Picture Catch up and Happy News!

So Tuesdays post was missing pictures! Blogger just today let me upload them! And it won't let me upload them to the post so I said forget! I'll just make a new post! :)

Here is Audree's cake from her 2nd birthday party! :) It was a really cute pink/green and Monkey theme!

 Here is the sweet girl opening her presents and like I said she thanked everyone by name! TOO CUTE!

 Here is the golf ball cake I made for a co-worker! Her husband ended up lovin' the cake! I get the most joy out of making my cakes for the people reactions and memories made surrounding the occasion that I make the cakes for! I need to come up with a little name for my "business". I had to make my first invoice the other day and I didn't have an official name! ha! If you have suggestions let me know! :)

The rest of our week has just been wonderful!
Babies born!
 Cino De Mayo fun!
 And so much more!

Tuesday we got a chance to visit with M, our friend who just lost her mother. It was such a nice visit! M is doing so well for such a tragic loss. She is truly depending on God to help her with this whole process! It was so refreshing to sit down and talk with her. God really is just so amazing! I'm so glad I serve such a loving God!

The Mr. made them a super yummy dinner and made this beautiful rose arrangement! The roses are from our yard!

 (Yes, I know I still need to take pics so yall can see his work! It's amazing!)

 Here is another shot of the arrangement!
 I have such a talented husband!

So the same evening that we were going to visit M, our other friends in our small group W and C had their FIRST baby!

Meals, love, cakes and more!

The Hammarlunds have had a wonderful week so far!

Our weekend was filled with birthday parties, Twilight, yard work and cake making!

The Mr. has made our yard just BEAUTIFUL! I need to take pictures so you can see! I'll actually use my "real" camera! ha!

I attended a very good friend of mines daughters 2nd birthday! She is a very smart little girl and thanked everyone by name while opening presents! It was fun to celebrate! I remember holding that sweet girl the day she was born!

I made a cake this weekend for a co-workers husband! He's big into golf, so she asked me to make a golf ball cake! It was super fun to make! Especially with my new baking tools!

We've made two yummy meals for sweet friends this week! I got to see K and her sweet baby boy Landon! He's just so tiny and so handsome! We are going to see our sweet friends C and M tonight, M is my friend I had yall pray for. Please keep praying.

I've tried for two days to upload pictures but it isn't working...I'll try again later!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY LUCY ELIZABETH!

Our sweet baby girl, Lucy Elizabeth, is 5 years old today!

WOW!

Such a big girl! I'm so lucky to have been here Mommy for almost 4 years!

We love having such a smart girl as our oldest! She is great example for baby Ethel!

She loves to swim, chase, give kisses, snuggle(or smooch), look out windows, and play with her baby sister!

We love you Lucy!

Book Buddies!

At school my class and a Kindergarten class are BOOK BUDDIES!

Every Friday we head down to the Kindergarten hall with books in hand to read!

All the kids have a buddy and each child reads...the 5th grader and the Kindergartner!

Well yesterday was no different we headed down the hall for a fun time of reading together!

So wonderful to work with great co-workers that want to do wonderful things like
 BOOK BUDDIES!

Yummy!

The Mr. picked me up from work yesterday and I was hungry! He asked me where I wanted to eat and I didn't really know...but we drove by a couple of places and I couldn't decided what I wanted.
He then suggested this:

Of course I said yes! YUMMY!
(I know, not healthy at all but o so good!)

Nope, wasn't done there...DQ is next door...

Yup, they have MINI blizzards! HOW PERFECT! It was already bad enough what I had eaten for dinner but the LITTLE blizzard wouldn't hurt!

Then we headed home to walk our doggies and spend the evening together!

I walked in and this is what I found:

A bunch of new baking goodies!!! I was so excited!

Thanks Mr.!

Like everyone else, I watched the ROYAL WEDDING! It was just wonderful! The Mr. even got up with me to watch the fun! And he prepared something very appropriate!

Tea anyone? :)

It was a great end of the week! Lookin' forward to the weekend!

HAPPY WEEKEND!

Prayers, Storms, and Praises

Good morning,

My heart is so heavy this morning. I've been praying since 1:45am. For lots of things...one the horrible storms and two we've had a loss.
M from our small group's mother took her life on Tuesday. You never can be so sure that everything is perfect for people. Please join me in praying for M and her family.
 My heart hurts for M.

So, the Southeast was hit with some BAD storms. The death tolls are too high for me to think about for tornadoes. I went to bed last night like any other night but my sweet husband stayed up and kept watch of the news and weather. And text and called others that he was worried about. When he came up at 2am, I woke up and asked if everything was okay and he told me that yes most of everything had passed.
PRAISE the LORD!
When I came down this morning to get ready this is what I saw:

He had it all set up for us just in case! :)

My praise is that my sweet friend K who had her baby earlier this month, well today was her DUE DATE! But clearly that sweet little boy came early! :)

********UPDATE**********

My other great friend at work A found out yesterday that she is having a BOY! Such exciting news! Lots of babies at our school and most of them are BOYS!

I hope you and your family are safe and well this morning!

My prayer today is for the families who are hurt, without homes, or have lost loved ones.
