Day 050: Doggy Door

":) I taught Lily how to crawl through the doggy door and Ashley taught her to box with soda can koozies... We're such good influences...

Day 049: GKA

Today was the annual God-Kid Adventure. This year we did a pirate theme and floated the river and searched for buried treasure. 
I barely had time to get over there with the camera... The kids were super fast in finding and digging up the treasure. They're excellent pirates.

Day 048: Lilac Bushes

Ashley needed new outdoor lights for the garage, so when I got out of work, we went to Menards. All their trees and bushes were 50% off, so we got some lilac bushes to go on the side of the garage.

Day 047: CMC

Homemade crab-meat cheese for dinner. Yum!

Day 046: Gummy Candy

The gummy candy worked out way better than the rock candy.

Day 045: Rock Candy

I tried making rock candy jewels... but I think it was too humid. They didn't harden.

Day 044: Pesto Pasta with Shrimp

This morning I was getting ice out of the freezer and I knocked a plastic container of homemade pesto out and it broke on the floor. So I put it in the fridge to thaw for dinner. Tonight I made pesto pasta and then decided to put shrimp in it. The package said to brush them with butter and then broil them, but I didn't want to melt butter, so I used a container of garlic butter that Papa Johns gives you with pizza. Garlic butter shrimp and garlic in the pesto... but one can never have enough garlic, so I sprinkled it with garlic salt. It turned out pretty good and, of course, was super easy.
