Really....two months???

I just reallized it's been nearly two months since the last blog! Crazy!!

Things are good in the Thorndike household. We made it through our birthday months and the holidays....December and January are brutal for us with 3 of the four kiddos birthdays and the holidays. We also had a visit from John's family over the new year which was a lot of fun. I've been in school as well so there is no shortage of things to do around here.

As always, I made at least two of the kids birthday cakes and Alison had a turn at getting a store bought one(thank you Nana and Papa). Most of the time they come up with some great ideas for their cakes and so it's up to me to try to make them happen! Alison wanted a Strawberry Shortcake theme so that's what she chose. Jeremiah is really into his newest movie How to Train Your Dragon, so I made him a fire-breathing dragon cake....it turned out pretty good! Judah has a few favorites right now, but he is really loving Mickey Mouse, so I made his as well and it was a lot easier than I thought it was going to be.
We are so blessed to have such great kids!
