Father's Day, Baby Dedication, and this Week's Menu

We had baby/parent dedication at New Community this morning. Wow! We had lots of babies, kids, and parents participate. It was so awesome. We dedicated Parker Reese and Preston. They were both baptized as infants in the Lutheran church, but this was a special day. Ms. Dawn gave us a letter to tuck away for both of them for when they are ready to accept Jesus as their savior.

After church we made a special lunch for Jeremiah. No steak on the menu today because he just had his wisdom teeth removed. We had tomato soup, cheese crescent rolls, and Extreme Moose Tracks. For dinner I made BBQ Pork (thank you grandma and grandpa), baked beans, sliced watermelon, and banana pudding. We shared our dinner with the Mixon's and swam for a few hours. It was so much fun.

Here's the menu for this week for those of you who asked:
Sunday: Tomato Soup, Cheesy Crescent Rolls (slice white american into two triangles and place one-half inside each crescent roll before rolling)
Monday: Soft Tacos
Tuesday: Ravioli (we buy the frozen bag) just boil and add sauce
Wednesday: Pecan Chicken
Thursday: BBQ Pork - in the crock pot
Friday: Pizza
Saturday: Salsa Chili

Blueberries and Bible School

Blueberries are a great price right now. You can usually find them for about $2.50. Here's my frugal mommy tip of the day. Rinse them and remove any stems. Let them air dry on paper towels and then pack them into snack size ziploc baggies and freeze. When you are ready to make blueberry muffins (we just use the cheap bag muffin mix) add in one of the frozen bags of blueberries and they are so yummy! Your family will beg you to make some more. You can also add them to pancakes or waffles.

The boys attended VBS at Galilee this week. We missed a few nights because Preston went to Six Flags and had a blast with Jeremiah. They rode the Log Flume three times in a row! When they got home around 10:30 PM they were still soaked! Parker Reese announced that he learned about Jesus. I asked him if he saw Jesus and he said, "Yep, he lives at church! Do you know, Jesus, mommy?" Yes, Parker Reese, I know Jesus. Sweet.
