Ice Cream Dessert.......DONE!

I spent most of the day mixing ice cream for Braxton and Kelsi's Wedding.  It's a great feeling to have it in the freezer....DONE!  I made 10 batches.  (one more bucket is on the lowest shelf)  MaryLou gave me this recipe and it seems pretty good.  You mix 1 carton of vanilla ice cream with 1 carton of pineapple sherbet.  You add 12 oz of frozen raspberries (thawed) and 4 banana's cut in cubes.  Mix it really good and put in a container and freeze.  Not hard at all but a little time consuming and a little hard on my back.

I want to brag about my girls for a minute.  I have been blessed with some great girls....all with different talents.  I called Trichelle to help decorate a little where the gifts are going.  She has such a knack for decorating and putting things together.  We aren't doing much but I know that with Trichelle's help it will be perfect.  Natalie is the go to gal if we need something baked or cooked.  She made such yummy cookies for Kelsi's shower that she was asked to make more for the reception.  She is also making chocolate chip cookies because she has a good recipe that doesn't go flat.  Natalie is always so good to help out with dinners and is so gifted when it comes to cooking and baking.  Julie is an organizer and cleans up automatically.  I needed lids for the buckets and she found me a bunch.  Julie is also very good at thanking us for anything.  If we support them in anyway she will thank us...she's just very thoughtful that way.  I love these girls so much!  I love how they are all so different.  I am constantly learning from them and admiring their goodness. Kimleighel is like an extension of me. She helps me out how ever I need her to.  She is really good at cleaning things up good and quick.  I count on her a lot.  I look forward to getting to know Kelsi better and finding out her strengths.  She's a sweet heart.  I know I am blessed!

I've talked to a few of my friends that have had a few problems with their daughter in laws.  Some like to stir things up a little.  I am so happy to say that all mine get along and love and support each other.  I think they all respect each others strengths and don't compare....I'm so glad.

♥ I'm really excited for Braxton and Kelsi's marriage!  ♥
