Wedding

My Dad and Nancy got married this weekend and I made their cake and cupcakes for the kids. I think they turned out wonderful. Enjoy the pictures!!

Father's Day

Yesterday was a great day. It was Father's Day! Mark is the best father around. For Father's Day, I made cupcakes that looked like baseballs and footballs. Then we went on a 2 hour bike ride where we took a rest at Pizza Hut. When we got home from our bike ride the entire family took a nap.

I hope my dad and a great Father's Day! I love you Daddy!

Enjoy the pictures!

Busy, Busy, Busy

We have been so busy lately. It all started with our travel to Indiana for our annual family picnic in mid-May. Then we headed to Myrtle Beach, SC, then last weekend Jackson and I went to Indiana for a graduation party. We are home this weekend, then the following weekend we head back to Indiana.

Last weekend was the first time I traveled with Jackson by myself. The ride to Indiana wasn't bad. Jackson was a perfect angel, even though it took us 5.5 hours, when it should take 4 to 4.5 hours. The drive home, is a different story. We went to my brother's house and had pizza for dinner and played in the hot tub. Jackson and Fiona played in the hot tub as if it was a kiddie pool. Oh, I can't leave Lux out as she would hang her paws in the hot tub and then dog paddle until Jackson's dinosaurs were within reach and then she would take off with them. It was too funny!

Next week I'll be working on Dad and Nancy's wedding cake. I'm very honored to make the cake. I sure hope it turns out like they want it. :) I'll post pictures!

Then the Fourth of July weekend we are suppose to go with our friends to their cottage. We are looking forward to hanging out with our friends. We always have a blast at the cottage.

I think after that we are staying put for awhile! I'm traveled out!

What a busy summer so far!

Riding Bikes!

This evening we rode bikes in the driverway. Jackson loves to ride bikes! Enjoy!

Mother's Day

I had a really good Mother's Day on Sunday! My boys took me to a wonderful brunch, then we went to the park and played. For dinner I made yummy Spaghetti and a cake. I made the cake with fondant. I like buttercream frosting better...easier to work with and taste better. I love my boys! They ROCK! Here are a few pictures from Mother's Day.

More cakes!

I have made some more cakes...

Easter Egg Hunt!

Jackson participated in an Easter egg hunt at the house. Uncle Greg and Daddy hid the eggs. Jackson did very well finding the eggs. After he was done he turned to me and Mark and said, "More, more, more!" It was way too cute. Uncle Greg went and hid the eggs again! Jackson just loved it!

Jackson Turned Two!!

I can't believe Jackson is already two! Where did the last two years go? He had a wonderful birthday party. The weather was nice, he was able to see both set of grandparents, and his aunts and uncles. We had pizza for lunch and I made him a Mickey Mouse birthday cake and it turned out AWESOME. He recieved such wonderful gifts. It was such a great weekend. Here are some pictures from the party.

I made my own birthday cake...:)

Jackson and Mommy making frosting

Jackson helped me make frosting for my cake decorating class...We have so much fun doing this type of stuff together. :)

Cake Decorating

One thing I always wanted to learn is how to decorate cakes. I decide it was time to cross something off the bucket list...I signed up to learn how to decorate a cake. Here is my first attempt. Not great, but not bad for my first time. If I can get this to turn out I'll make this cake for Jackson's 2nd birthday. :)

Jackson's New Bed

Today Jackson got a new bed. He moved out of his crib to his toddler bed. It's a bittersweet moment for us, as we realize our baby is growing up.

Jackson shoveling snow?

I know it looks like there isn't a video, but hit play and you will see the video.

Jackson and the Mop

Jackson and Daddy made a mess...

Jackson Playing with Chalk Board

We got Jackson a chalk board and he just loves it. He would spend hours playing with the chalk board if I let him. I just love letting Jackson be kid and explore...gives me an excuse to play with his toys! :)
