Saving a seat for Elijah (again)!

Ahh the life of a youth director's wife, always interesting and never according to plan!

One of our youth volunteers has a son in the military who was home for Christmas.  We had a great time playing games with them Sunday night and Fig suggested inviting them over again last night.  So Lydia and I got to work making a snack. . .we decided to make Reformation Day Bars (they used to be called Halloween Bars but Halloween doesn't exist in the Glenn Palmer Household).  Well, around four pm Fig called and said that there was a rivalry game at the local high school and that we should all go to that instead.  We ate early and took off for the basketball game.  We watched the JV game and then half of the Varsity game but ended up leaving at half-time because of the little girls. . . At the game we had randomly gotten a call from my cousin (who lives in Iowa).  We didn't check the message until we got home and found out he was at Calvin and wondered if he could stop by with his fiance to say hi!  We said sure and around ten they showed up.  The night turned out differently then we originally thought it would but we had fun and shared a yummy snack with them! 
Here's the recipe:

Place a stick of butter in a 9x13 pan and turn the oven on to 350.  While the butter is melting, crush one package of graham crackers.  Once the butter is melted, sprinkle crumbs into the pan to form the crust.  Then add 12 oz of choc chips (one bag) and 6 oz of peanut butter chips into the pan.  Pour the entire can of sweetened condensed milk over the pan.

Bake at 350 for 17-20 min.  Let sit for about 45 min (if you can:).  Good warm or cold.

Joanna was a huge help. . . she entertained herself by taking a sock and shoe off, emptying the Tupperware cupboard and gnawed on kitchen utensils Lydia threw to her!
