Fondue and a visit from Grandpa

Grandpa came to visit us last weekend
and I am always looking for ways to get OUT
of having to cook! So I thought what a
better way than to have him make
us Fondue! Dad has been making
fondue for as long as I can remember and
my kids love it just as much as I do.
I know it just looks like cheese and bread
but it is sooooo good and it amazingly fills you
up! We always think that we might have
cut up too much bread but we always seem to
gobble it up! whoever there are 2 rules to eating fondue:
1. If a girls loses her piece of bread in the cheese
she has to give the boys a kiss.
(Im sure you can imagine what my boys think of that)
2. If a boy loses a piece of bread he has to buy a
round of "root"beer!
(For some reason Grandpa always breaks that 2nd rule)
A round or "Rootbeer" for all of us!
Thanks Grandpa! We LOVE you!

House in progress

For those of you who have been to my house know that it's STILL
a work in progress......we have doors to hang,
trim to finish, bathrooms to finish, closets to finish etc.
Well this weekend we finally got my pantry shelves done!!
The first two pictures show what I have been putting
my food on for the last 5 yrs. Yes these shelves were
inside the pantry but i didn't get a pic of them before we
pulled them out. Now I have tons more shelving and space
inside my pantry.....now we just need a door...like I said
a house in progress!
