Again, something changed, and i can't get the words above the picture..so, this is john and i at a diamondback's game. we were in the bright sun at this point! hot!

i have just been making myself take pictures of my kids more often. we haven't done a whole lot of things, but here's a cute picture of elsie running around with arys's giant jaw breaker

we went to the palmer's cabin over memorial weekend. arys went fishing twice and caught nothing! this is grandpa's little fish he caught!

february events

i participated in my first 10k race! i did ethan's run. it was fun, and good training for ragnar relay's this coming weekend! this is me when i finished

this picture below is a night stand that i painted. i don't have a before picture, i wasn't thinking about that one. but imagine it all a dark brown stain. i have a huge stand up matching dresser to do, and a long one with an attached mirror to do. but my next free saturday is in may, so that will be a while :)

i am doing my friends wedding cake in march, and i also did her bridal shower cake. this is something i've come to find out that i really enjoy doing. i'm taking some cake decorating classes, if anyone wants to join me, let me know, it is only 20 bucks for 4 classes 2 hours each!
i know i could have done things a little different to make it look better, but this was the easiest way i could figure it out without screwing it up!

elsie walking

so elsie has done this for about a week and a half now, and i should post all the attempted video's, because i swear every time i tried to record, she didn't want to do it! she'll be 9 months on the 22nd.
