S U M M E R T I M E!!!!!

Summer is so great for me this year! Last year kinda stunk ....I was huge pregnant...it was HOT...I was working! But this year has started out great. My mom is home for the summer and gives me that much needed break from my busy body sweetheart of a daughter! The pool at my parents house is heated and now perfect to go swimming almost everyday...it took a few times for Kacey to warm up to it but now she is loving it. I will have to get some pictures of her in the water. The only problem is that when she is in the water I still have to be in arms length....so I haven't been able to get action pictures in the water yet.

Although a bit of a sad note my parents are going out of town for 2 weeks this morning....we will miss them soooooo much!!!!!!!!





OH....ON A TOTALLY DIFFERENT SUBJECT!!!!!
ALESHIA'S BABY SHOWER

It turned out great and was a ton of fun to plan with Mindy. We had so much fun doing the invitations and diaper cake together. It was a lot more work than I thought is was to throw a shower but was totally worth it, I don't think we would have made it without Pam Beck's help to finalize the day. It is always fun to go to a shower and see old friends. I didn't take my camera so I don't have any pictures....but Aleshia and Mindy posted some. It was my first time to make a cake for an actual event....I really enjoyed it. Mindy sent me this photo.
Oh and for those of you who tried Pam Beck's Cheese Ball I have the recipe .....SO YUMMY:
CHEESE BALL
2-8oz. cream cheese, softened
1 small can crushed pinapple
green onion and green pepper chopped fine
1cup chopped pecans

Mix all together except pecans, shape in a ball, then roll in pecans!

THANKS PAM

Being pregnant during a Texas summer really does stink! I'm glad I didn't have to go any longer than May this time because I was already dying of heat.

We haven't braved the swimming pool yet. How nice to have a heated pool in your back yard!

P.S. Your cake turned out so good! Almost too cute to eat, but it was too tasty not to either!
