Kids helping~

The Ice-cream cake












Mommy and me time!








My daughter loves to do everything that I do. She helped make dinner tonight. We had breaded chicken with honey mustard dipping sauce. It is so much easier for me to do it on my own but I want to teach her like my Mom did for me. Both of my kids ate the dinner tonight (Jonathan even ate chicken). They also both tried sweet onions and loved them. They taste so much sweeter then the onions we are used too.
We also made a special ice-cream cake to celebrate his birthday. We had planned on making it on his birthday but never did. The kids helped make it and loved it.

Skor ice-cream cake
8 ice-cream sandwiches
1 bag skor candy pieces
1 8 oz tub whipped cream
layer 4 sandwiches on bottom of loaf pan and then add half of whipped cream, sprinkle with crushed skor candy and repeat layers. The kids enjoyed it very much and it was super easy.
We had quite an exciting day; church, gym and then we were supposed to go swimming but thunder showers came instead. Another fun weekend in the Friesen household : )

The recipe was on allrecipes.com under breaded chicken fingers. The sauce was 1/4 cup mayo, 1 T mustard, 1 T honey. Mix together and dunk away. I love what new crafts you have discoverd! The shirt is darling.

This past year has been a year of change. We moved from a huge running community to an area that does not have the biking and running trails...
