World Famous Conference Sunday Waffles

Conference Sunday waffles are a time honored tradition with Kay Lee and Matthew. Aubrey and Chris hosted this April. I do all the mixing and fixing.




Egg whites are a big part of the process, separating and beating them into the perfect stiffness,

Lauren helped with the mixer, Caleb did the drinks, Jake cooked the bacon and sausage and Chris did 36 scrambled eggs with cheese. Everyone helped out as we listened to the talks.





Using just the right amount of batter is important to not making a mess. Some people like them light and others like their waffles cooked a dark brown. No matter how they turn out, someone is always willing to eat the next one.


We had three waffle irons cooking, everyone was in such good spirits. The little ones know the routine and they were excited.


Lukee likes his with strawberries and lots of whipped cream. Yum. We do this every conference Sunday, and on New Years day, and sometimes at the cabin in the summer.

Say it like it is...

Aubrey has done some great decorating and put up a couple of vinyl wall sayings that are exactly what every mom understands.

Not just any old park

The Tyler kids came for a visit last week while their parents were at a wedding. Matthew hosted a dinner of McDonald's and a trip to one of the funnest playgrounds we have ever been to. It is a castle with stairs, slides, tunnels, bridges and all kinds of little places to hide from your siblings. Run, Lukee, Run!!!









Eggs to dye for...

Danielle hosted an Easter egg coloring craft. And color they did. Everything. From their shoes, to their fingernails. Lukee's favorite color is blue, so it's not hard to pick out his carton of eggs. Thanks D for making it so much fun and thanks to Aub and Chris for not complaining about the new color of their garage floor;)











Tea for Two (Actually, lemonade and strawberries)

Abbie was down for her weekend sleepover and she hosted a Tea Party for just the two of us. She is a wonderful hostess and managed to slice the strawberries and make lemonade for us all by herself. Thanks Abbie for inviting me to the party.
