On Tuesday, August 21, 2012 was the first day of school for the girls! We officially have an 8th and 4th grader in our household! I fought back tears after I dropped off little sister to school (we walked together with our dog Jagger). Big Sis recently got contact lenses. She is very happy to not have to wear glasses to school any more! They are growing up too fast!
In the evening, we made dinner plans with the Sleaper family since Pam was in town from Texas. We shared our favorite treat a sweet and sour apple snicker salad!
Apple Snicker Salad
1 bag of Granny Smith green apples (10-12 apples)
1/4 c. lemon juice
1 (16 oz) Cool Whip
2 (3.4 oz) packages of vanilla pudding
2 c. milk
1 (11.18 oz) bag fun size snickers
Directions: Chop the snickers into small pieces, set aside. Cut the apples up into bit size pieces and place them in a bag with lemon juice. The lemon juice will prevent the apples from turning brown and add a refreshing lemon"tart" flavor to the salad. In a large bowl, whisk together the milk, pudding, and cool whip. Add the apples then fold the snickers in last. Allow the salad to set up in the refrigerator for a couple hours before serving! Yum!
Although it was the first day of school, we played like it was a lazy summer day by swimming and boating with the Sleaper family on Utah Lake. What an A+day!
