Please....
I am so sorry that I have not blogged since May 20th! It makes me want to hide my head in shame and try to tell you about how busy I was those last days of school, how I have enjoyed my days since school was out, and how I am now busy preparing to leave for the beach on Saturday. My computer is going with me, and I promise to blog while we are there and make sure I post pictures. Can you please forgive me?
Love,
Amanda

I suck....
I think I may have a budding photographer on my hands. What do you think? Time flies by so quickly- one moment they are babies, and in the next moment they are doing this:
You can't see her, because I don't post pictures of other people's children without their consent, but Sophie's friend that lives across the street was riding with her. This friend is a foster child, and is relatively new to the neighborhood, so when they were riding Sophie was practicing her traffic signal knowledge and introducing her to everyone. They would ride a little ways, Sophie would scream, "RED LIGHT" and then when they had come to a stop I would hear her say, "This is my house." Then, "GREEN LIGHT" until they had reached the next house, where she would let her friend know who lived at that house. While it sounds like they had a great area to ride around, the truth is that it was just in our little cul-de-sac. It was hilarious! I am going to leave you with some pictures from Sophie's first ragball game. She looks so cute!

Breaking News: I am still alive!
Yesterday, my friend Amy and I decided to try to make some cake pops, as seen on Bakerella's website. We were going to try to make the chicks, and probably a few cupcake bites- but it went all wrong somewhere. These things are super cute, and I was so excited, only to be let down when it wasn't working. But after careful examination of the tutorials on Bakerella's site I would like to say that I think that it may be user error. I don't like to admit defeat- so that may be why it really ticked me off, but now I may understand why it didn't work out so well. Also, to Bakerella: I am sorry for my Facebook status yesterday saying you were a liar- I was just a little frustrated. Hope there was not offense taken (who am I kidding- this is someone who has been on the Martha Show- she isn't caring what I call her- she doesn't even know I exist!).
If you would like to know what NOT to do when making cake pops- just ask. I can give you some pointers!
