Happy Birthday Uncle Matt!!!!

It's funny that it was Uncle Matt's birthday but the children had the best treat of all.. homemade pretzels!!!
Getting the dough:

 Forming the pretzels:

 They always make some "interesting" pretzel shapes!  MD made a dumpling one!

 Then they learned to make some braided ones:

 Uncle Matt giving a lesson:

 E gives it a try:

 The first batch is out!!!!

 Getting the second batch in:

 Add butter then salt:

 The moment they were waiting so long for.... the final test!!!!

 trust me.. they approved...

 The room was quiet!!!

Uncle Matt, thank you for helping us make the best birthday pretzels EVER!!!!  Happy Birthday!  We look forward to spending Friday with you to celebrate your birthday.
