Sunday Morning lazy

So I decided to give the blog a bit of a face lift.  I like it!

Sunday morning, kids had early breakfast (because they are always up early) and now are watching a bit of cartoons so Mom and Dad can be a little lazy.  Hubby finally updated his blog (YAY) and I thought I would too.

It's odd for me to be sitting on the couch with the tv on downstairs, listening to the quiet followed by chuckles at whatever the Cat in the Hat is doing.  We used to have it on more, now we've moved away from it as the older kids are getting older.  These poor girls don't get near as much screen time as their brothers did!

We've had an absolute;y beautiful last day and a half but it's grey again today.  Warmer, but no sun.  I think I'd take the sunshine and colder weather over this.  But we're supposed to get a bit more snow too, so that should be fun.

We had an amazing supper last night!  For Christmas the kids got a new cookbook that they have been going through off and on, but one of the meals they wanted back in January we never got around to making so we did that yesterday.  Tasty pasta casserole that we adapted for what we had in the kitchen. It was supposed to only have the pasta, cauliflower, and ham in a cheesy garlicky white sauce.  I added some broccoli, used mozzarella cheese instead of the sharp (just because it's what we had.  The sharp would have added a kick to it), completely forgot about the Parmesan, and put it a bit of powdered mustard instead of Dijon. It was very, very good.  Sergeant wasn't fond of the broccoli (he loves broccoli soup, really dislikes simply cooked broccoli), Girlie didn't like the cauliflower, but they ate it, because that is what they need to do.

Then there were games brought up.  Our friend Coastal Transplant came over for supper and visiting so the boys wanted to play games with her while Daddy ran a bath for the girls.  We had Zingo (Bingo with a ZING!) and Candyland.  Bathtimes, teeth, then bed, with Hubby and I playing cards a bit longer with Coastal Transplant and chatted a while before she headed home.

Well, Girls are starting to loose focus on the cartoons now.  They are dressed now (in matching pink dresses) and I should get moving so we don't fall behind before church.  Plus I'll need to take a bit more time for another cup of coffee :)
