I know that this post is going to be an over load of information, but I get so much crap for not posting very often so here it goes. First things first... I should give an update on my last post about Shayda, and Jordon. Shayda's surgery went so well... she was such a big girl, and did not even cry or get sick. It was like she just went to sleep, and then woke up happy (that doesn't happen very often haha). The tests were negative which is so good, but now I am not sure what to do about it. Jordon is now in Kuwait... We have talked to him every two to three days, and he seems like he is doing really well. Keep him in your prayers for me!
We went to the pumpkin patch at the red barn with my mom, and my sisters and sister in law. I put a pic of my mom and her screaming grandkids... so funny. I also added a pic of my little sis Shantel who is now in college leaving my parents empty nesters...sad! We have also been to the zoo with some good friends of ours, and stayed in Salt Lake at a really nice hotel... it was great. I don't have pics because I forgot my camera so I had to use a disposable.
I really have had so much going on, but now my mind is blanking so last but not least... I got Justice's pics done a couple of months ago at kiddie kandids because while we were at the mall getting new glasses for Clete, a girl at kiddie kandids asked me if I would let her take pics of my kids for free, and they would give me a free 5x7... so of course I said yes. My kids were not dressed the way I would have liked, but it worked out, and they turned out so cute! I was feeling pretty bad about not getting any pics of Shayda. Luckily, the very next day Shayda started her first day of preschool, and my friend Kelly Bennett took some beautiful pictures of her. I still can't believe how old she is getting. We are doing a mom's preschool, and it is going good. It is definately harder than I thought it would be but Shayda really is learning alot. To check out more pics of preschool go to kellybennettphotography.com. Anyways I am sure that there will be more to come in this crazy life of mine so keep checking. I will also be adding new cakes to my cake blog so check it out as well..

Lots of tears...

So I am sitting here sobbing because there are a couple of things that are happening this week, and I need lots of prayers... First of all my baby girl Shayda is getting surgery on Tuesday. She is getting an exploratory surgery of her bladder, and a couple of tests to make sure that she does not have diabetes. I actually had the same surgery when I was her age, and it is definately fine...but always scary when you get anesthesia non the less. Last but not least my baby brother Jordon is heading to Iraq on the 16th...(hence the patriotic background). I love love love my little brother! He is so dang cute, and we get along great, so you can see why I am having such a hard time. He is so strong, and has been full time Army for 18 months in New York (Fort Drum) and part time army since his 17th birthday. I love you both, and will pray for your health and safety...Love your guts! I have added some pics of Jordon, and Shayda so check them out. Also remember my new cake hobby and check out my cassasclipsnclaws blog.

Things that start with C...

This is Just one of the cakes that I have done most recently... It is for my friend Niccaels 21st birthday! Happy Birthday Niccael. Love your guts
Ok so apparently I am only interested in creative, fun things that start with C... haha! I have started to do cakes, and I have been incredibly busy for just starting out. I am loving making these cakes. I get to do new things each week, and it is so much fun. As everyone knows, real estate has been a little slow, so I needed to find new things to keep me busy, and this is what I have found. I know that everyone will get so sick of me reminding them of checking out my other blog, but I will be reminding you every time I blog so here it goes. Check out my blog cassasclipsnclaws.blogspot.com. I have done so much this summer, (hence me not blogging as often as I should) so I will add more blogs this week. I will, I promise!
