Sunday Dinner

Eating as a family is important. My friends liked to tease me about it growing up - there was never any question what time our family was eating (7:30, noon and 6) and I went home to eat lunch until I graduated from high school (our house was a block away). I loved it! And it was so nice to come home from church on Sundays and smell "Sunday dinner" cooking (Sunday dinner = roast, potatoes and carrots).

Our family eats together almost every night (although one of my goals for 2009 is to get better organized in planning our meals). And I'd like to get back to taking Brady to Sunday School more regularly and going to the "music" service, but I don't have "Sunday dinner" down yet.

I love this pic of the kids helping my mom cook on a Sunday morning before church (I have a couple great ones with my mom in them for our photo albums, but thought she might hurt me if I shared them on here since she's in her housecoat? :) They are so busy with their individual tasks (Brady still talks about the bloody meatballs Breckyn was making!) and loving every minute of it.
