My Pretty Princesses

The girls LOVE to play dress-up so I decided to make them tutus.  They love them!  They twirl and spin, play and sleep all in their tutus.  Here’s some fun action shots!

 

Don’t ask where the posing came from.

Hy-Vee Cake Competition

On Tuesday Jordyn and I went to the Mall of the Bluffs to watch Sharon (my aunt) in the cake competition.  This was the first time I had been to something like this and it reminded of what you see on tv!  It was awesome to see so many talented women decorating.  They had 3 hours to complete a 3 tiered cake, 12 (maybe 18, I don’t remember) cupcakes into a cake, full sheet cake, 1/2 sheet cake, and 12 cookies.  I think that’s all it was!  Sharon did a Halloween theme and she did amazing, she even had steam around the set and coming out of the haunted house’s smoke stack.  She’s awesome!  Jordyn was a trooper throughout.  She did fall asleep during the last 45 minutes or so and kept calling Sharon Grandma, it was cute :)

New Years Day 2010!

My cousin, Laine Stahr was flying from Tennessee to Colorado in a US Army UH 60 Blackhawk on New Years Day and got to land it on his parents farm “Stahr Hill” in the bean field just down the road from my Dad’s house!   It was about 5 degrees out that day and windy but many people anxiously waited their arrival!  I took lots of pictures so be prepared! (surprise surprise!)

 

Waisting time :)
