Ty had an “AWESOME” birthday! I’ll update this post later with more pictures, but here’s a picture of the cake I made. The bottom layer is chocolate cake with oreo cookie filling (yes, the white stuff that they put on oreo cookies). It was fabulous. Here’s the recipe for the oreo cookie filling. I dirty-iced [...]

We had a sort of “Easter weekend” this year. Let me start with Saturday. Since hockey season is over, and we really didn’t have any other plans, I decided to take the boys over to the Home Depot for their Kids Workshop. They were building ‘Butterfly Houses’. The boys love doing these workshops. Unfortunately, it [...]

Cake decorating is a hobby of mine. I’m not very good at it, and often times the pictures turn out better than the actual cake does. But I thought it would be fun, and maybe helpful to someone out there. I know how much I appreciate (and swipe) cake ideas, so it seems only fair [...]

Halloween 2009
The boys had a game, so we started our Halloween with a hockey game. Our team won (they stopped keeping score after it was 4 to 1). Cam came really close to scoring…but it just didn’t happen this week. Here he is taking the face-off (he’s in red): We started this Halloween tradition a couple [...]
39 and Holding

Class of 2010
I can’t believe that my first-born child will be graduating from high school this year. She started back to school this year, on Monday. Her schedule looks pretty tough (Trig, Physics, etc.). Her GPA thus far is a 3.91, and I hope and pray she’ll keep it that high. She started volunteering at a local [...]
*UPDATE*: Our Very Scary, No Good, Very Bad Day!
Thursdays are our “date night”. We refer to them as “Date Days” because our date nights take place during the day. Generally, Date Day consists of me and Scott going fishing. We love our date days. The peace and quiet…the ability to finish a sentence without interruption…not having to dig into the cooler every 10 [...]
Miscellaneous Bits O’ Stuff
I had neglected to blog about these things when they happened, so I thought I’d throw them all into one post. First up, the kids’ Award’s Night and Cam’s Kindergarten graduation: As you all know, Scott and I LOVE to go fishing! Here’s a photo of the Spanish Mackerel I caught a couple of months [...]
