homeade Poptarts

As a kid I loved poptarts still do and so do my girls. I recently seen a friend of mines blog saying she tried her hand at making them to no avail they didnt turn out as she had planned. The ladies I work with have started making them and I got to sample a strawberry one yesterday and oh my was it so very tasty here is where they got the recipe from hope this helps shannon willcutt.
On the strawberry use pie filling and use food processor to make it smooth.

a mumbled jumbled blog

Lots of things have happened since I last blogged we moved to alexandria,la and got settled in, we spent a wk in columbus,ms visiting with family the girls went to Destin with my sister and her family (while I spoiled the baby) and Molly and Gracie turned 6 & 7.

The girls were unsure about moving but none the less they had to go we got to LA on a thursday and the moving van didnt get to LA until Mon man was that a long weekend. When it did finally get here and everyone started getting settled in they started meeting friends in our neighborhood which took a big weight off my shoulders. Found out they do not start school here until the 17th of Aug which is great the girls arent really excited about having to wear uniforms but they will be fine. Here are some pics of our house.







Mollys and gracies pool party at Grannys we had a good time cant believe time has flown by so fast. The cake was made by Sandy Reynolds in caledonia she did a fabulous job. when we got home on Tues I called The Flamingo Fairy to have a special thing for thurs for Mollys actual birthday I think it is really neat they come in the middle of the night to set it up for the next day so the person can see it. Then we went out to eat for Her birthday supper and there are a couple of silly pics.

Until Further Notice

I am having my internet cut off today because the movers/packers are coming tomorow. I cant believe its here already but I am so glad it is so I can get some normalcy back in our lives. so next time I blog it will be from the bayou :)new pics to come later until next time bloggy friends.

T minus 2 wks and counting

cant believe that in 2 wks the movers will pack,load, us close on new house and then they unload us in a 4 day time. I cant believe its almost here its bittersweet We are all excited to start somewhere new but yet we are all sad gonna miss the friendships we have all made here. 2 wks will fly by and I am so excited about my new NEW house nobody has ever lived in it and it will be mine. Thank you Lord for everything that you have provided me and my family for without you we can do nothing!!!! Heres a sneak peek of the house so far.

hiatus on cake...for awhile anyway

This passed weekend was my cousins wedding and I did his grooms cake which was my last order until after we got moved and settled in. I am looking forward to the break of spending the summer with my family and not worried about whose cake or cupcakes is due at this time.

Fabulous day for a wedding

As most of you know I am a cake decorator. I got ask about a yr ago by a family friend to do her wedding cupcakes and the grooms cake of course I said yes. I had my brother in law make me a cupcake stand that was just simply fabulous wonder if I can get him to make me a square one now :) The wedding was at waverly Waters and was simply gorgeous they have a pavilion there that has wisteria vines covering it very romantic. I am pooped but everything turned out wonderfully and all was pleased so 1 wedding down and 1 to go.

WE'RE MOVING

As some of you know Charlie has been trying to get his own store


for the last yr or so, well 2 wks ago he had 2 interviews and we were waiting on the results on Friday. We went to lunch thought he was gonna tell me then that he got offered the job nope we ate lunch and was on our way back to the vehicle when he got the call they had submitted his name but it wasn't official yet I was jumping for joy I have prayed and prayed and so has he and Lord I think everyone around us has. We are so excited!!! I couldnt tell anyone I was so excited I couldnt contain myself after the final ok then I was telling the world.

THIS IS WHERE WE ARE GOING Alexandria,La



Looking at some houses with swimming pools so maybe that will ease the transition Little better well it will for me at least especially now that we cant go to Florida this yr :( oh well you have to make sacrifices right. I am looking forward to starting this new chapter in our lives in a new state hate the girls have to make new friends and start a new school but they will do fine. Will keep everyone updated until next time.

Snowpalooza 2011

WOW!!! all this snow is enough to drive anyone crazy I actually thought I lived in MS not far up North. This winter it has been some crazy weather as my last post said we got 10 inches here in corinth,ms and it hadnt snowed like that here since1988 and before that 1960 something. As I sit here and blog in the last hr we have gone from a dusting to about 2 inches and we are suppose to get about 5 or so. Looks like there will be snow cream and hot chocolate in our very near future. Please be safe in travels and have fun and enjoy making memories that last a lifetime.
TO BE CONTINUED.......
