Delicious Dinosaurs

This morning, I took Ben to his second class at Country Kitchen SweetArt. It was called Digging for Dinosaurs. He made a "Land of the Dinosaurs" cupcake, a chocolate dinosaur sucker, and crispy dinosaur bone (made from a rice krispie treat and melted chocolate). He had such a fun time making his treats! We even stopped over at Curt's work (because it's right around the corner) and Ben shared a treat with daddy.

We had such a fun time. We'll definitely have to go back for more classes!

Someone is very creative! What a fun time for you and Ben to share. I have to ask, What is the "lava" on the volcano? For some reason little boys love dinosaurs, so this was great.

The lava was made from melted chocolate and then Ben put some sprinkles on it. He actually loved eating that part more than the cupcake!

Enjoying December

I'm glad we had time to make sugar cookies together. Christmastime does not seem complete without them. I frosted the cookies while Ben and Curt decorated.  Lots of sprinkles and chocolate chips!  Ben loved getting slippers and a robe with his "Christmas Eve" jammies. He does love to be cozy. We decided to move up our present opening a day early because we thought I might end up in the hospital on Christmas. But, today is the 27th and still no baby. So we were a bit off on that one.  Santa brought the Lewis Hamilton car that Ben had asked him for. He was very excited!  The new pirate ship has been a favorite. He has played with it a TON a last few days.  Ben also got a few more pirate dress-up things. I've heard "Aarg!" a lot lately. :)  My parents came yesterday for a visit since my dad has this week off of work. We're hoping that I'll have the baby while they are here, but I'm not sure that is going to happen since they head home tomorrow. Ben ...

The Big 3-0!

Today I turned 30 years old. I didn't think that it would make me feel old, but it kinda does. :) I had a wonderful birthday. Curt went out and got us donuts for breakfast. Then, I got to open my presents. He did a great job shopping and I love everything he picked out! For lunch we went out to Olive Garden and then stopped by the mall for a little while. We spent the rest of the afternoon relaxing at home. I hope this getting older doesn't mean that gray hairs are going to start showing up! While I got ready this morning, Curt got out his old car track. He hasn't used it in many years, so he wasn't sure if it would work. Ben loved watching the cars race around the track. We enjoyed eating lunch at Olive Garden. Ben was too interested in coloring to look up at the camera. I love cheesecake for my birthday and Curt made this one for me all by himself. It is a chocolate chip recipe that is one of my favorites. He only added one candle per decade...we didn't ...
