People who say funner don't care that it's not a word!

Wheat Grass Juice

Tuesday, April 6, 2010




We received a wheat grass juicer for Christmas this year from Darren's parents and I think it is the greatest thing! The kids and I get to grow the grass in a tray in the house (great school project). It only takes about 10 days - you can almost watch it grow and it is the most amazing green color (I love green). The kids were so excited to harvest and juice the first batch and less excited about tasting it. If you have never tasted it, it is not something that can be described. It has the strongest flavor, so needless to say although all the kids tried it, they did not ask for seconds. But since it has such good nutritional benefits and the kids really do like to grow, harvest and juice it, we will do it again. Next time though, I will hide it in a smoothie!
The funniest thing was having the young women over for an activity and getting them to try it! They were even more entertaining to watch than the kids! Thanks for being such great sports girls!

Her Happy Place!



Nya LOVES the piano! If I would let her stay there all day and play, she would! She gets very offended if you take her away (I can't sit there all day and I don't want her to fall) and if anyone else is playing she will climb up unto your lap and take right over. She just loves the piano. I can't wait to see what happens as she gets older.
