Ballet recital

 Karissa and her ballet class had a recital last Monday.  They performed to the song "Lullaby" by Celine Dion.






 Everyone did great!
I am working on getting the video on here.

Quiet Corner Tea and Coffee House

I had the pleasure recently to visit this beautiful little restaurant with some friends.  It is in the middle of nowhere over by Cherubusco, set back in the woods.  It is the coolest place!  So secluded and peaceful.  It is run by a husband and wife that used to work as missionaries.  They have the best chai and hot chocolate.  They do serve a few kinds of sandwiches, and they have a nice dessert menu.  The sandwiches are served on fresh homemade bread that is just great.  The desserts are different every day. 


 Here is our table, the sandwiches come with soup, too.  So good!

 Here is the teapot that the chai came in.  Isn't it precious!





My dessert!







I can't wait to go back, this place is so neat!

Weekend at Flora's 2011

We had a great time at our friends, the Flora's house the first weekend of April.  Yes, I know that was a month ago, we have been very busy and now it is time for me to catch up on pictures and blogging.  This is how we spent one afternoon, creating play dough art.  The penguin up top is mine, and the dino below belongs to Joel.

Karissa is preparing the dough to be her masterpiece.







This is also mine.  A hot dog, carrots and peas, mashed potatoes.  A complete meal!

Nessie, the play dough monster.

Diane and Karissa making scotcheroos, yum yum.  I could go for one right now.



At the wonderful park just walking distance from their house.



Yay!  Fun times!
