Better Late Than Never ... Kids In The Kitchen

I know I have been slacking on my Kids In The Kitchen post ... but who would have thought that summer would be just as busy if not busier than the hustle and bustle of school year activities??? We are fortunate to live in a place where everything is just a jump away, into the second week of summer and we've been busy with the beaches, water parks, playdates, vacation bible school and more!
And because of our busy schedule I decided to post something SOO SIMPLE! I've said it before and I'll say it again, Kids In The Kitchen can be fun even with the simplest of things!

For fathers day we made Joshy's favorite foods, Tilapia, green beans, italian bread, and baked potatoes. Lu JUST LOVES "snapping" the beans she did the WHOLE package, was content and joked around the whole time! I love how she took a "manoutnoues" task and make it fun!

Please Link all your kids in the kitchen post to the comment section. If you have things you did while we were on "break" feel free to link those up as well!!

Big Ol' Dirt Cup

I thought this would be fun to share with you all! I was asked to bring a "kid friendly" dessert at a Memorial Day get together we went to. I decided that it be fun to make a dirt cup, and instead of buying all the small individual cups I found this BIG bucket at the dollar tree. It held 2 large boxes of chocolate pudding, 1 large container of whipping cream (whipped up), 3/4 pack of oreos, and a pkg of worms ... and it was ENTIRLEY GONE! the whole thing! We served it with the shovel too, but we had to switch to a spoon because the handle on the shovel wasn't long enough! The kids had a blast with it!

Happy Birthday Lu!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY my little Lu!!! May you always be happy and healthy, you have blessed my life more than words will ever begin to say! We love you!!!
