Breakfast with Sister Parks

Our friend Christie parks likes to come over to visit and play with our kids. She's the Primary Chorister in our ward and loves children, but can't have any of her own. This morning she came over and had breakfast with us. She brought her own special batter for waffles. She had the kids help her make it. They had lots of fun. She also brought some fruit to put on the waffles.

It was a delicious breakfast. Thanks Sister Parks!!!I love William's morning hair.

Fruit pizza and homemade ice cream

One of our new favorite desserts!! We put sugar cookie dough on a pizza pan and cooked it. Then covered it with frosting, then covered it with fruit. We did the ice cream the old fashioned way-without an ice cream maker. We placed the ingredients inside a plastic jar, made sure the lid was tight, then placed that jar into an even bigger jar. We put ice and rock salt around it, then closed the lid on the bigger jar. Then we rolled it back and forth to each other in the kitchen. It took about 30 minutes of rolling back and forth. We sang songs as we did it. It was fun and yummy!!
