Brent update

Some of you may know that Brent hurt his arm at work last Thursday and had surgery today. If you didn't know, well, now you do! Anyway, his surgery went well and the ruptured tendon in his arm was fully repaired. He has a long recovery to get his full strength back, but the doctor feels that he will regain full strength again. He is staying the night in the hospital for observation and is on a morphien drip for pain right now. I plan to bring him home tomorrow to rest and relax! (If that is possible with two young children!) So, he is on the road to recovery! I think he may be off work for 6-8 weeks, so a visit might just cheer him up! I am afraid he will become bored quickly at home!!

Anna's Two!!

This is ONE of Anna's favorite presents, she even wanted to eat breakfast in it!!


My first cupcake cake!


Here we are "making" Anna's butterfly cupcake cake. Say "CHEESE" I got this idea from my neighbor (Thanks Michelle) when she made one for her daughters birthday. It was really easy an gave me inspiration for making more of them! The only downside....I have TONS of cupcakes left! It took 2 cake mixes to get enough cupcakes to make a butterfly! And I cheated and used icing from the tubs (which took 3 1/2 tubs!!) Talk about LOADS of sugar!! But it was fun and the girls were really into it also!
