the party decor...
For Kaylee's first birthday cake, Grandma Kip made her yummy homemade chocolate ice cream swirl cake. It is to die for...
For a snack/centerpiece I made this rice krispy flower pot. It was so much fun to make. I used colored chewy mentos as the centers, and green long sour gummies as the leafs. It turned out really cute. One suggestion if you make this make sure you make the flowers really thick so they will stay on the skewers, some of mine were too thin and slid right off!
I made this little poster for Mae Mae the girl above reminded me of Kaylee and the girl underneath reminded me of Mckenzie.
I also did a little combo glass candy jar with colored candies. And I labeled my drink which was limeaide mixed with sprite, so people knew what they were drinking, plus it's a cute way to decorate.
What turned into a small little project turned into a bigger project. I started off making her a normal sign and then I got idea upon idea and I crafted and crafted until this came out! I love it so much I am going to laminate them so I can use this banner again. Since I spent so much time on it. I guess I was needing to fill a crafty void at the moment!

Thanksgiving Day...
Thanksgiving has come and gone, and so has my family. We were so blessed to be able to have them come out from Utah to join us (even if it was for 3 short days). We had so much fun just being together and hanging out. Steve made the turkey which was really impressive and the rest of us all pitched in to make the meal a delight. Bette's yams are always one of the favorites of the meal.We also got more aquainted with the WII, especially Sky's g-pa. He was so fun to watch at tennis.. We did miss Kip & Katie who were in Utah and my bro. Robby (who is now devoting his life to delivering christmas packages for Fed Ex..who knows he may just drop something by at your house! I love the holidays and I am so grateful to be able to share it with those I love most!
