My mom and I decided to try out a cake decorating class at Michaels this summer. The cakes shown above are the product of our second week into the class. As much fun as it was decorating the cake, we felt there was more fun to be had with them. With Nick's permission, I took the fun to the next level.

Summertime

*sigh* I had such high hopes for relaxing days. frolicking in the pool with the kids. reading lots of great novels as a family. finally starting to learn the guitar. lazy mornings and happy kids. *sigh*

I suppose that the good thing is that this summer has been fun. Really fun I think. . .

We went to 2 family reunions

We went to 1 wedding

We saw 18 siblings (that's not even including sibling-in-law's)

We played with lots of cousins

We went to 1 water park

We ate at 10 different fast-food restaurants

We hosted 4 house guests

We went to 3 different beaches

We stayed in 7 different houses

We drove 5000 miles

AND IT'S ONLY BEEN ONE MONTH!

so much for relaxing . . . 

I s'pose there will still be time for that. Hopefully
