Icing.....

Ingredients:


  • 4 Tablespoons butter
  • 1 cup shortening ( or peanut butter)
  • dash salt
  • 2 Tablespoons vanilla
  • 4-1/2 cup 10x sugar
  • 1/4 cup milk


Mix all ingredients together.  I love this icing.  It is not too sweet.
You can also make it peanut butter just by substituting peanut butter for shortening.

On Tuesday Gabe turned 7.
It's hard to believe he is that old already.
He just finished 1st grade.
He had the best teacher this year.
Mrs. Eshelman, she did some many great things 
with the kids.
He cried the last day.
He is really going to miss her.
She is one of the best teachers we ever had.
Hopefully he has a great teacher for second grade.

Bunnies.....

This weekend we got
the boys bunnies.
 
Sam had rabbits when he was
growing up
 and we had some when we first married.
 
So Saturday we went and
got them each one.
 
 
 
 
 
They only had males,
so we won't be able to have babies right now.

Nice Weather....

This weekend we had some great weather.
It was so nice out.
It seemed this winter was cloudy a lot.

Sunday after milking we went walking at
Wolf's Hallow Park.





Then we went to my grandparents for a pizza party.
It was so nice that the boys can be out after supper again.
