Jeremy's not-so-subtle hints about roast beef, mashed potatoes with gravy, and corn being his favorite Sunday dinner finally won me over (again!)
Now, admittedly, in the 9 plus years of marriage I am not known my delicious roast dinners. They usually turn out tough and dry, and on top of that butter has been my natural substitute for gravy. Not delicious!
So, personally I didn't have great expectations out of the roast that was being slowly baked in my oven while I was in church. I was just thankful that the lessons were fulfilling!
When we got home, I checked the roast and to my absolute amazement, it wasn't dry or tough, it was just right. Then I splurged by cooking up some gravy (from a mix, of course). Needless to say, dinner was a pleasant surprise, at least until we found out that the roast was only about half as big as we need! I am in shock at how much the boys eat - and they're not even teenagers yet! We are currently accepting donations of any type to survive their future growing spurts! :0)
All of my boys looked so handsome, so we took a few pictures; after sorting out the outtakes we found one that is decent enough to share!

Holy Schmoley those boys are handsome!! So, so cute!! Ruth couldn't cook until we started going to church either. Hope your new ward was good.
I LOVE Noah's vest! They all look so cute, though! Congrats on the great dinner. I'm too scared to try one of those yet. :)
Ugh, cooking dinner for a whole family can be stressful sometimes! I guess that's why peanut butter and jelly sandwiches were invented!
Our new ward was so good, once we finally found them! We have to drive to a different building even though we live right across the street from one! Silly boundaries! But, yes, the ward is wonderful!
