A couple of Sundays ago, we thought it might be fun if everybody brought a dish from their mission. It was too bad that Brent, Luke, and Blake weren't there to add food from Cambodia, Russia, and Florida, but we will get them next time.
Didn't really have to do with dinner, but it was a rare moment where she looked calm and innocent :)
Abigail and I making cheese empanadas from Chile, while listening to Dolly. She's the only one in the family that shares my fantastic taste in music.
I was a little proud of myself, they turned out quite delicious, which I guess you could deep fry anything and it would be delicious
Cheering us on, while we make empandadas
We have....
Som Tam and sticky rice from Bangkok, Thailand, Jed's mission
BBQ chicken pizza from San Jose, California, Dad's mission
Hmong stirfry from Minneapolis, Minnesota (Hmong speaking), Matt's mission
cheese empanadas from Santiago Chile, Ben's mission
Everything was SO good, even if a little spicy! Jed said he toned the Som Tam down for us... can't imagine what it's like at full force spiciness!
My Grandma made dessert, which she got the recipe from a lady, while her and my Grandpa were serving in, Hartford, Connecticut.
Luke and Beau with ice cream faces
tickle torture
This picture cracks me up! Abigail is pointing at Adam, while obviously tattling on him, and Adam's just laughing. I love the look on his face!
Oh, and Luke's wearing his favorite outfit (I know, boys don't wear outfits) He likes polo shirts with bb shorts, and he especially likes the solid red.
This was probably our last outside dinner of the year, it's been a great summer!

That was such a fun dinner!! And I think I still taste the fish sauce from Jed's dish! I think it's hilarious that Adam couldn't care less that he's being tattled on.
Loved the photos. Wont it be great when we have dishes from ALL of the missions. That was a great idea Meg. Thanks
Cute pictures! That was really fun and your empanadas were delicious.
You and Abby look like an add out of a magazine... whipping up something in the kitchen, so fun!
Great idea! I may have to steal it.
What a fun idea! And you had such a wide variety from so many different places.
