I have a few stranglers on my camera that I need to put on here. Fun things:
Jason introduced Elleree and Beckett to the "pool" (aka our tub). I am not a tub person I never take baths so these huge jetted tubs are wasted on me. Turns our the kid love them, and it kind of cleans all the dirt and dust out every so often.
It's a win, win if you ask me. So now we ask the kids do you want to go for a swim, or take a bath. It depends on their mood.
This is my Mother's Day present. We have a ton of wheat (Jason's version of food storage), but had no way of grinding it. One day I decided I wanted to make a whole wheat pizza that my friend Shawnee makes and the kids love. So I started grinding the wheat with my blender......it broke.
Then I started grinding it with the mortar and pestle. Thank goodness we had one of these handy right. Not so much, two hours later and I only had 1/4 cup of flour I was done.
I ordered my self a wheat grinder. It works like a charm, and even hooks up to a drill if I don't want to make my kids grind it. Now I can use all that wheat in my storage any time I want.
Making yummy bread like this! Sure I had to buy a new blender and am going to have to buy a new drill that will fit the attachment for the grinder (who knew there were different size drill heads not me), but so what. Right?
My mom flew my grandma in to visit again. Every time I see her, I and afraid it will be the last. I woke up in the morning and found Beckett and her like this.
I took some pictures of them.
Then I decided I was tired of only getting pictures of them I wanted me in it too, so I played with the timer on my camera. I ended up getting some cute four generation ones like this one.

That's too funny about trying to hand grind the wheat! Makes you grateful for modern conveniences doesn't it! Sweet pictures of your grandma. You should always get pictures like that when you can. You never know!
Love the pictures with your grandma! Wheat grinder? Hooray! You should have bought one that plugs in though, they make some that plug in that you can do manually too. Or so I've heard, it's not like I have one! The idea of you grinding wheat with the mortar and pestle made me laugh out loud. I love that you even tried it, I probably would have given up!
Ah the advantages of being married to a pharmacist just never end do they? I got a kick out of thinking of you with that look of determination you get grinding away with the pestle :0) The bread looks yummy and you get more power tools to make the real one work. Win-win I'd say.
Your gramma looks good and those are some lovely photos you took. You are looking cute as usual you sexy beast!
