Last Friday Night..

We made Carmel corn, (grandma's recipe of course because dad has to have his mom's yummy recipe) and we played baseball, the kids loved it.  They love being able to make yummy treats and hate waiting for things to cool, so their Dad showed them how to hit a baseball and how to stand and all that good baseball stuff that the mother knows nothing about ;) They have a great Dad!

Sticky Carmel Popcorn

RaNae

1 cup brown sugar 

1 cup white sugar 

1 cube butter

1 cup Karo syrup

a pinch of salt

1/4 tsp cream of tartar

Bring to boil in a heavy sauce pan. Add 1 tsp baking soda; it will foam up in the pan pour over popped corn. ( I do 2 batches in an air Popper and try to shake out the unpopped kernel of corn before adding the caramel.)

  

                    

                                              Emma and Jenna thought the sound of the popcorn popping was a little scary ;)



Jenna is a good little helper

Hannah is getting it down.
The right way to stand and how to swing now she just needs to hit the ball ;)

Emma would swing and do a full circle spin.

Jenna likes to swing before her dad threw the ball.

 

Spring break....long overdue ha ha

I meant to do this post forever ago but life gets busy I and hadn't downloaded my camera so here I am updating ;) We spent the day at my kids most favorite place in the world and it is not Disneyland but it is just as magical! We went to my Grandmothers house in Bern Idaho...it is by Montpelier for anyone who has never heard of it. My kids love to explore her amazing garden, play in the out buildings and visit with her it is a magical place a place for the imagination I loved going up there as a kids and love that my girls do too. 



Outbuildings are always great for a a new adventure.
