Dinner Compliments

I just wanted to commemorate this night, because I rarely get compliments about dinner. Not that I get complaints really, it’s just so funny how tonight unfolded. I was surprised to receive many compliments. Kathryn and Blake raved and raved about how delicious and wonderful the dinner was. In fact, Blake said “this is the best dinner ever!” Kathryn said I should be on a cooking show. Then Blake said I could be in a cooking race. They both asked if they could have ravioli in their lunches tomorrow, Blake wanted some corn in there too, “for a snack”. Wow! The Costco ravioli and store brand spaghetti sauce really paid off. Too bad Blake didn’t eat more than two bites of his…but at least Kathryn cleaned her plate. It was just so cute!

Allison sent some pictures of Brooklyn. She always seems to have a smile on her face, but in this one it looks like she's dancing. Can't you just picture some headphones on her? So cute! Thanks for the pics Allison!

Kathryn and Blake woke up and went outside to play Saturday morning. Kathryn's outfit was a riot. Blake was running around barefoot hugging this gorilla and acting like it was his baby. We spent the morning watching the kids play on the play set that Ryan built for them a few months ago. It was so nice to have a little cooler weather for a change.
