Ashlie's Cake

Ashlie (our niece who lives with us) turned 21 on Feb. 13th! I wanted to make her a fun cake, especially since I'm not good for much these days! I can see way too many imperfections, but, hey, it was my first guitar.

FUNNY BOYS

*These were some hearts Luke made with dirt for Curt and I one day when he was playing out in the backyard. Such a sweet kid.

*Luke told me the other day..."Mom, if you were my same age, if you were 6 too, I would marry you because your face is just so cute! I would Mom. Really, I would marry you." (Obviously I had some explaining to do)

*This is what Ty loves and why...in his own words transcribed by his preschool teacher Ms. Dieu. So cute to hear what goes on in a 3 year-old's head!

FAMILY PICTURES!

I have to thank my friend Stephanie for taking these photos of us and Ashlie for coming along to help with kids! Steph did an awesome job and even put together a cute slide show on DVD for us! I really do have great friends. What a lucky girl I am.

Jake was not in any mood to smile, as you can tell. Ty was such a big boy and sat very still (for the most part). Luke was his usual photogenic self and had fun posing for Steph.

And best of all, we survived! The kids were all in one piece when we were through. Amazing.
