funnies heard from the backseat

me "what did God feed the Israelites in the desert?"
C "mayonnaise"
KG "we have that in the refrigerator"

T's favorite shirt (for the last year) is this orange shirt. He wears it all the time so much that KG says "I'm cold like my Dad." (It really says cool like my Dad)

I wish we had this taped. We're making a DVD for Grandmollie. I told K to say "Grandmollie since you can't come to our house, we're bringing our house to you." KG on her own says "our house is too big to send so we'll have to take it apart."

"Mommy, once you sit down and get buckled, I'll give share a cookie with you." where did little KG hear that?

"I'm not a whale because I don't have a big mouth."
which was right after
"Mommy, when I call you I want you to come the first time."

catching up

I'm really behind on my blogging and want to catch up with our fun trip to Boone, Grandma & Pops Leon's visit, Kelly's visit, and capturing the other memories here ... but
before I do, here's some great things heard from the kids recently:

KG: where's Daddy?
Me: Kentucky
KG: Kentucky Fried?

after I prayed over C the little girl God has planned to be his wife, C: but Mommy I already know who is going to be my wife.

Little T tried his hardest but didn't quite make it to "No Hugs until Saturday". Today he says "every day is a day for hugs and kisses"

We've all been enjoying our Friday night movie nights- pizza & then a movie- some of our recent favorites- Benji, Charlotte's Web, and tonight we started The Black Stallion (although we probably should have fast-forwarded the whole ship sinking part- there was much weeping during that tonight. KG- where'd his daddy go?)

Tonight we had a terrific treat which the boys named "Smoothie Cream"- the boys  (& Papa) have always loved frozen bananas and I really stumbled upon a recipe for banana ice cream. Tonight after dinner I got out frozen strawberries for the kids- not quite so yummy & hard to eat so I thought I'd try strawberry/ banana "ice cream"- I pureed 1/2 frozen strawberries, 1/2 banana in the vita mix- I did add a tiny bit of coconut milk because I didn't chop the bananas or strawberries first and I was impatient.  Super yummy! Can't wait to try more flavors.

banana can be used as a base to get the creamy texture. I add frozen berries, frozen peaches frozen ANY fruit.. making sure you always have at least 1/2 the quantity of banana total. 
For a special treat I like to add chocolate chips, or make a chocolate ganache and pour it over like a sunday. YUM! and healthy :)

It's hard to believe it's been a year already, but baby girl was much easier to keep still then!
