Sunday morning breakfast

Breakfast every morning must begin with the morning tea. This morning I had a classic black tea purchased in Iowa City...it was a great start to the morning.

I decided it was time to make aebleskivers again. Aebleskivers are a Danish pancake ball. Last year Leland bought be the pan for my birthday, our first attempted was pretty challenging but after we learned the technique it became a staple in our house. It is a fun change to traditional pancake.

Turning the aebleskivers with a shish kabob stick.
Waiting to turn them again. It takes one quarter turn...and then later on another quarter of turn.
Waiting in the pan to be eatten. It was a great breakfast. Aebleskivers with homemade strawberry jam, yummy Sunday morning breakfast.

our first southern wedding

This past weekend we went to our first wedding in the south and we had a good time. It was more like weddings in the north than different. The mission was the same, to have Courtney and Stephen married at the end of it.

They are two students involved in Chi Alpha. This past year I have had the joy of mentoring Courtney, she has a great heart and an amazing capacity to love others. It was great to watch them go through the process and be there as they begin their life married.

Here are some pictures from the event.

pretty flowers

The invitation made me laugh. Neither one of us like to be called by our titles but when I see them together it makes me smile...we are not normal.
