Wedding Cake

This post is mainly for my mom!  This is the wedding cake that I just made for a friend.  A few hours and a couple of panic attacks later here is the end result.

The Water Park

Here are the pics from the local free water park.  Robb has every other Friday off so we thought we would give it a try.  I look like a dork in the pics, but the kids are cute(if I do say so myself). 

 

After the pain. . . kind of funny!

So i don't have any cute picture or video to go with this entry, but thought this was funny!  So awhile ago I tripped over a baby gate.  Surprise, surprise . . . i know that A. i tripped and B. we have a baby gate in our house . . . but this time I hurt myself.  I landed on my wrist and had immediate bruising.  But I just figured I had sprained something.  Well awhile (like two months later) I was still having pain and a bump where there shouldn't be a bump that never went away.  But a couple of days ago, being the graceful person that I am (hence the name Grace that my aunt calls me often, as well as many other nicknames that I won't reveal on this blog) I fell down the stairs and landed on the same wrist.  I immediately heard a POP!  After a couple brief moments of pain, it was all gone!!  The pain and the bump!  HOORAY!!!  Who needs a doctor when you can fix it on your own?  J/K!  I know I should have seen a doctor sooner, but now I don't have to! 

Number 2! Only 11 more to go!

For those of you that read this post before the video appeared, sorry!  Hopefully the title of the post makes sense now!

Our Field Trip

We just went on a field trip to KNDU, the NBC news station serving the Tri-Cities and Yakima!  It was really fun to meet all the people that I watch at 5 am when I am up feeding Carson.  The girls got to sit up at the news desk and got to a weather forecast on the green screen.

Future newscasters!
This is the girls doing the weather on the green screen!  Sorry it's so dark!
This is the morning weather man showing us how to use the green screen and talking about the weather
This is the news room!
Something new that I learned . . . I am always curious what the UV index really means.  Since moving here everyone on the news makes a big deal about the UV index.  Well lately the UV index here is an 8 which means in 20 mins if you have fair skin you will be sun burned.  In July and August, in this area, he said it is usually a 10 or 11 which is the highest . . .  which means in 5 mins. you will be burned.  Crazy!!!  

Our latest project!

So we finally finished our front yard. . . well for now!  

This is what it was like before, just rocks and weeds.

This is midway!  We pulled out all the rocks and weeds and put in bushes and a tree!
This is the end result!  Sorry they are dark it was sunset when we finally finished!  A couple minor injuries and a couple of sunburns later and we finished!
