Fondant and Art


Brady was on a kick the other day and really wanted to make some fondant and decorate a cake.  He was relentless, so I conceded and this is what he came up with, (with a little help from Brooke.)  Turned out pretty good!  Sleds, snow, trees.  Perfect for a sunday in january!  

 A couple of days ago Beckett told me he wanted to draw a yak.  Ummmm ok? Not sure where he came up with that, so I pulled up a picture on google and away he went, he "messed up" on this one and so stopped at the front shoulder, but holy cow! this was all done just by looking at the picture in front of him.  Now we all know he definitely did not get that skill from me!

Brooklyn or Emree?

Brooklyn or Emree?
Just thought you all might like to see how much Brooklyn and Emree look alike, its kind of scary actually! Especially that Emree wears all the clothes that Brooklyn used to wear, I better make sure I get the right name to the right picture in the scrapbooks...well photo albums anyway. This is Brooklyn when she was 10 months old!

First day of School!

Funny Story 1

Well I haveto share this funny story about Brooklyn. There is a little girl in our primary who got her appendix out shortly after she was baptized and showed Brooklyn her scar, so here is Brooklyn's conversation with me the other day. Brooklyn: "Mom I don't think I want to get baptized." Me: "Why not?" Brook: "It's too scary." And I'm thinking she loves the water, what is the problem? Me: "Whats scary about it?" Brook: "I don't want to go to the hospital and be cut open after I am baptized." I started laughing!!! "You think everyone has to be cut open after they get baptized?" Brook: yes, Jenny did and she even showed me her scar. So I had to explain to her that that was not part of getting baptized, it just happened that it was close to the same time with Jenny. I thought it was so hilarious, you never know what your kids are actually thinking!!

What a handsome boy!
