My Future Ace of Cakes

M loves to watch Food Network, especially Ace of Cakes and the Cake Challenge shows, so I shouldn't have been surprised to see this....


all of the kids were playing with Playdoh but long after they were done, she was still working. She told me she was going to make a duck shaped cake. She molded it out of black doh, and it looked really cute. I came back a little later, and she had rolled the yellow out really thin, and as she was placing it over the duck she said, "I learned from watching the cake shows that this is how to do it," she had the fondant technique down, she was rubbing it to get the air bubbles out, meticulously trimming it. She spent a long time rolling out all of the white bubbles. And here is the final project. A duck having a bath. The pink and green things are the shampoo and conditioner bottles.

Who knows, maybe she can be Duff's apprentice!

Love The Style!

On Saturday, B's friend called right as she was getting up, and wanted her to play. She rushed in to get dressed and came out in this. R and I didn't have the heart to make her change. She was so proud of herself. As the mom of the friend said, every possible pattern is represented here!

Peace

I love days that are peaceful, everyone gets along, everyone plays together, everyone is happy, the tv is off (for most of the day). Today was one of those days!
The kids had so much fun playing ball,



building forts,

and snuggling watching a bedtime movie!



It doesn't get much better!

Because

Because I have become pretty much computer illiterate, I don't know how to do links and things. So if you want to check out the etsy site where I bought the necklace at, go here...www.simag.etsy.com. Sorry. You'll have to get there yourself! But check it out. She has some cute things!

I Love It!



Last week, I was blurking on my cousin's wife's blog. She had a link for a necklace that she loved. So I followed the link and found this necklace. I loved it! So I ordered it on Saturday night (Thanks Alan and Ruth and Karleen this is what I bought with your birthday money). It just came in the mail today! The lady was so sweet, and sent a really nice note with it. The necklace came in a cute little box that she had filled with lavender. I can't wait to wear it!
