Tonight's Dinner

This is what we had for dinner tonight. It was excellent! If you're interested, click here for the recipe. These are the Grilled Rainbow Beef Kabobs. We had the Pineapple Chicken Kabobs yesterday. They are both super good and super easy. You can even save a little dinero here on the dressing used for these recipes.


The grill master!

My mother's day gift

For Mother's Day I asked for 2 new storm doors (I know, exciting stuff!) for the front and back doors. Jaime told me I could only get one for the front door. So, last weekend we picked out a door and brought it home. Yesterday, Jaime got started and the project quickly went from a simple storm door installation to a major project. The wood under the door was completely rotten and needed to be replaced. The more he took out the more he found that needed to come out. It just got worse and worse. In the end I ended up with two new doors, just not the two I initially wanted. He ended up deciding to replace the front door too! The project isn't completed yet. It will take him a while to get all the wood under the house replaced. (He's super busy at work so this project will have to wait until next weekend, I think.) For now the new front door is only wedged in place, no nails, no nothin'. Just the deadbolt!

It just kept getting worse and worse!

I'll post some after pictures once it's all done!

Awana Awards Ceremony

This past Wednesday night was the end of AWANA for this year. Megan finished her book and got through the entire review as well. She worked so hard and did such a great job each week working on her verses. I was so impressed with her, because once she finished her book and we began the review I could tell she really learned them since she was able to say 4-5 review verses each week!

The Sparks did a little presentation during the ceremony. Megan's part was reciting John 3:16. She did an excellent job. I wish we had a little video clip of it, but our camera doesn't have sound with the video. For now this picture will have to do!
