We went to Sunday School for the kids, Bible Study for us, then church for us all. Hubby had to go to work after church, but the kids and I had a nice picnic out by the creek. We took out a big quilt and the 4 of us had a great time, just watching the chipmunks hop on the rocks, the wrens flying back & forth to the feeder, observing insects and watching the clouds float by. Talk about relaxing! And God blessed us with another beautiful day, yet again. Thank you, Lord!
Tonight's dinner is passed down from my Dad. We grilled out 'Pop Pop burgers' and served them up with some steamed broccoli. Pop Pop Burgers are made as follows, with no exact measurements:
1 1/2 lbs ground sirloin Approximately 1/2 cup bread crumbs Approximately 1/2 cup diced onions Approximately 3 tbsp. Worcestershire sauce 1 egg salt, pepper
Mix and form into patties. Grill!
What do you like on your burgers? Anything different like bean sprouts, won ton noodles, french fries? We're pretty traditional here, cheese, ketchup, mayo or BBQ sauce.
We do not watch television in our home, but the kids do get to watch some DVD's here and there.
Our kids love BOZ the Bear! http://www.bozthebear.com/home.asp Through fun stories and sing a longs, BOZ teaches many wonderful lessons in a faith based manner. There are stories about eating healthy, exercise, Colors and Shapes, ABC's and 123's just to name a few.
All stories put emphasis on the family bond with the children Drew & Gracie and their parents. You'll see how they are involved in their church, serve others in their community and teach the children to pray. BOZ also has a great Christmas DVD for purchase, all about celebrating our Savior's Birth.
The website has games, coloring pages and EVEN free lesson plans (great for homeschooling a preschooler)! http://www.bozthebear.com/church/
Check out the website and preview a few episodes to see why we Love Boz in our house and we know you will too! You can purchase the DVD's on the site or possibly at a Christian Book Store. We ordered ours from straight from their site. Good, wholesome entertainment reinforcing God's word.
