Springtime

The bunny is out......


The chicks are about....

The flowers are in bloom....

Lots of flowers are in bloom...
I even attempted to make "Bunny Cookies"....
They turned out OK, but they were lots of work....
I only have one thing I really want to say.....
Welcome spring!!!

Lots of Cammi

Lately I have had no one to take pictures of. So on a Sunday when all the family was together for Jenny's birthday I told Cammi I would pay her a $1 if she would let me take pictures of her. She agreed! When I tell Cammi to smile she does a really cheesy smile so I have to tell her I am going to tickle her and then she does her cute smile! There are only a few of those but there still cute!
I like some better than others but, here they are!























By the way - This is my 100th post!!! :)

Blog catch up

So I've missed some stuff I never blogged about so this is going to be my Catch up post.

Evan Started out Birthday month!
The next party was for Ryan!
St. Patty's day included this picture, wearing green, and a green dinner!
Next was Cammi's 6th Birthday! We went out to breakfast, came home and started opening gifts. Her favorite gift was an American girl doll, Kit!
Cammi loves Giraffes so we bought her this funny hat.....
And a matching tail!

Then was the family party for Jenny!

And a couple extra pictures.......

Evan's Bird (he finally named it Scott), is getting used to our house and Evan! He loves to climb on Evan and cling onto his neck like the picture below.

And since were talking about pets this is a picture of Roxy I took recently.

Oreo Cupcakes

I got this awesome cupcake book for Christmas. It has the most simple, easy, yummy, mouthwatering recipes for cupcakes! I have already tried out lots of recipes from this book and they don't disappoint!
Yesterday I made these Oreo cupcakes.They were SO good. They have an Oreo inside them and half of one on top. The frosting was not very thick and good for piping (which I did), but it was so yummy! We brought them to a scout auction, so sadly I didn't get to keep that whole plate.

Really they were amazing!

Don't you want one??? :)

Six for Saturday

1. We have a new pet! For Evan's 12th Birthday this week he got a blue parakeet. Pretty, huh?!

2. My dad had a business meting early this morning in by Old town in San Diego so last night we got a hotel and did some stuff and spent the night. Last night before it closed we went to the Mormon Battalion and then we went again this morning. They have a new thing that you can take a picture and then email it to yourself!


3. Today we had a rehearsal for a stake youth choir. We are putting on a fireside with music and narration called "Let the morning come". It is all about Joesph smith, and we are putting it on tomorrow. It has great songs! To see more about it and listen to some of the songs click HERE.


4.For the last 5 - 6 months I have been preparing, practicing, practicing and practicing for Certificate of Merit for flute! It was today.... I think I could have done better, but I am SO glad it is FINALLY over!

5. I spent a lot of time looking at the Bake it pretty site. I LOVE all the different kinds of sprinkles!! Take a look HERE! The only thing is that shipping is pretty expensive... :(



6. Tomorrow is Sunday, and we have 9:00am church, and I'm tired, so I guess I'll be done with this post!

"February" Collage

I promised my "February" collage.... So here it is! The pictures are not in any order of the right date, but that's okay. It was really a big pain to do this collage and then get it to post on here (Really it was!), but I hope you enjoy it! I just realized that most of my pictures have to do with Nature or food!! :)
