My purpose

Dinner time in our family has always been an important time for all five us to sit together an unwind with some great food and wonderful company. Since the start of our relationship Chad and I have always enjoyed spending time together in the kitchen. Chad has a great passion and talent for food, and he has definitely passed on his love of cooking to me. Some of my favorite memories are around the table. For the next year our challenge is to write on here each night about our dinner experiences, and of course the recipes. When the year is all said and done our hope is to turn the blog into a keepsake book for each one of our children. I hope they always remember the importance of eating dinner as a family.

AT LAST!

The Menu

Simple Spaghetti


Chad started his new job today. We are really happy because he will be working a lot less hours, which means he will be home every night for dinner and no more weekends! YAY! It was nice having him walk through the door as I was finishing our spaghetti. Spaghetti is definitely a favorite in the Kelton house, we usually make pasta at least once a week. Jaxson is still sick but he is slowly getting better, it was nice to have him up and about at dinner time. Things are beginning to get back normal again. Tonight after dinner we enjoyed watching Madagascar 2 followed by Despicable Me.
