A Happy 31st for the Luv

The kids worked hard on your banner and decor the night before.
And enjoyed first tastes of your cake.
Next morn we picked you up at the airport and the babes worked hard on your requested breakfast.
CharLee was anxious for you to open your presents. . .so you opened a few.
Loves for Daddy!
We went to the Lisonbee's to celebrate that night, because your lil bro was receiving the priesthood to serve his mission. A bunch of good lookin' honorable Lisonbee men.
CharLee made a novel with illustrations of you and all. He is quite the chip off the block. So excited for your Novel!!!!
Mom Bee, Whitney and Jason came to celebrate.
Moma Grand( love having you here!!!) and Lane.
Papa Bear Bee , Grandpa Horse and Lane.
Grandma Horse, Lee, Jo and Soren also came.
Sweet Whitney.
Dad gave you a real MAN's tool. The Lisonbee's always all gather together with such love to celebrate, I love that about your family.
Your cake. . . that was quite the process, but oh so worth it for you.
Sweet CharLee also presented you with his lil (gluten free) cake to blow out a candle.

We enjoyed watching reels of you growing up in the new Bee's theatre.

It was such a beautiful day of celebrating your life. I love you and cherish being your wife. Every moment with you is sweet.

Happy Bday Luv

Baby's Arrival

We officially scheduled our babys arrival.

"Andi"

Andilyn Sage Lisonbee

will arrive

Tuesday, October 20th at 6:30a.m.

4 weeks to go!!!

And so I patiently wait. . . I wonder if she'll look like Beau?

A Plan

With going even more serious about gluten, dairy and yeast free with CharLee; today we are making Yeast free tortillas for future vegan pizzas. (recipe in my Moms book: Back to the House of Health 1). It has been fun becoming more creative in the kitchen. In a way I have been already prepared for this because of my parents educating me. . .so grateful. If I can just find a good recipe for pizza crust I think we'll be set. We already don't have much gluten,yeast, sugar or dairy in our home. Next year the goal for food storage will be to store 25lbs of grain (millet,raw buckwheat, amaranth and quinoa) each month and then I can also sprout or make any necessary flours from these. Plans are in the making:) If you have any good recipes send them my way please:)

Prep for Luvs Bday

This week its prep time for Luvs 31st Bday. It probablly won't entail the party as we did for his 30th but I am excited.

This year I am creating/painting a Red Sox Logo Plaque for his office. This may not seem too exciting, but he has always loved the Red Sox since he was a little boy. He should love it hopefully.

As for his cake. . .his request is a mint ganache chocolate creation. Wish me luck.
