Recent Cakes

Ok. My family has informed me that I am VERY far behind on our family webpage. Things have been really busy. The doctor cleared me after my back surgery and I have been outside working in the yard every nice moment I can. Shane's first surgery on his kidney stones was not successful so he had to have another. (Taking care of a husband in pain is not really fun!) I will try to catch up.

Dora birthday cake for my niece Lauryn.
Baby shower cake for my sister, Jamie. She has a frog theme and had twin baby girls.
Speed Racer birthday cake for Quincy.

Hunting Eggs at Grandma's House

Quincy found a lot in Grandma's backyard.
Win did well also.
Nate learned the game quickly.
Win tries to steal from Nate.
The Grandkids show off their goodies.

Coloring Easter Eggs

Nate got into this much more than we thought that he would.

The whole gang posed with their eggs. (Amberly had help with hers!)

Sliver Dollar City, Branson

Above and below - just the right place for Quincy and Win.

Nate enjoyed the Frogs - one of only 3 rides he was big enough for (they still made me ride with him!)
Quincy and Win were tall enough for almost everything. Here they are about to take off on the Powder Keg. Win is on the other side of Shane. They thought this roller coaster was awesome.
Touring Marvel Cave inside the park.

Hiking the Lost Valley trail in Arkansas

Quincy climbed into this hollow tree that still had leaves growing on it.
The boys pose for a shot.
The end of the trail is at a small cave that you must use flashlights to climb back into. Once all the way inside there is a large room with a waterfall. The only light was from our flashlights and the camera flash so the water is very hard to see. All three boys climbed back into the cave on their own. They thought the bats that we found hanging in there were pretty cool.
Family shot at a small fall on the loop back out.
Snack break.

Polly gets a visitor.

There were 3 puppies in Dolly's litter. My Mom kept the smallest - Dalilah. Shane wanted to have her over for the week to see if Polly would be happier with a playmate. So far they would rather play with eachother than the boys. Polly is a little jealous and when I went to rub Dalilah's belly Polly quickly laid down on top of her.

Win's Birthday

The cupcakes he wanted for school.

Blowing out the candles on his Transformer's cake. I hated doing this cakes. He wanted me to make the transformers 3-D out of icing. I printed them on icing paper and put them on fondant pieces and they faded really badly.

Opening the gifts.Quincy was not happy with the amount of transformers Win received.

First time on a Horse

The boys went to a birthday party recently held at a horse ranch. They were able to take a turn on a horse. This was the first time on a horse for both of them.
Quincy loved it.
Win was upset to ride the horse that was being led but since his feet did not even reach the stir-ups I was glad I made him go this route.

Nate thought the horses were really cool.
The cake I made for the birthday girl.

Polly's snack Time

Nate loves to feed Polly her treats. This is a favorite part of the day for both of them!!
(I know the boxes look awful - we still have to get an extra-wide gate to put here.)
