Live and Learn!!

It was Jaycee's turn to for Family Night last night, and she decided to make Chocolate chip cookies. She says..."don't help me Mom...I can do it!!" And I totally believed that she could, however I just happened to be making dinner at the same time, so I had to oversee.

She got the batter all ready and scooped them on the cookie sheet all ready to bake. After just 3 minutes into baking, I noticed they had spread out ALL over the sheet and were huge almost going off the sheet.....and FLAT! We walked through the recipe....and checked everything off...and well~
Needless to say, Jaycee learned that...cookies can't stay formed when you only use 1 cup of flour instead of 2!! Whew...glad we figured that one out!! "This is Bang" (AKA. Minerva)
.....and she was baptized on Saturday! You have never seen anyone SO excited to get baptized. Her Son was baptized a couple of months ago, and her husband is a member. It's been alot of fun getting to know them and to have them as our friends! Afterwards, we decided that we should have a PARTY!! So she and her husband and Son came over. The Elders came too...4 of them!! These Elders have some talent!! One was playing classical music on the piano while the other was playing the violin...and the other the Ukelele....had quite the JAM!!

So we cooked up some Lumpia that Bang and I had previously made, and put out a spread and munched and played games!! (She can cook for us ANYTIME...she's the best!!)

I had to surrender my apron to Bang...she was doing the deep frying!

Our little get together!
