Life is Good

I'm back from the dead.... kinda!  I'm sorry I've been MIA.  I got super yucky sick this weekend off the cough syrup medicine that my doctor prescribed me for night time.  Such a bummer.  So... in retro-spect, I feel much better, even though I feel EXACTLY like I did before I took it.  Funny how that works.

So, this morning, as I was getting ready for work, it dawned on me that I haven't done any type of exercizes since Tuesday? of last week.  That's a whole week of nothing.  I'm a total loser.  Need to get back on the ball.  But, on the postive side... I haven't done anything that could re-injure my leg.  Yeah me!

Well...  I am still a total loser.  I did some stretching (thank you Rachel! :o)  )  Tuesday was super busy with church meetings, and I didn't get home until super late.  Last night was busy with more church stuff and baking.  I know this isn't the "Fastbaking Blog"; however, I have yet another cake picture.  I made this cake last night as a going away gift to a friend and co-worker who thinks she is allowed to move to Washington. :o(

I was also attempting at baking the cakes for Melanie's first birthday (I'm having a little party for her on Saturday).  It was a disaster.  I measured the batter exactly as the cake pan said, and somehow it over topped... burning on the bottom of the oven and ruining both that cake and the other cake that was in the oven.  I will have to attempt it again tonight so that I can decorate the cakes tomorrow.  Don't worry...  I will post pictures (not that you were worried.  I'm sure all of you are sick of seeing my cakes on here).

I hope everyong is having a great Thursday!

Okay... here are pictures from Melanie's party today.  First, I'm going to start with the cakes.  This is Melanie's personal 1st birthday cake.

This is the big "everyone else" birthday cake.

Of course, it is all Strawberry Shortcake because of Melanie's red hair.

Okay, here she is digging in.

Here's the after cake picture of the cake she demolished (spelling?).

Here is Melanie upset after mommy washed her face off.

Here she is with her new toy from Papa Terry

And after the 2 min drive home LOL

Too much fun!!!

Thanks for letting me show up my pictures with you.  I hope that's okay!
