2011 Recap

I know this is long overdue but here it goes! 2011 was such an amazing year. Vacations, hubby doing so well and going back to school, kids doing well and growing SO fast!! I am so lucky to have such an amazing family and great friends. Of course we always have our ups and downs but life has been great!!
Here are a few of my favorite things 2011!!

Cupcakes

If you know me, you know I love cupcakes. I love everything about them! The cuteness they can be the yumminess, how you can personalize something edible... Oh cupcakes oh I love you! One day I hope to open my own cupcake shop. No any cupcake shop but an old 50's diner cupcake shop! The other night we had girls night and we decided to have everyone bring treats and just hang out all night! Well thankful for me this amazing website... Bakerella had these yummy cute looking cupcakes!
I decided to make them and they turned out perfect! Thank you Bakerella for all your amazing idea's and your fun website!

I have a 8 year old!

Makenzie turned 8 on July 22nd! Crazy to think how fast time has gone by and how much I can remember! It is really like I remember everything with her. I remember going to the hospital to get my labor started... It seems like just yesterday.

This year has been wonderful for Makenzie. She has a great 2nd grade teacher and she improved so much by being in her class. Makenzie also lost her first tooth this year... Actually her first 4 all within a week. I am so lucky to be her mommy and to get to go home to her and her sister's everyday!!

Here are a few fun things about Makenzie....

She is a good big sister
She loves to read (Specially to her sisters)
She is SO good at Math
She is a cuddler
She loves to help me out when I need it the most
She loves animals. Specially the dolphins
She loves to sing and dance
She loves to help with yard work (Even mowing the lawn now!)
And most of all her favorite thing to do it BAKE and COOK!!

Kindergarten Graduate!!

Ashlynn has graduated from Kindergarten. I love that her school did a little program for them. It was so cute. Makenzie went to another school for Kindergarten so she was never able to get the ceremony like Ashlynn. It was super cute, they sang songs, did tricks and made everyone smile. Ashlynn also felt pretty cool and loved with all her family there to support her!
