Tanner's Sports Camp!


Kinley loves reading books now! It is one of her favorite things.


I had never made apple pie before and wanted to try it. I ended up trying this one with streusel on top  from Sally's Baking Addiction. Trevor said it "had a good bake."


I finally caved in and bought an Instant Pot after hearing all of my friends talk about how great it was. I got it on sale from Kohl's and figured I would just try it and see if I liked it. Turns out, everyone was right, it's awesome! It cooked this Café Rio pork completely in just 1 hour.


Maddie usually takes showers now but Tanner was having a bubble bath and she was dying to play with him so I let her go in. They were in there for hours!


Tanner at his sports camp!
It was at the rec center and it was really fun. Tanner did really well and had a great time.



Maddie wanted to make something for dinner, so I suggested she make some scrambled eggs. She did everything by herself (with my supervision, of course) and did a great job!


She said they tasted delicious

At the end of each day, they would do something fun, like play with the parachute or climb through this tunnel thing. On the last day she brought out balloons and had them hit them with fly swatters for about 15 minutes. The kids loved it! And Maddie and Kinley got to do it too!

Tanner said his favorite sport was basketball and his favorite thing about basketball was the dribbling



Made this cheesecake in my Instant Pot too! I was a little scared because the pan I had is bigger than the size that is supposed to go in there, but I just squeezed it in, and it worked great!

She sleeps great on our bed for her naptime, and likes it all to herself.

And that is what we have been up to the last few weeks. I am excited to try more things in my Instant Pot! I can't believe Maddie starts 1st grade next week!!!

  1. So the Instant Pot is as good as every says, huh?? Makes me want to get one! All your food/treats looks amazing! And I totally want to steal the balloon/fly swatter idea from Tanner's sports camp! Sounds like it would tire the kids out pretty good!
