Dinners and Parties

Tannin experienced snow in April!  She had so much fun following the snowflakes' lazy fall until a snowflake plopped right on top of her head like a hat.  

She's so mad at that snowflake!  "If I close my eyes, it won't know I'm here and it will leave."

I've been having fun spending lots of time with my parents.  I made them Taylor's Paprika Rosemary Chicken recipe he made up.

It's looking at me...

And then I come home to fresh flower Taylor picked on his run in the mountains.

Last Sunday, I took my Dad to the airport so Mom, Taylor and I made cookies and Soy Lasagna.

Mom in her new, cute, colorful work out clothes.

Taylor helping me create a new recipe for Soy Lasagna.

 Soy Lasagna!  Vegan except for meat...haha!  It was super delicious!

On Monday night to Tuesday I had a sleepover with my Mom.  We had lots of fun and I prepared Black Bean Quinoa Lime Salad for her to try.

 And Taylor and I got a new mattress!  Oh my gosh!  I love it!  I  never thought I could wake up so refreshed and without pain!

We had a fun piano recital with my Mom and her students.  I played Cinderella Waltz for the kids.  Then we stopped off at the Drake Parents and had fun talking for a little while.

Sunday night we will have Grandma Yvette and Grandpa Jack over for dinner with my parents as well.

I love coming home from a stressful day at work, because right as I walk through the front door, I burst out laughing.  Tannin, you are so funny sometimes!

Someone was so dejected while Mom and Dad were gone ALL DAY working instead of paying attention to her.

 It's like she fell and refused to get up because she was so angry at us for ignoring her.

Right after I took this picture, she got super excited and scratched forever at the glass until I let her out to play.

I've been enjoying spending Saturdays with my parents since Taylor studies from 6 am to 5 pm.

Here we are going to my favorite burger place!

Playing piano songs together.

Enjoying Razzle-Dazzle Crepes.  Also, I like this picture b/c I think I look so much like my dad!

For Easter Weekend, Taylor and I tye-dyed eggs!

It was fun to do something a little different than the conventional coloring.

 And we ate them all....
Egg massacre.

Pretty trash.

Taylor bought me a pretty Easter azalea tree.

Tannin "chose the right" and watched conference with us....while eating carpet.  Her, not us.  I prefer different fiber(s).

Represent lil lizard!

Toad in the hole with Canadian bacon for Sunday Conference breakfast!
