Homemade Ice Cream

It is homemade ice cream week in the Kassel Castle! Laura’s favorite is Mint Chocolate Chip, and it is now in the freezer.

Tomorrow, I will make Coffee Ice Cream for me, and Blueberry Ice Cream for Andy. That will be followed by Oreo Cookie Ice Cream for John. If I have time, I will also make some Vanilla Ice Cream. We will be eating some tasty ice cream soon!

Senior Pictures

I purchased three of Laura’s Senior Pictures today. This is the drape picture that will be used in the yearbook.

This is the cap and gown picture.

And, this is the “silly” cap and gown picture.

I love all three of them, but I still cannot believe that she is old enough for this.

Vacation

While Andy and Laura are at Camp Hohn for the evening and John is helping to clean out the Scout trailers for camp, I am looking for either a VRBO or Airbnb for a short vacation to Michigan and also a condo at Copper Mountain Ski Resort in Colorado. There are definitely some good options out there.

Refrigerator

I found myself staring at the front of the refrigerator this evening. I know that seems odd, but it really tells a story. The kids’ birth announcements, our yearly Christmas card, a picture of Andy with Grandpa Blume, and the kids at a football game are on the left side of the refrigerator. The rest of the refrigerator is covered in magnets from the various places that we have visited. It makes me smile and I love the memories. It is our story.
