Utah Vacation

We are coming for a visit. Hope to see everyone while we are there. We will be leaving on July 1st. We are planning on taking the kids to Lagoon if anyone is interested in going with us. Can't wait to see everyone.

Dance Team sponsors time

Stephanie made Dance Team again this year. She needs to collect $250 in sponsors by Aug. 29th. If you are interested in sponsoring just email me at bleudolphin@comcast.net . I appreciate any help. I will have a tax ID number so that you can claim it on your taxes. Thanks.

Potatoes

Well I have never had much luck growing veggies. But this year I decided to give it a shot. I am a little late but we will see if we get anything or not. I am attempting to grow potatoes in a 30 gallon garbage can. I know you are wondering why not just put them in the ground. We are trying to level our back yard and I don't have a spot. So after searching on the internet I found this idea and thought it was worth a try. I do have some tomatoes growing this year we will see if I get any. Each year I have tried I get some big ones that never turn red. I have my fingers crossed. Will keep you posted.

Parkrose Dance competition

On Sat. I got to go to Stephanie's dance team competition. I had to work on the last one. They were awesome. Stephanie only got to run a flag because she dislocated her knee 2 weeks ago. Hopefully she will get to dance at State which is in the middle of March. I am still trying to master my camera taking action shots so most of my pictures did not turn out very well. They took first at this competition. On more competition then off to State.

Homemade bread dough

I found a really good deal on flour last week, so I bought a bunch. I have never baked my own bread or anything so I decided to give it a try. I also found a great recipe for pizza dough. I thought that if it turns out ok I would start making part of our bread each week. As you can see I will need to make smaller loafs. My kids think they look like heads. Even though the recipe it made 1 loaf I think it would work better making two. We also made homemade pizza last night. So long Pizza Hut. Now I need to go shopping for more bread pans. I found a bread recipe for dough that you make and keep in the fridge and just use enough to make a loaf or 2. It lasts for 2 weeks in hte fridge. I am going to try that one next.
