A Minor Flood, Dress Debate, and Lunch Packing

Happy Independence Day! The float Jimmy worked on for the Fourth of July parade our church is in is all ready to go.

He spent a lot of time getting things comfy for the kids to ride on the trailer (it’s going to be hot!), and decorated it well. Nice work, Jimmy!

Fourth of July Float for Parade

I loved seeing the float last night at church–we had an outdoor service and dinner afterwards, which was lovely. We came home to a minor flood in our basement, though! (more…)

Ice Cream in A Bag, Professor Dad, and Other Happenings

I hope everyone had a lovely Father’s Day! As I mentioned, we went to church and then stayed after for a picnic. Sadie and I gave Jimmy a new coffee mug and coffee beans along with a paper we filled out of questions that Sadie answered about Jimmy. This was the second year we did this and I think he enjoyed it!

After church and the picnic, we all took naps, practiced archery, and then made ice cream in a bag. We used this simple five-ingredient recipe and added crushed Oreos afterwards.
