Have you ever tried to kill your kids by poisoning them at supper? Apparently, I did just that the other night. We had egg rolls for supper...I know, I know...you're probably all throwing up into a bucket at the thought of eating such a vile, disgusting food. After convincing Ally that the egg roll would not be her demise, she was told she had to eat at least one half of an egg roll. She sat at the table for an entire hour to get that thing choked down. But I will have you all know that she is still up and walking and seems completely unharmed from having to digest such an awful meal. Since this attempt at "poisoning" my daughter didn't work, perhaps I'll try liver and onions next week!!!
The pinewood derby brought out the creative side of a couple boys this year. As you can see, Mater and Lightning McQueen made an appearance. Lucas' car is the red and Cole's is the green. Neither of the boys took top honors, but they did well and had a great time.
We had Mortensen Christmas on New Years Eve this year at my mom and dad's. Here's a picture of all of the Mortensen great grandkids, minus my brother's son, Maddox. We're getting quite a gang together!! But aren't they a good looking bunch?
