My little fashionista!



Rylie dressed herself yesterday...who knew that Stripes, plaid and stars would go so great together. She is definitely a trend setter. Now if someone would just fix her hair to go with her outfit.

No running at church



Mom always said "no running at church" apparently there is more to it than just being reverent.



Today at church Rylie learned the hard way that they don't make soft cinderblock.



I was in the hallway between relief society and sunday school today when someone came up and told me that my daughter was in the bathroom freaking out with blood all over her chin. I hurried in there to find Rylie crying hard while a teacher was frantically wiping her mouth, face, and hands with wet paper towels. She explained that Rylie was running down the hall when she fell down and smacked her mouth on the corner of the cinderblock wall. OUCH!
We brought her home and tried to look at it to determine whether or not to take her to the Dr. Evan pulled her lip out (which was adventurous) to see that it was split all the way down the inside of her lip. We decided to call and get the nurses opinion which was that it would heal ok on its own and that they rarely do stitches inside the mouth. She may be losing a tooth a little earlier than usual though. She keeps telling me that her front top tooth hurts too. We'll see.

The perfect day to bake

I started the day off with making zucchini bread. I have two huge zucchinis from my "pumpkin" plant. I made 2 loaves of bread and only used about half of one of the zucchini's. It is pretty yummy with chocolate chips.



Then I moved on to make some wheat bread. I've never made wheat bread before so I thought I would give it a shot. My mouth is just watering at the thought of freshly baked bread with homemade strawberry jam.



I finished the afternoon off with making some fresh salsa. Again, I found myself with more tomatoes than I knew what to do with. I went outside and picked fresh tomatoes, and fresh jalepeno peppers. This salsa is so easy to make and it tastes so good when made with fresh vegetables.



You can just call me "Suzie homemaker"
