The Last Day of Summer

Since it was the last day before school started for Addison, we decided to have a Pajama Party and stay in our pajamas all day. We had pancakes and peaches for breakfast, pizza and plums for lunch and popcorn and movies throughout the day.  The kids had a pillow fight and we made some apple rice krispy treats to celebrate Addison and Rhyder starting school.

Everything loaded up to serve the kids pancakes

She LOVES pancakes!

You have to have popcorn with a movie!

Enjoying hers as well
 
 
We tried to watch another movie called The Big Miracle, but the kids were not too interested in it.  So we decided to make some Apple Rice Krispy treats to celebrate the start of school.  The kids did a great job helping me make these and they turned out looking and tasting wonderful!
 
 
 
Our ingredients
Measuring the rice krispys
We needed some more

It was a very relaxing Pajama Party and just what we needed before the school year begins!

Homemade Bread

Because of all the recent events in our country right now, going to buy staples, like bread, in the grocery store has become very difficult....
