Cupcakes


I decided to make cupcakes for our new neighbors that have recently moved in. I tried a new kind, it is called Hot Chocolate Cupcakes. It was fairly simple to make, but for some reason they didn't rise very well. The boys had fun helping us deliver them and they were both very excited to come home and eat one of their own.

The boys both loved them and I hope next time they will rise a little more.

Guitars


Aaron decided to trade in his Saxophone and get a Guitar. He loves it and tries to practice every night. It is fun to see him so excited about learning something new.

He also got Ethan and Landon this "guitar" to share. Ethan and Landon both love it. I really want my kids to play and instrument and I think the Guitar is a great place to start.

If anyone wants to rock out with our family we would love to have a jam session together.

Kangaroo Zoo


Last week we went to the Kangaroo Zoo with Wendy and a little boy she tends. It was our first time there. They have bouncy castles, and slides to play on as long as you want. Ethan loved it, but Landon wasn't to excited. Landon is terrified of balloons and this was kind of like that. It took him awhile to go by himself, and most of the time he made me take him up the ladders, but that was ok because I had a great time going down the slides with my little man, and racing Ethan to the bottom.


It is so much fun playing with the boys. Ethan has a great imagination and we were constantly running from Storm Troopers, or fighting off some sort of bad guy, or pretending we were camping and being chased by some wild animal, or riding down a river. It was truly an enjoyable afternoon. Both the boys were exhausted by the time we left and they both fell asleep in the car on the way home.


Thanks for inviting us Wendy. We had a wonderful afternoon and can't wait to go again.
