baking fun

Growing up my sister and I would usually have pita bread with butter just about each morning while we were visiting in California.  So I can never find them.  I decided well Ill just make them!  But I also decided I'd make them into a pizza too!

Turned out super yummy!  Such an easy thing to make too.

Then I decided that the kiddos are on such a snack fix that I needed to come up with some snacks.  So I've made Cheerio Crunch Mix and Marshmallow Cereal bars.

Fun days

We have had a great last few days!  On the 4th we went over to his Uncle's house and ate some tasty food and cake.  After that we went to watch fireworks.  They had a few vendors out there and of course they had kettle popcorn.  My newest addiction.  Ok all because of my mom, a couple years ago she helped put together an event that had kettle popcorn.    It was a memory in the making. I adored hearing Clara's squeels and wow's on the fireworks.  Hailey kept telling me the ones she liked the most and that were pretty.  Ryu was quiet and seemed zoned out into the fireworks!

Yesterday we again got to spend time with the Cluff's.  His Uncle took us to my first baseball game.  We took a bus to the game.  It was awesome!  Oh and I have to mention with my MIL out of town a friend of hers kept ALL 5 of our kiddos.  Thanks to her we were able to enjoy watching the Ray's.  We went to hang out with his cousin and his fiance for a few drinks before the game started and then I got to see what it was all about.  Much cooler in person.  I loved seeing how cool the team worked together.  It was unreal seeing how well they worked together as a team.  They were totally in-sink. They lost.  About half way through the game it seemed they just lost the will.  But it was still very neat to watch and have my handsome hunk explain it all to me.  It will be a night I cherish and never forget.

Skyler's quilt

I finished this one up a lot faster then I did Gemma's, but that maybe because I had already had all the pinks and blacks cut out!  Plus this one had no real pattern so I didnt have to make sure I was sewing it in the right order!  I also decided I wanted the flowers to be bigger.  I know that they already love them.  As I was sewing on the flowers Skyler came and started to play with it.  So did Gemma when I was making hers.  Clara even thinks these are hers.  Looks like I need to make her a newer one.  Bigger!  Like for a twin when she gets to be in a bigger bed.  I am so glad Gigi has these for me to make.  I loved keeping myself busy making these.  Plus I have an amazing Husband who went to JoAnn's a few times for me to get buttons for the flowers. Not many men will do that for his lady.  I am one lucky gal!

Here I am starting out with sewing the squares together.

The start and the flowers before I attach!

So GiGi bought the materials of the colors I wanted for the girls.  Lately I've been really craving things to do with my hands.  I wanted to sew and I wanted to crochet.  E's mom bought the material before the girls were born.  She had idea's of making this quilt herself.  But with the way things have gone with working and the what nots she wasnt able to work on it yet.  So she instead gave the material to me since I was in desperate need of a project!  Thanks to GiGi I have one quilt done and one to go!
