Just like Mom

Isn't this so cute!
It drives me crazy when I read or hear people say that we teach our children to play with girl/boy things. I always think to myself "then you must not have any children!"
Rachel always wants to do whatever I am doing from drinking from the same glass as I am, even though hers has the same drink .... to doing makeup right next to me. I admit that at times it can really get on my nerves but at times like this I love to watch her play pretend mommy.
She was so cute to get the diaper and wipes out all by herself, it was all her idea too. Do you ever wonder what is going on inside their cute little heads?

Ben and Amber

Thank you Ben and Amber!
We had so much fun taking their picture the other night. Trenton and Tyler did such a great job, and I even forgot my coolest photo toys. I was so proud of them. I love them so much.
Amber had introduced me to the "Duck Park" (as we call it) a short time ago and at first site I told her that I HAD to take some ones family picture there. She was so nice to let it be hers.

I DID IT!

Happy Birthday Grandma!

It was my Grandmother's 80th birthday this past weekend! We had an incredible surprise party for her that I was asked to make a three tiered cake for and I was thrilled for the opportunity. I had never made a cake of such size but I am pretty stubborn and set my mind to do it. I had made a two tiered cake before so the theory wasn't new. If you would ever like to know why your wedding cake cost so much give me a call.
I was completely surprised at how well it turned out! I love that feeling of setting your mind to something and having it turn how just how you wanted. And now I can say that "I CAN!"
Thank you Derek for all of your wonderful support! I Love YOU!
