Baby New Year

Out with a bang is what I say. Well baby Tarzan woke up with 2 Pink Eyes this morning and a snot mustache. So long story short, we left the doctors office with a cold, pink eye, and a double ear infection. WOW.....My day just got longer. With that said, he is doing quite well. Now that he is in bed, my still sick hubby and I are ringing in the New Year by watching the original Planet of the Apes. My Lil Smokies in a Blanket were great and I am finally having my first beer. I better enjoy it as I know that I am next on the sickly block. BTW, I did mange to get another cake in today amongst the craziness.

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!!!!!!!!

Year End Reflections....Kinda like Beach Confessions..

Christmas came and went. We had one great Christmas. Tarzan got just about every toy know to man, I finally got my tv for the kitchen and my hubby got his PS3. As if that was not enough, the day after Christmas we went to Sam's Club to buy our new HD tv. It is huge and it is awesome. So to recap, new furniture, tvs, gaming systems and toys were acquired by us in the month of December. Very fortunate. I have been pumping out the cakes as well. I did 4 for Christmas and just finished another Snowman loaf and have a Birthday cake to do tomorrow.

We are staying in to celebrate the New Year and yes we will be watching our huge tv. I am making my first New Years day dinner, very complicated-- hot dogs and sour kraut!!

Currently my boys are sick. One with a cold and working on Pink Eye and the other if pulling a double header... I am keeping my fingers crossed that I don't catch any bugs. I can image having my Dad come and sit with us sick folks. Posted are few pics of Christmas and Cakes. Enjoy. See you next year.

Finally done

Well, lots of exciting things going on. We got the new furniture and got rid of the old last Saturday. Our living room looks great. Now my hubby wants to move the fireplace and get a new TV. We finally got our tree decorated last night.The tree has been in its stand now for what 2 weeks+. But it is finally decorated. We had to put a gate around it so that Tarzan will not try and climb it. He saw it decorated this morning and cutely said "Hi" to it on his way to the kitchen. On tap today: wrap presents and make a giant gingerbread house. I will post pics of the house when it is done.

Tis the Season

OK, so my wonderful husband came home today with his Christmas bonus. It was a very nice bonus so we decided to go ahead a get our new couch and love seat. I am so excited.!!! finally to be rid of our huge sectional couch. So being the cheap Mom that I am, I have listed both the coffee table and sectional online for sale. The listing started last night at $300 for both. I have had no calls so I just reduced it to $250. I am planning on reducing the price daily until it sells or I have to give it away. I will post pics of my new living room set after it is picked up, which should be on Monday or Tuesday.

It's been awhile

I have been very busy and have not had anytime to blog. So I will do a quick catch up. We got our family Christmas tree on Saturday. Tarzan had a great time. I think that he wanted to run about freely on the the tree farm and set up a makeshift crib area in a dead tree stump..I also make another cake in a Longaberger Basket theme. I am really getting antsy and am missing my classes. I have my first class the first Tuesday in January and then I should be able to start instructing the first of February. It has been hard to find time to do cakes, but I still try and fit at least one in a week. Christmas tasks are getting done slowly. Tonight I did my cards. The house and tree still need decorated, cookies need baked, and I need to finish shopping. I guess that I did not get much done. I am still waiting to see if I placed in the Wilton cookie contest. I would love to get some of the Wilton prizes that are offered. Well it is almost 10:30 and hubby is still not home from work. I bet he is tired and I hope that he got something to eat. Later....
