Making cupcakes!!

While I was in Utah, my cute niece Ellie was there is one night we decided to make cupcakes together and Ellie was a great helper!!

YAY!! Cupcakes......


First you add the dry ingredients...


Then you crack the eggs (for some reason this really made Mommo nervous)
Then you mix everything together. ( Ellie really was very good at all of this, and she's just barely 2)
Then you taste it!!! ( I would like to point out that Elli has 3 different types of spoons. We each got one to take a taste...and somehow Ellie ended up with all of them.)

As we were tasting the batter I asked Ellie if she thought this was tasty. She told me that it was delicious! I couldn't believe she used that word, so I got my camera and tried to make her say it again. Then the inner thespian came out......




I know I'm a little bias, but this girl is soo adorable!! I love her enthusiasm!!

Christmas Decor

I know these posts are way overdue but I'm going to try and catch up as best I can.

So...we have a great little apartment and we have inherited or bought or been gifted some lovely items to decorate our house for Christmas, and I thought I would give you a glimps of what that looks like.

Here is our house before Christmas....

I love Christmas!!!
