family camping trip

in June we went with Jan and Janzen, Kevin and Dianna, Amanda and Jed camping at Woods Canyon Lake outside of Payson. It was COLD and my child would not sleep in her own sleeping bag. First time for me to sleep in a tent. It wasn't bad, but was happy to be home sleeping in my own bed. We played a game of baseball with the kids boys vs girls and the girls won. Boys were not very happy. Janzen taught all the kids to shoot a bow and arrow. They had craft time, then played a golf ball game that was really hard.

More cakes.

I can't believe he has done some many, it started in 2008. He gets a little better with every cake he does. Amanda and him make a great team.

older cakes

These 3 cakes were made April 16 & 17 wow! What a LONG day. The bob and larry cake and hannah montana guitar were made for friends of mine for their daughter. And the LA Kings Hockey cake was made for my brother Chris on his 41st birthday.

fun with cakes

My husband was pretty busy this week making cakes. He made a graduation cake and a star wars cake. For my daughters birthday party, my best friend made the cake and cupcakes and planned the party, yeah she's pretty awesome. The truth is because my husband was taking FOREVER on the star wars cake. We had a great birthday party. I like cake but now have had enough for a while. My birthday and Amanda's birthday are around the same time so we will definatly have one more in July.

Horrible week

I am so glad this week is over. It has been the worst week ever. I have gone to two funerals for two amazing people. I am sad they will not be in my life any longer. I am sad for the children who are with-out thier parents.

Then another cousin of mine has a seizure on Wednesday, and to top it all off there are little squabbles going on inside another side of the family. Honestly, I couldn't take anymore on my plate after the funerals. I am really looking forward to having the time to reflect on what matters most in our lives and how to cherish the memory of the two that have gone from this world into the next.

Last night we decorated 2 cakes and this morning still have one to do.

time marches on.....

Animals

Marty came in with a swollen eye today and on a sunday. Luckily Calypso has some allergy and antibiotics left over from one of her many trips to the vet. So between the two medications marty's eys is less swollen and less watery. Yeah. Saved money on a trip to the vet. another day of meds and he will be good as new.

43 years

I recently took a picture of Doug's Uncle Ken and Aunt Muriel. They are close to celebrating 43 years of marriage. This is very uncommon these days. It is a treat to be around these two people. Here is to the 43rd Anniversary party and a sweet couple.
