Weekending....

Well, it has been 21 days since my last post.  Yikes!  January is almost through and I am looking forward to the warm-ish temperatures we are having for this January thaw!  Our month has been relatively low-key which may explain my lack of posts.  Weekends have been busy of random things, including a trip for Jay to Alexandria for a bachelor party, then a trip for Ella and I to Morris the following weekend for a bridal shower.  This weekend, Jay was at a Gopher's game, so Ella and I saw the movie Paddington and loved it!  I made a delicious berry cobbler to enjoy over the weekend -and it was a huge hit!  Seriously easy and super yummy!  Cherry Berry Cobbler.  Try it!!  Recipe here 

Yesterday, I made a full turkey dinner.  Turkey, mashed potatoes, homemade bread and even cooked carrots (believe me, it was a LONG day in the kitchen).  But it was worth it and now we have some leftovers so I don't have to think about what we're going to eat for a few nights.  :)

Yesterday afternoon, Ella spent some time taking Jay to a ball where they danced the day away.  :)  She had a lot of fun but those dress-up heels are slippery on wood floors!! 

This week at school, the kids are doing nursery rhyme presentations.  Ella has chosen Humpty Dumpty.  We finished her props and she practiced for us last night.  She will do great.  She had a fun time painting those props too!  Check back for a video of her presentation.  :)

Happy Monday!
