Chocolate!

Courtney gave me her recipe for chocolate buttercreme icing. How delicious! So for my great-aunt's b-day I just had to have it, so she got the vine cake. Last night I had my graduation from course 2. The finale is the flower basket cake. I thought I did pretty good. The basket weave is complicated but not hard once you get the hang of it and the flowers are all Royal icing I had piped earlier. Course 3 starts Monday. We'll see if I can master fondant and tiered cakes. Wish me luck!

Graduation

So summer's here which means school's over. Personally I'm overjoyed to not have to hit the road with 3 kids by 7:30 each morning, but I'm not ready to be home with them all of them all day either. Arthur "Graduated" from the 2's preschool group and Tyler allowed me to experience the joy of field day with him. (he just caught a water balloon.) He was so proud that he got the teacher at the dunkin' booth. He's got a pretty good arm.

Thank You!

On the 2nd, my sweet boys were 6months old. What angels they are. Dallin in the literal sense and Reid is the best baby I've ever seen . He's grown so quickly. You'd never know by looking at him that he was a preemie. How grateful I am to my Heavenly Father for the both of them. Every time I hold Reid in my arms, I count my blessings. To be a member of the church and to know that I have the opportunity to raise Reid now and the blessing to one day raise Dallin, means more to me than words can express. So I take this moment to Thank my Heavenly Father for the amazing gifts he's given me.
