Clowns

Taylor went to a birthday party this weekend for her good friend Taylor and she brought back 2 clown noses.  Tay and Evie sure make cute clowns.

Rice Pudding

Today, I attempted Grandma Till's Rice Pudding.  I wish I had a recipe but I gave it my best shot. 

RICE PUDDING

1 1/2 C. cooked rice (refrigerated to cool)

2 C. Milk

1/3 C. Sugar

1 tsp. Salt

1T. Vanilla

1 beaten Egg

1 dash Nutmeg

1 dash Cinnamon

Vanilla Beans

In a heavy saucepan cook rice and 1 1/2 C. Milk, Sugar, Salt and Vanilla until thickened (about 10 minutes). Stir constantly.   Add beaten egg, cinnamon, nutmeg and vanilla from 1 Vanilla Bean.

Refrigerate.

Enjoy.

I love and miss Grandma Till.  It's a nice thing to have nice memories.

Fireworks

We enjoyed the fireworks show by the City of Tigard with the Nelson, Ross and Gifford Family.  It was the perfect spot to watch fireworks and play!

Fourth of July at Hillshire Creek

We LOVE our new neighborhood. One of the highlights of living here is the 4th of July Parade with a fire engine as the lead car.  Most people on our block purchased flags from the BSA Troop in our Ward and the street is lined with flags.  Taylor and Hallie dressed up their American Dolls and tossed candy to the onlookers.  Kenzie, Evie, Stephanie Broberg and I walked the parade route.  Lots of neighbor friends joined the parade.  After the parade we had a BBQ with our actual neighbors and their neighbors.  We love it here.  What a fun tradition to look forward to.
