HAPPY BIRTHDAY Sweet heart



Mission impossible?

Im a simple baker. I bake cookies, simple cakes, pies.. but for Brianna's 5th birthday I got daring. A castle cake was my mission. Over all I'd say I did a good job for my first one. And I got the awesome job approval from my 5 year old herself and thats good enough for me :)

Beginning of a yummy season

With Brianna's birthday around thI have her snavking ocrrots corner I decided it was about time we made some yummy pumpkin chocolate chip cookies. Brianna helped and Preston supervised.

Supervising

the best part

oohhhh yeah 

I love how we make cookies and I have her snacking on carrots. :)

Fall leaves

Its took two days to do but we got it done. I came up with a decorative idea for inside the house that we could do on our own. So we and got some construction paper yarn and I got out my creative drawings skills haha. Leaves are in our window.

Decided to do the other two windows in the living room. Fall leaves all done.

WE'RE LOST

Today I decided that instead of our usual do something around the house or "window shopping" that's not fun for the kids, we'd go get lost in a corn maze. I forgot to take pictures at the findings (scavenger hunt in the maze) but it was hard pushing the stroller around to remember to.

As much as I was scared Brianna would start whining about walking around every where. She didn't and when I wanted to call it quits and find the exit she didn't want to. We did find all the items though which is what she wanted. And afterward I let both kids have some run around time. Brianna took to the slides and Preston took to the sand box. Brianna didn't get to go on the cow rides (pulled by a tractor big buckets made up to look like cows) but I promised we'd go again was daddy was there to help me.
