Ramblings

It's been a while, but I haven't had much to talk about...still don't, really. We're working, waiting and wishing for summer weather!! I'll be done school next week and then starting a summer job the following week. It's hard to believe another school year is done! I'm still hoping that I won't have to start another year...but I know I was hoping for that last summer too, so only time will tell. C'mon referral!!

This past Sunday we were able to share with our church about RUN 143 and our adoption and it was very encouraging. We just continue to be blessed by the support of so many family members and friends. Thanks everyone!

As we wait, I've continued with my new-found hobby of making cupcakes. Some have definitely turned out better than others, but it's been fun! Here are a few samples...

These were much harder to make than they might look...don't think I'll be making those again!


Our class had an "Oceans" unit so I thought these might be fun to eat


Easter Bunny cupcakes





These might not look appetizing, but I think they were the most delicious...carrot cake and cream cheese icing! The candy on top was also yummy :)








These also totally didn't turn out the way I was hoping, but that's okay...I'll know for next time.


So, as you can see, I am filling myself with lots of sugar!

I can feel myself starting to get anxious again as mid-July approaches. We're not sure what to expect because, if you've been following us along the way, you know what it's been like. Surely things will start moving again soon, right?

Have a great rest of the week!

  5. Great job! I did the Chinese Food ones for Kaden's 9th birthday - they were a huge hit! And why wouldn't they be with all that frosting & candy??? I'll be doing the Karoke ones (p 66) for last day of school tomorrow for Jolie.
