Happy Valentines Day 2011
Lexi made cupcakes, Jenna decorated them.
I made my family homemade raviolis, fettuchini alfredo, salad and bread sticks and chocolate cake, chocolate mousse and raspberry parfaits.No point in going out to fight the crowds when we could have a quiet night inside by the fire in the fireplace.
Does he love me? Yep!! A dozen white roses and a beautiful card said so.I love him too.
The flowers may die but my photos and love will last.
Seniors Sweet Heart Ball
February 2011
Lexi was nominated for the royalty court for the winter formal Sweet Hearts Ball. As part of the spirit week for the girls there was a cake making contest. She made an amazing 7 layer cake for the auction. The bottom layer was all chocolate, the middle three layers was a white cake with raspberry filling and the top two layers was a lemon cake with lemon curd filling and a lemon frosting. The fondant on the outside was home made with marshmallows and powdered sugar. 
Our most wonderful and talented friend Corrin Doyle taught her how to decorate it.

Her cake really was the most beautiful and tasted amazing and I'm not just saying that as the proud mom. She made cupcakes for the judges and I may have eaten quite a few myself.

Curtis and Jenna and I were in the Nutcracker Ballet during the Christmas season of 2009. I can't even explain how much fun that was for me. It was a childhood dream come true. Of course in my dreams I was always the lead dancer, Claira, but to be on the stage with those talented dancers was pretty much amazing. Anytime I can bring a tear to my dad's eye is good enough for me.
