If you stop moving it around it becomes liquid!

Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and comes down from the Father of lights....

I can't thank Him enough for how He blesses me day by day.

A Dinner for Grampa and Gramma....

Eric and I went away on a business trip to Austin for four days.

As a thank you for watching our children and letting us enjoy a long weekend to ourselves,

we decided to put on a nice fancy dinner for my family.

First part of the meal was the appetizer.  Jalapeno poppers made by Cameron and Elyse.

Next was a house salad....

Then the potato bacon chowder....

The main meal was Fettucini Alfredo.

Then a nice Coffee Crumble Cake made by Cameron.

We had such a good time planning this dinner and the kids really seemed to enjoy it and just made the evening go by so smoothly.

Of course the dressing up as waiters and a waitress was my idea, but they didn't mind too much!

This is totally my opinion, but I think we really impressed my folks!  (Which was part of the plan!)

In the end my dad gave a tip to each kid which was a surprise for the them!

 It was a memorable evening...  I am so thankful for my family. 

I am so blessed....

(I so bummed I didn't get a picture of my brother Jr.  He was also here.)
