Go Utes

Chad got us tickets to go to a University of Utah Gymnastics meet. Chad's parents, the kids and I drove up to Salt Lake and met Chad at one of our favorite eatery: The Bakery.

Everything is delicious at The Bakery but especially the desserts. We all enjoyed some soup and rolls. But the company was the best.Can we have some dessert daddy? Pllleeeaaassseee!

Rebecca got some mini eclairs. She shared with Benjamin.

Chad and I shared a type of Napoleon. I couldn't get my camera out fast enough to take a picture before we both finished it up. More eclairs. The University of Utah gymnastics team is ranked #1. They were competing against Michigan.

Pictures for Bill's Fan Club

My sister sent out this email yesterday and it reminded me of some pictures I had taken a few years ago (before I had a blog) but now I know what to do with them. This is the email:

Dear friends and family and fun club members of Bill - Bill is going to kill me but look below at the e-mail he got from the training director at (his work). They did a survey after the training sessions and look at one of the comments! He-he! Of course I know he's cute!

Someone has a crush on Bill Benjaminsen...
So I am going through the comments from the NTM Survey and I run across this comment. Not sure how this helps me to improve training...but perhaps we should have Bill B teach all our sessions!!

19. Bill Benjaminsen is so cute!

Valentine Pictures

I tried to get a cute valentine photo of the kiddos before Rebecca had school this morning but no luck. Maybe another day.

Benjamin Walking

Benjamin is learning to walk and he loves his push walker that is an hand me down from his Aunt Kristy (plus Rebecca used it when she was learning to walk.) He is learning how to turn it when he gets to a wall instead of stopping, getting down and bum scooting to his final destination. Last night we added some weight to his walker for some strength training. Wrestler in training.

Rebecca's turn.

Applesauce

Rebecca has been begging me to make applesauce with her. She really likes Syd the Science Kid and they make applesauce in one of its episodes.

Peeling the apples.

Don't eat to many.

Mash! Mash! Mash! Mash! Mash!
Happy Dance afterwards.
Rebecca had a lot of fun. I didn't take a very long time. We had a wonderful dessert for Family Home Evening.

Applesauce

6 cups apples-peeled, cored and chopped

3/4 cup water

1/8 t ground cinnamon

1/8 t ground gloves

1/2 cup white sugar

In a 2 quart saucepan over medium heat, combine apples, water, cinnamon, and cloves. Bring to a boil, reduce heat, and simmer 10 minutes. Stir in sugar, and simmer 5 more minutes.
