Hustle Bustle

Below is a photo of part of the cast from the school musical, The Wizard of Oz. Seth was a soldier, and did a great song and dance that is only recorded on the video camera. As I'm too lazy to walk downstairs and get it right now, this picture will have to suffice. (Yes, I did run five miles this morning, is that irony?) Also on the video cam is the recording of his performance at the school talent show. He played Ode to Joy and Old West Rodeo on the piano. Considering we still have performances at the Cub Scout talent show and a piano recital this week, I think he'll be able to play those songs in his sleep by the weekend.
I made cupcake trees for my niece's baptism. They almost killed me. Now Al wants them for her birthday too.
The fam came for the niece's baptism. This picture well summarizes the visit. Busy happy chaos . . . they can come again any time.
These are the remains from T's dinner last night. He didn't want the bread any more after he buttered it himself. Obviously I was distracted at the time.
It is that time of year again, when I'm going to have to take a hiatus from blogging for a little while (aka blog-cation). There are too many performances, games, parties, birthdays, weddings, field days, etc.
At least we're not moving . . . we'll throw that into the mix next year!
Farewell internets! See you in a few weeks!

Pretty much need that tutorial for the cupcake tree. Except, I don't need anything that almost kills me. Seth rocked as a soldier. And, I LOVE the buttered bread. I think it's ok as long as you eat it with a salad! Cute Thomas!

The cupcake tree was well worth the effort. It is STUNNING! (And it looks like Seth has his "peace sign" perfected just for photos, too!)

Good for you for taking a blog hiatus. I am too! (But I don't have a good reason like you do. I just don't want to.) Good luck with all your busy-ness the next few weeks!
