The past 2 weeks I have been busy with cakes and the next few weeks will be the same. I did a camping cake for a guy turning 40 and this week was a spiderman cake for a little boy turning 5. The next few weeks will be filled with a wedding cake, sweet 16 cake and a little girl's first birthday.
I am enjoying this creative outlet and love learning new techniques. My family love the cake scraps and leftover frosting.
Today Zachary stayed home sick with a fever. The fever has been keeping him contained to the couch. We have been trying to keep the fever down with meds and cool baths. Needless to say he will be seeing the doctor tomorrow.
So Zachary wanted to make sure I knew he didn't feel well today. He brought this message to me today while I was sketching some cake quotes.
It reads: Mom, I don't like being sick.
We found a new show for Wyatt to watch. I think we we're all getting tired of "Max and Ruby". Scott gets credit for finding this show. The show is called Super Why and the main character is a boy named Wyatt. Wyatt and his friends read books to get answers to their problems. It is on PBS and thank goodness they have games on their website for Super Why.
Here is a photo of Wyatt chilling in Daddy's chair watching the show. He dances and mimics everything they do, even reciting the alphabet.
It's that time of year again. We love this time of year, with the bluebonnets and red poppies in bloom. Our lovely town of Georgetown celebrates this precious, delicate red flowers. The weekend starts off with a parade, then there is lots of musicians, food and street vendors to take in. We had a blast this year and the kids loved the parade. Our neighbors went with us and this year Holden got to sit up and watch everything.
Elyzabeth had the opportunity to attend the Priest/Laurel Prom that the church puts on for the older kids. I wish this was started when I was in High School. It provides a great time plus an extra event to where your formal attire to. Elyzabeth was excited and we are fortunate to have several hair dressers in our church ward. They volunteered to do the girls hair and makeup. The girls looked absolutely beautiful.
Georgetown every month has a market days where local vendors can setup on the square. Today they had an Easter egg hunt for the kids. We had a blast! Wyatt got into the spirit and filled his basket up with eggs. The kids also had fun in the bouncy house and on the train. We love living in Georgetown, where there are so many activities we can take the kids and enjoy being together as a family. Elyzabeth also got some really cool feathers in her hair. Stay tuned she as the Priest/Laurel Prom this evening!
Last night while Scott and I were bathing filthy little boys, Elyzabeth was cleaning the dinner dishes. While cleaning dishes she somehow noticed some tiny fish swimming around the bottom of the fish tank. She immediately came to get me and the search was on for how many fish. We also noticed the big black and white fish isn't so fat now, this would be Zach's fished that he named Luigi. Hmmmm might need to rethink the name now. Here is a picture of a few of the little guys. Baby fish count is now up to 8. We now have a total of 13 fish. Wow!
