Happy Birthday Corden and Stan!

Today is Stan and Corden's birthday! What did Stan do for his birthday? He got to go on a tow call up in the mountains! It was a fun one from the looks of the pictures that he showed me on the shop camera. Corden had his dinosaur birthday party this afternoon. He turned 6 years old today. He was so excited!
Here's the crew getting ready for some cake and ice cream!

Everyone had a dinosaur egg that they had to dig through to find dinosaur bones to make a dinosaur statue.

They all had so much fun being little archaeologists!

Grandma and Grandpa H. came out to visit before the party started and brought gifts for Mom, Dad, and Corden.

Corden got a new sleep toy. It is the cutest softest buffalo I've ever seen! He has decided to name him Blinky. Thanks to all of Corden's friends for making this such a special day for him to remember! Happy birthday to my boys (The six year old, and the not so six year old!)

Love you guys!

Corden's Birthday Treats

I made these beetle cupcakes for Corden's birthday treats for his class. I think they turned out pretty good. Wish I would have had some mini oreos that I could have cut in half for the heads, but I didn't, so I made do with black licorice nibs instead.
This is the start of Cordens 3D dinosaur birthday cake.

Frosted- but not good enough yet!

Decorated- much better! Ryker got ahold of the head and bit off a chunk of the neck, so this dino has a shorter neck than I had originally planned! I'm just glad he bit off the neck and not the face! Phew!

Happy Birthday To Me!

Can you believe this cake! My amazing friend Annette made this for me for my birthday today! This girl can seriously make the cutest cakes ever!!

Even the inside of the cake was adorable! Snap Annette, you're awesome! Thank You so much for the ULTRA FABULOUS cake!!!

MacKelle and Trace got to come over and hang out for a couple of hours while their Mom and Dad were at meetings tonight. It was time for my kids to get ready for bed so I told Kyler to go and brush his teeth. I heard MacKelle giggling and looked over to see what was so funny! This video is just a little bit of the silliness. I was trying so hard not to laugh. Hope this little video brightens your day!

Mirror Crafting!

Today I crafted something ultra FAB! How much fun are these?! They were plain jane wooden framed mirrors... and now they're super fun, super cute framed mirrors!I am going to be putting them in the main bathroom upstairs. But before I do, I need to paint a wall in there, make a cute shower curtain, find a cute rug, and add some ribbon to the mirrors to hang them. So when I get the bathroom done, which may not be until after May birthdays are over, I will post the whole enchilada!

Kyler's Baptism Day!

So today was a big day! Kyler was baptized today. He has been anxiously awaiting this day. He was so excited! He looks like a little angel in his white baptism suit.

Here are Kyler and Stan before the baptism. Stan performed Kyler's baptism and confirmation. It was a great day! We are so proud of him for making this decision to be baptized. What a great kid!



We celebrated Kyler's birthday with all of the family after the baptism. My friend Annette helped me make this volcano cake for the occasion. It had dry ice in water in the center of the volcano that made it smoke. It turned out looking really great and tasted great too!



He got all 8 candles blown out in one blow! Thanks to everyone who celebrated Kyler's special day with us! What a wonderful day it was!
