We Made Ice-Cream Yesterday!

As a last day of school activity, Amy's class made ice-cream and her teacher was kind enough to send the recipe home with the kids.
Of course, she wanted us to try it.
Who cares that it was about an hour before dinner, right?
It was the last day of school.
And that calls for a bending of the rules!

Fill a gallon size baggie half full of ice cubes.
Add 6 tablespoons of salt.
In a smaller baggie add
1/4 tsp of vanilla
1 tablespoon sugar
1/2 cup of milk
Seal the smaller bag and put it into the larger bag. Seal the larger bag.
Go outside, in case a bag breaks.
Shake. Shake. Shake.
(for about 5 minutes)



Get Mommy in on the shaking because Jessica got tired.

While waiting for the ice-cream to form, Jessica took Mommy's camera and took a shot of Buster who was cooling off in the grass.

When it looks like this, it's ready!
Open carefully, grab a spoon, maybe add some syrup and sprinkles...
and EnJoY!

Yummy!

The girls had a great last day of school.
Amy's teacher even put together a short video of pictures she took of the class throughout the year, burned it onto a dvd and gave each student a copy.
One of the songs in the presentation was You've Got A Friend in Me. 
One of my very favorites, ever!
Yes, it brought a tear or two  to my eye.
So sweet!

Summer Vacation has begun!
