:: April ::

It's hard to believe that April is already over!  Here are a few random things that happened during the month...

 The Strite's have chicks!!

They're so soft and cute!!

Joshua is really talented with wood working so I asked him to build me a little bookshelf out of pallets.

It turned out really cool!!!

I realized that I forgot to include pictures of the master bedroom a few posts ago.

We got the adorable MR. & MRS. pillow for a wedding present :) It matches our room perfectly!

 One day when I was at the Strite's, Joanna, Jesse, Jared, and I decided we were going to make donuts!

We mixed the dough and were rolling it out when someone started a flour fight! 

(It might've been me haha)

Our first batch of doughnuts was a complete fail.  The recipe we used didn't have any yeast in it so the doughnuts didn't rise at all.  Sis. Joyce found another recipe (this one called for yeast and mashed potatoes) so we tried it.  These doughnuts tasted light and fluffy and the glaze was just divine!

Yummmmmyyyyyyy!!!

Last week the girls and I went to Sierra Vista and on our way, the road was blocked by some cows and their calves.  The vehicle we were in didn't have a working horn so we slowly inched forward until they moved out of our way!
