Cake and Update

Today we had a triple baby shower for 3 of my friends. I'm glad I got the chance to practice my cake skills on the superhero themed shower. This cake was frustrating but I learned a lot. My fondant didn't cooperate, I'm still not sure how to make that better next time. Also, I learned that I need to put supports in so that it doesn't lean. The shower was fun and the cake tasted good. That's all that matters right?

This week we played at the park with friends, went to the splash pad in Perkins, the Wondertorium, and  to a snow cone shack. Lots of fun. Lily and Levi are getting really good a playing together. They like to dramatize going to school together. Levi is so interested in going to school. He likes doing things "all by myself." Lily has been very kind lately. If she does get upset, she'll apologize and explain her feelings. She has such a kind tender heart and I love that about her. She has a way of talking sweet to Levi and calming him down. I just love my kiddos! I love happy weeks like this. Matt is ever so busy with school. So much stress!  I am going to throw the biggest party for him once he gets his thesis done! Everyone I know will be invited. 

 Last Saturday, July 13th, Matt and I were able to go on a date to Eskimo Joe's. Dan and KeLei were so sweet to babysit for us. It was so nice to get out together with out the kiddos. The food was not that great. We had heard that from just about everyone but we still had to experience it. We also went to Lowes to get a gas can for Matt's new chain saw and Walmart. Exciting.

 We have been so lucky. Sunday, Monday and Tuesday this week were pretty rainy and it was wonderful. It was such a great chance for the kids to use the umbrella. We visited Matt on Monday at school and they loved it! Makes me miss the Sultan, WA days. I LOVE rain!

This is from July 6th. Lily begged to fly her kite and was hardly interested once we got it flying. Levi was a kite flying pro :)
