Any Given Sunday

Every Sunday for as long as I can remember after church we all gather at my parent's house for some good conversation, lots of coffee and some delicious food. Everyone and anyone is welcome to come, and with 25 grand kids, and all there friends running around, things tend to get a little crazy to say the least. One thing we can't live without is our big Sunday dinner. We always have to think big when planning the meals because we never know who will show up.  This Sunday we decided to make individual homemade pizza's. My mom had planned ahead and ordered her pizza dough from Sari Aho and boy were they good.

Every Sunday the kids go into the pantry and serve us adults. They usually come out with a menu asking if we want coffee, tea, or water.

Today we started out by getting the kids pizzas made first. Of course they all wanted to help. So I let them take a turn putting cheese on. Notice Kasen on the counter? Yes, there usually is always kids on the counter at some point during the dinner making.


This is a typical Sunday night at the Stenersen house. It may seem chaotic at times, but we all feel very blessed to be a part of it.
