Daddy was gone all last week for training in Mississippi so when he got home on Friday we decided to have a cake waiting for him! Jack and Hailey helped me mix it up and then had a wonderful time cleaning off the beaters. I don't think I even had to put them in the dishwasher they got so clean :-)
I wonder if I can fit this whole thing in my mouth?!?
Pedro was just wishin' that one of them would drop something....anything! But he was a good boy and stayed out of the kitchen.
This was our finished masterpiece! Too bad I forgot to take any pictures of when Darren got home and we all ate it :-) It was very yummy and we were all very happy that he was home. Especially Hailey...she'd been waiting all week to play her Princess Wii game and he had taken the Wii with him so she just could not wait for him to plug that thing back in :-)
Here are some pictures from Darren's trip....He didn't take them...They were given to him on a cd from the school.
He's the one in the green/white hat
a lot of these guys are from undercover drug units that's why their hair is long or they have lots of facial hair... They came from all different parts of the U.S.
I guess after class they got to go outside for recess ;-)
I couldn't find Darren in these pictures, but I thought they were too cute not to post! (I know..they're not trying to be cute but it still looks cute!)
Back in Warner Robins!
Tonight was our church's Ladies Salad Supper. We try to have on every month. I was making a chocolate chip cheese ball and Hailey wanted to help me so I grabbed our matching apron's that my Secret Pal gave me!! Aren't they adorable?!? She loves hers!! She helped me mix everything together
then Jack starts yelling " I want an apron too!!" So I gave him an apple one that hangs in my kitchen! He helped Daddy with the mac-n-cheese!

I love seeing your babes in the kitchen with you! They get so excited to help in there, I love it. I think Jack needs a lightening McQueen apron.
I laughed seeing the recess picture from Darren's class.
The beaters are the best part! What exactly goes into a chocolate chip cheese ball?
I think that it is very creative on your part to decide to make a cake just because....what a great idea! Who needs a reason to make one? It looked like so much fun.
I am glad that it is just mostly coupon clipping moms that read your blog because WE probably won't ever run into those undercover cops whose cover was just blown by a cake baking, cheeseball making, mini van driving, stay at home mom!!
I bet Darren loved coming home to a delicious chocolate cake! Yum-O! I bet he learned a lot and I know you are very proud of him. :D
Yeah...I haven't asked Darren yet if I was really allowed to post those pictures :-) If they magically dissapear we'll know why!
Oh!! what heart memories were made!!
You're such a good mom. When my kids want to help me in the kitchen, I can't deal with it. I tell them to go play. They make me nervous. You have such great patience!!!
You are such a good mommy and wife! You're right those recess pictures are cute, there's just no other way to describe them. :)
Hailey expressed her excitement at her daddy coming home at school too. I thought oh, how sweet, she misses her daddy. Then she says, finally! I can play my princess game! What a hoot!
That was so sweet for you to make a cake for Darren's homecoming. Riley thinks your cake looks great. He keeps asking to look at it.
