May 2011 Wedding Anniversary

We spent the weekend at the Waldorf Astoria in Park City.
It was a beautiful relaxing hotel
I love Park City. Even though it was May it was a cold rainy weekend.
22 years we have been married now!!! Time flies when you're having fun is how the saying goes. That means I have been having a wonderful time because it seems like just a few years ago that we started our life together.

Jenna and Katelyn love to perform in the Winter Fireside each February. Here is the beginning of one of Katelyn's dances. She is second from the right.

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.
The cake looked and tasted amazing. Out of 15 cakes Lexi's placed 3rd and sold for $65
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.
