Happy Father's Day 2010

Here is the Kitchen Table. McKayla set the table and helped get all that ready.
Parker made the scrabbled eggs, and I made the sausage patties. We also had some awesome wheat bread that we had left from the trek we went on the day before. We made toast with it. We had so much fun making him breakfast.



Here is the most current picture I had of Jason. I love it!! He was just chillin' on the 2010 Trek we were on the last three days. We were chosen to be Ma and Pa for a family. He was amazing to the family we had on the trek. All our kids loved him.

This is the frame that McKayla and I made for him on Saturday night. We love Jason so much. He is an amazing Dad and would do anything for his kids. You Rock Jason!

Hall Bathroom Remodel!!

What do you think? Any suggestions? I want to paint the walls, but I'm not sure what color yet. My kids want it to be a bright bathroom. I'm open for suggestions.

Here is a few pictures of the redo of my hall bathroom. I wish I could find a picture of what it looked like before. My computer crashed. So what the cabinet is made out of is oak. I then just painted the cabinet black. I also added a black frame on the builders mirror. It looks so custom.

I added the simple silver knobs to the cabinet. I think it makes a huge difference. What do you think? You can click on the pictures to enlarge them.

This pictures shows how I framed the builders mirror. I had lots of scrap trim from when we remodeled our house. I love the results. It changes the whole look of the bathroom.
I love the progress I have made on it so far. I have to take pictures of the cute little towel rack i made. It has three hooks on it and the kids have to hang there towel on it each time the use it. They only get that one towel a week. It has been working so far. They each have a different color so there is no confusion.

Banana Bread Delight

McKayla made Banana Bread for the first time. She got the recipe book out and choose the recipe. She made this all by herself. It turned out amazing. I think she surprised herself. She even shared some the the Varsity Scouts later that evening. Jake H. loved it so much that he had seconds.

I think her bread turned out almost better than mine does.. Great Job!!

She love going to In n Out, and the Girls that came with her. They were all so sweet to her. She loved all the gifts they gave her. They all knew the perfect gifts to give. She love it! Thanks girls for being a part of her birthday.

Happy Birthday Fondant Cake!!

Here is McKayla's Birthday Cake. I asked her what kind of cake she wanted this year and her reply was I hate frosting. So my next question was well there is Cheesecake? No I don't like that either. She hates to much sugar. So I thought how about a Fondant Cake. Well to my surprise I learned alot.... I have never made a cake like this until now. I asked a few people if they had made them and only 2 people had done it. So I googled as I usually do.



Here I am with a great big smile on my face! It was so fun to make this with McKayla. She loved it even thought it was far from perfect. We both learned a lot about fondant. Next time we make one it will be much prettier..


Here is McKayla proudly holding her cake that she loved to pieces... Happy Birthday Kayla.
