Family Pizza Night

Tonight we started a fun, new Friday night tradition! Normally we would just get a movie from Redbox and maybe order pizza, but earlier this week Justin had a brilliant idea -- Friday will be "make your own pizza" night!

Nathaniel looked forward to it ALL WEEK LONG! And planned out exactly what he'd put on his pizza the moment we decided to do this. His toppings were sauce, cheese, pepperoni, spinach, bell peppers (because that's what Daddy likes), and carrots (because Nathaniel is a carrot-fanatic). Kind of a strange combination, especially for an only cheese kinda kid, but he was so proud of his creation and insisted that we all try a bite. (The carrots actually weren't that bad).
 
Gabriella and Lillianna also loved putting together their pizzas. They each spread spoonful after spoonful of sauce on the dough and LOTS of mozzarella cheese (both on their pizzas, and in their mouths). They might've got a little carried away. :)
It was a little messier than I prefer -- a 23 month old spooning out her own sauce, a three year old piling on handfuls of cheese, a seven year old who...ok, he wasn't that messy, but Daddy DID splatter sauce all over the back splash by the sink. The messes were worth all the smiles though! And we all look forward to next Friday even more. 
 
Daddy had fun too! :)
