Baked Goods

It's official. Grandma & Grandpa can't leave. Child care, baked goods, clean dishes, home cooking--they think they can just leave after spoiling us all?! Seriously, they are THE best parents-grandparents ever. I asked my mom if she could make me some more zucchini bread I could take to camp and this is what she accomplished this morning:

Yes, one loaf is already missing 3 pieces courtesy of Micah and I. Delish. The zucchini was given to us by some church members--we received lots and they were HUGE. Thank goodness Grandma was around to help make something yummy out of them. We are also enjoying fresh baked bread & rolls (with freshly ground wheat I might add), homemade cinnamon rolls, and whatever other goodness she thinks up. The kids are thoroughly spoiled with excessive attention and treats. And why do they live so far away again?!
