The Christensen Capers: Life and Death

The Christensen Capers: Life and Death

A couple of things

I don't know if anyone still looks at this........since no one ever posts anything but I just wanted to let you know that my mom and dad started a blog so that we can see things that are going on in their mission the site it  

bonnieboo49.blogspot.com
So go check it out they already have some pictures on there!


Ok so the second thing I have to say is that I made one of my recipies from grandmas cookbook while I was at my moms a while back and it was so nasty........I might have messed the recipe so let me just tell you the right way to make it.

It is the Pumpkin Pie Crunch.......and it is so good if made right:)

1 can of solid pumpkin
1 can evaporated milk
3 large eggs
1 1/2 cups sugar
4 tsp pumpkin pie spice
1/2 tsp salt.........this is where I went majorly wrong!
1 pkg yellow cake mix
1 cup chopped pecans
1cup butter or margarine
whipped topping

Then the steps are all the same:)  SORRY if anyone tried to make this but try it again this way and it will taste like it should!

In the Blink of an Eye

So much has happened in the last few years in the Darrell and Diana Christensen family that we feel like those years have gone by in the blink of an eye! And now we have even more news to report. On June 17th 2011, Jeremy proposed to his LONG-time girlfriend Junnel DeGuzman. They are ENGAGED!!! Many of you have met her and therefore understand why we are all so elated! We have grown to love her dearly and are very excited for her to officially join the family. They are planning to marry in 2012 (yes, another Bear Lake year) so stay tuned for the date. That means that all of our children have married within four years of each other! We never expected that since their ages are spread over eight years. But life is so unpredictable.

VERY soon there will be another addition to our family too as Katie nears her delivery date (July 30th!). We really can't express just how excited we are for that! Darrell and I are absolutely beside ourselves at the thought of being grandparents! That's another thing we never expected! Talk about time passing in the blink of an eye! Although we are excited to be grandparents we certainly don't feel old enough. We may look it but if so, we are in denial about that. We still see ourselves as young and sexy (we were sexy once, weren't we).

We are so very thankful for our family, including all of you! We really are so very blessed and are excited for all the wonderful things that the future holds for our family. It kind-of seems like we are on a roller coaster ride, and the thrills just keep coming. We know that the same could be said for all of your families as well.

Much love,

Diana

Sky Movies Action & Adventure UK - NEW IDENT - 2011

This fall some family friends got hired to do a commercial for some big UK movie company. They needed 100 horses and some "wranglers" so Shawn and his brothers went a long for the ride! They shot their part in Monument Valley.....and even though they are brief (at the very begining and end) I thought it turned out kind of cool. Shawn is the first cowboy in the last scene to come onto the screen. Anyway I just thought I would share:)
