Could I let this day past without a post? We even had a little celebration this morning at 9:26AM. Kayla had her birthday sleep-over last night with some friends, so they all helped at 9:26AM. I made special pancakes this morning (I would have made pie, but we had a Pi party to attend this afternoon and had plenty of pie then). Ashley decorated hers:
The party was held at the house of Ashley’s Wednesday night sensei. He has karate family parties, and we are invited. He made a pizza with smoked pulled pork and a woven bacon lattice on top. Kevin posted a picture to his Facebook page if you want to see it. We brought mini shepherd’s pies (or cottage pies as they were made with beef) and little Pi’s made out of chocolate, white chocolate, and butterscotch chips. It was a lot of fun!
We have also continued to have fun with food! We had cupcakes one night. Can you guess what they are made out of?
The veggies probably gave it away. These are meatloaf cupcakes with mashed potato frosting!
Tomorrow is a big day for Kayla. She will be recognized in church for her confirmation as a member of the church. She also has a birthday to celebrate on Monday! She recently got the happy news that she was accepted to Woodlands Academy for high school. They sent her a cookie in a fancy box.
Kayla has also been taking art this quarter. One assignment was to find a picture of an animal (not cartoon), and use the grids approach to sketch it on paper. No surprise what animal she chose. She did a really nice job of transferring the photo into the pencil drawing!
Ashley continues to be herself, crazy and silly! Here is a video of her from last night.
And here is the video of the girls opening their birthday package from Aunt Tiffanie.
A lot of fun in this post! I wanted to make something for Pi day, but we let it get by us. The pancakes were cute! Meatloaf cupcakes sound delicious too! That’s a cute gift from Woodland Academy, congrats on your acceptance and on your confirmation, Kayla.
I don’t know if the art teacher had dragons in mind as an animal, but your sketch is really cool!
I love silly Ashley. I want to just go roll roll roll for no reason too.
I am so glad you girls love your hoodies and that they seem to fit! You both make them look adorable!

When Grampa Dusty played the videos on the blog, and Gizmo hears “his girls” voices, he goes crazy! He’ll be happy he was invited to the party later! 🙂
