Iron Chef Competition 2010!

So every year my ward does an Iron Chef Competion. For those of you who don't know what that is I will explain. We are divided into teams of about 5. Someone host at their house, and the rest of us show up with ingredients to help make a yummy dessert and main dish. There is also a secret ingredient that is revealed when we begin and that HAS to be used in both the main dish and the dessert.. this year secret ingredient was ORANGE JUICE! So we came up with...

ORANGE CHICKEN AND RICE WITH A FEW PEPPERS AND A SMALL AMOUNT OF PINAPPLE FOR LOOKS.

For dessert we created our own recipes and made a GRAM CRACKER CRUST WITH ORANGE JUICE AND CREAM CHEESE AND WHIPPING CREAM, WITH A FEW ORANGES ON TOP.

Both turned out super YUMMY and best of all our team took 2nd place! Pretty Good I would say!

Anyhow, at some point when I have a second I will post both recipes. The night was super fun and we all had a great time!

Enjoy the pics!

The Planetarium!

So one over the 24th of July Weekend we decided to take the kids up to the Planatarium and let them see a imax space movie and see what they could learn about space! They loved it! It was fun to see how excited they were to learn things about space, how much they would weigh on different planets, so on and so forth.. these few pics were taken of the kids on the Moon, and Mars.

Super Hero Camp!

At Jump Up Gymnastics they offer a camp called Super Hero Training.. It is always a huge hit with Ammon, as we all know that Ammon loves super hero stuff and has since he was little. This year he had just as much fun. I think these pictures speak for themselves.

Colin's Mission Call!

So a couple of weeks ago my youngest brother Colin got his mission call! I can't believe he is old enough to go!.. whew I must be getting old.. oh well it is exciting non the less. He is going to Nashville Tennesse, spanish speaking! Should be lots of fun and hard work for him. I am sure that the Lord has lots of great things in store for him there! Congrats little brother!
