we have nothing planned it seems that those days are few and far for us so I really try to appreciate them. Hope you had fun with whatever you did.
