Relaxing Sunday

We started the morning off with german oven pancakes. Since I've been more into cooking I like trying new things. I found a recipe for german oven pancakes and decided to give it a try. It bakes in the oven for twenty minutes and it is completely different than a normal pancake. It makes just one 9" pancake. It reminded me more of a giant popover. I sprinkled it with powdered sugar and the kids loved it. It is easy to make and I will definitely make it again although I am curious to see what would happen if I put it in a muffin tin rather than a 9" skillet. Anyway, after breakfast and a movie the girls and I played Uno for the first time. They caught in quickly to the rules and really enjoyed playing. By mid-morning, we bundled the kids up to go outside. It had snowed more overnight so Jason took the girls and Watson out to play in the snow while I went to the grocery store. They were back inside by the time I got home from the store and they were enjoying hot chocolate and playing Uno. We played many games of Uno yesterday. The girls enjoy the game so much I'm sure we will be playing regularly now. We had nap time, which I think Sofia was the only one to not actually sleep, and then off to church. Since my dozing off at naptime meant I hadn't prepped anything to make for dinner after church we ended up going to Guisseppe's restaurant. This restaurant is a new restaurant on our street that has good food. They had been working on the restaurant for a year and finally opened a few weeks ago. It is nice to have a cheap restaurant with decent food so close to us. It was a nice Sunday to get us ready for the busy week ahead.
