Gelato

On Sunday, one of the things we talked about was the importance of little things like family night. Lester and I have been pretty good about this within the last year, but of course, there is always room for improvement...and really it shouldn't be that much hard to do that, since its only just the two of us! So this Monday, we decided to read a talk together given originally by an apostle of our church. It was good to be able to talk about our thoughts and feelings on it, and see from each others perspectives. Then, we used a recipe from a book we had gotten a while ago called Scoops. We made a Belgian Chocolate Gelato and while at first I was a little worried, it ended up turning out AMAZING. Lester said it was one of the deepest tasting chocolate gelatos/ice creams he had ever tasted! SCORE! Then we played Sequence, one of our new favorite games that my Grandparents had gotten us for Christmas. Even though it was only an hour, it was the perfect break and reminder of how blessed we are to be together and of how sweet even the small moments are!

  2. Thanks Gabby! Thats one of the few things I'll miss about Idaho..the $9 Paul Mitchell haircuts haha!

    And ya, the ice cream attachment is awesome..you basically stick it in the freezer, then when your ready to use it put the special ice cream paddle on, and it churns it while freezing it! We love it. Some day I want to get the pasta making attachment!

    Also I loved the bookcase picture of your daughter from forever ago..so adorable!
