Visit from the O'Briens


Our long time friends, the O'Briens were able to visit us on Thursday and we had a very nice time together.  We ate delicious chicken alfredo that Melissa made.


Dad just told me that he used to call us the three musketeers.  


Mom and Mrs. Kathie had a nice time, I think.  They talked quite a bit.

haircuts


So today both Melissa and I got haircuts!  Our very generous friend cut our hair.


I'm donating my hair to Locks of Love to make wigs for kids who don't have hair.


I have a really short ponytail now.  3 or 4 inches.  It used to be like 15 inches long.  Like a whip.  I would turn my head fast, and hit people in the face with it.




So our hair is about the same length now- just above our shoulders.  We both really like it.

Ravioli

This is for Auntie Steph.  Because we finally made ravioli!  We used the cutters that she gave us.  


We also used this old pasta machine that Mom has had for a long time.  It worked really well, though, once we had it figured out.


We used a recipe that we found on the internet, I think, because we lost the recipe Auntie Steph gave us.


It was alot of fun making them.  Clara and I eventually figured out a good system, like an assembly line.




We also made fettucine with the leftover pasta dough, when there wasn't any of the cheese filling left.


The ravioli made a really yummy Valentine's dinner!
