Father's Day Treats

Now, I by no means feel as though I got a crafty gene. It's too bad, some days it'd probably be a lot of fun. However, this Father's Day the RS presidency were asked to do something for all the dads at church. We tossed around a fair amount of ideas, and this is what we settled on... rice krispie pops! Pops... get it? yea, I knew you were smart! I had a good time making them, so here you go a couple of pictures. They had their option of regular or fruity pebble flavored. We also gave everyone root beer floats.

It was cute, 2 of us went to deliver the treats to the boys. By the time we left, they were all as giddy as a bunch of excited girls. I'm sure they were told they needed to calm down and be quiet. Boys + sugar = happy fellas.

H & I were talking about their excitement on the way home. He was trying to say how it was different from girls. I didn't buy it. I'll give him an A for effort.
My dad will be getting his requested burger off the grill tonight. He seems content. I love my dad. He's the best!

I am the cat lady...

There are these two feral cats on our block (Mimi & Ali), our family had the well meaning idea that we could domesticate them, fix them and life would be well. Well, a year has now passed and the two sisters were both good enough to never let us catch them or pet them, and they were also good enough to each have litters within about two weeks of each other...did I mention in our backyard? I now have 6 kittens that we've been able to domesticate. They are so much fun! Though, the drawback of being a girl that always has her camera on her, I am taking tons of pictures of these little ones. I have to admit though, life would be far more dull without Calvin, Hobbes, Tabitha, Susie, Oliver & Delilah... thanks Mimi & Ali!! On the upside, the kitten stork stopped losing its deliveries en route.... 4 days, 6 kittens, and a barrel of fun ever since.

to blog or not to blog?

I figure the more I keep thinking in blog posts it might be about time to finally make a blog that I maintain. No promises though! Let's see what happens.
