Fun Creations

4th of July Cake
My cousin posted a link to this on her FB page, so of course I had to try to make it :P
Chocolate Pineapple Rum Cake
I have been taking a cake decorating class with my Mom. When we were finished, I decided to recreate my favorite cake growing up. My parents used to order this cake for my birthday from our favorite bakery. For my first go at it, I don't think I did too bad :)

Ian's Dance Festival

Every year Ian's school does a Dance Festival. Last year each grade danced to music from a certain decade. This year each grade wore white T-shirts that they painted. All the dances were so cute, and Ian had so much fun doing it. I just can't believe how big he is getting. He is such a great kid and a huge help to both Brandon and I. He is starting to turn into such a little man :)

Our Dancing Diva

This is Audra's first year in dance, and she loves it! This is her in her Jazz costume. Her class took 4th place at their first competition and 3rd in their 2nd competition.
This is Audra in her lyrical costume. Her class took 1st place in both competitions!

Family Pictures








We were very lucky to get some wonderful family photos. It's been a long time since we have had actual family photos taken (usually we just have the kids pictures taken). I am so blessed to have such a wonderful family!!!

Birthday Boy!

At first Neville would only pick at the orange icing around the cake. Brandon had to dig Neville's hand into it to make him start eating the actual cake. As you can see once he started he had no problems eating it.
This is the cake I made for everyone else to eat. It was fun to make!
This is the cake I made for Neville.

Barnyard Boo

Last year we went to Barnyard Boo at Thanksgiving Point and the kids had a lot of fun, so we thought we would do it again this year. The kids did a lot of fun games and activities, pony rides, and we all went on a wagon ride. This is Brandon and the kids on the wagon ride.
Neville and I waiting for the wagon...

Audra loves to ride and pet the pretty ponies!
Ian loves to ride the ponies too!
Neville just chillaxin' in his stroller while Ian and Audra ride ponies.
One of the crafts was a mummy made out of a tootsie pop. This is Ian with his...
and Audra with hers.
It was definitely another fun year at Barnyard Boo!
