Warped!

I made chicken pot pie with corn bread dumplings for dinner last night. 

EVERYTHING from scratch even the white sauce and no canned veggies! 

It turned out beautiful -

and tasted delicious. I even got a, "that was good" from Mr. I don't like Chicken Pot Pie (Xander).

But I forgot to take a picture of it when it came out of the oven until most of it was eaten. So the picture came out like this. I told Paul that doesn't look very good-

He said wait, Here's your shot-

Nice and gross! I guess we have a pretty warped sense of humor over here in the Trueman family! Keeps us real and LAUGHING!

non·judg·men·tal

: avoiding judgments based on one's personal 
and especially moral standards

This year my word is nonjudgmental. I want to work harder on not quickly making judgements about a situation or a person. Accept something for what is, is...and move forward without judgement or criticism. 
How do we truly understand what is going on without delving deeper? 

Tonight we had the missionaries over for dinner.

 After a nice refined dinner we decided to mix it up a bit...

 NERF WAR!!!!! 

 Sister Williams showed no mercy for older ladies 

 or dogs!

 How's that for an action shot?!!

 Ha! Xander takes advantage of the situation while they reload!

 But Sister Cannon prevails in the end! 

Who knew you could have so much fun in a skirt? 

We LOVE the sister missionaries!

Am I a ...?

We have a new family favorite- 

 

 Do I have four legs?

 Can you eat me?

 Am I large?

 Do I make a noise?

Am I an animal?

Do I live in the desert?

Put on your thinking "hedbanz" and have a good giggle. We sure did!

The calm before the storm!

Their LEAST favorite picture of the entire year!  

 We ran out of stocking this year so Uncle Michael got a sock...with a hole in the heel. 

 Anything good in here?

A few of our favorite things:

Okay so Xander was so fast I didn't even get a chance to see him opening his Lego Mindstorms. A great morning was had by all.
