Caramel Apples!

Today we made caramel apples. The kids had good attitudes while making them--and were very excited to eat their creations.

Big, red apples, mini M&M's, Reese's Pieces & sprinkles



I forgot to take a picture of the apples before we started eating them...so here's a view of what was left after everyone had their fill (for now, I'm sure we'll eat more tonight!).

Family Portraits

We finally got a chance to take some family portraits now that Hawi & Misikir are home.  Thank you to Heidi Miller at Created Anew Designs  for taking our portraits!


My absolute favorite picture from the entire batch!

Doesn't she look so grown up?!  8 going on 18.

I reminded her to smile for her pictures--but this one without a smile is my favorite of her!
Sisters!  
My cool middle schooler!
It was tough to get a smile out of him (he was pretty goofty) but this one is a keeper!

What a handsome young man--love that dimple!

 What fun!  Thanks again Heidi!
