Apple Pie Bake-off

Welcome to....The K's 1st Pie Bakeoff! First, meet the contestants:

First: Sasha. Has made a number of pies before, loves to bake and is up for any challenge.
Second: Sam. Has made 2 pies before. Was not very happy about this challenge (note the face).
Meet the Apples.
Our contestants have made their crusts and fillings. The product before baking:

Sasha's
Sam's
The JUDGES: Alex, Danielle, Ralph and Myrna Alexander, Jess and Josh
The verdict: TIE. Sasha's crust and consistency of apples were better, but Sam's taste and creativity topped it off.

Join us again soon for yet another ___Bake Off.

The report is IN and I'm OUT, thank you for joining me. Have a good day!

yes, I know, we have no pics of the judging or finished product, the pies were eaten in the same night. Thank you, Mr. and Mrs. Alexander for your help in judging! :-)

The new look is here! We've been pretty busy, but stay tuned for posts this week including: An Apple Pie Bakeoff!

Have a great weekend!

Under Construction/ Name that blog!

The blog is under construction for a couple of days--new header, template, etc.
Please bear with me as I get everything pretty and perfect again!

Please pray for all of the families and friends of the 88 who died on Sunday (CNN reports here). A plane crashed early Sunday morning. No one survived. Two of Masha's friends were on that flight. Please pray for her during this hard time.

Homeschoolers!

Babysitting-

Yes, we can be goofy...
and decide not to smile...

but we had a blast Sunday night! Mom went out to get her hair done and then out to dinner. Meanwhile, we did a load of laundry, cleaned up the house, chopped peppers, ate, watched Flushed Away, played some games, read and went to bed! Josh and jess are so much fun to babysit, always well behaved, in a good mood and willing to do anything. Well, not always. Ha!

Welcome to the blogging world!

I would like to welcome my cousin, Rachel (who is the best ever!), to the blogging world! Check out her family blog: here . Take a minute to visit their blog and post a comment! Love you, Rae!

Decorating Rooms

We had some old cork boards that were going to go in the trash, so I decided to decorate them and spruce up our rooms:

Jess's school one: she got to hang whatever she liked

Josh's room one:
Jess's room one:
The next two are for Sam's room:

Happy Monday!

After school snack

I love hanging out with my sister...she is the best (Mash too, but she couldn't join us for our peanut butter 'n fluff shared sandwhich)!

Trying to take a self-portrait with all of us is pretty hard...these were the only shots of all four of is being somewhat in the picture! :-) In the end, we asked mom for help!

i think jess's face is soo funny!

A trip to the firehouse...

Mom took the kids to the firehouse in CT this summer...Jess was there, but for some reason didn't make the pictures.

Happy {very belated} Birthday, Sash!

I had a very good birthday this year celebrating with family. My dad suprised us the day after and flew in to CT to be with us for our last weekend there! Here are some pictures from when I was little:
