Ok, so I am a little behind with my posting. The holidays were crazy and I didn't have time to put updates on here from all the events. I will start with the New Year's Eve cake balls I made. I decided to do strawberry cake with strawberry icing. Then I dipped it in this confetti looking Candy Melts that I found. Then used black gel writing to put '2012' on with. You can find the recipe here.
We went over to our friends house to hang out with the usual cast of characters. We of course had matching outfits for the kids and had to take a picture of the 4 babies in their outfits. Born in 2011 is what the onesies say, it's a little hard to tell!
2011 was quite the year for our family. Here is a brief recap of some of the significant events this year:
- We welcomed our first kid into this world on March 5th who has turned out to be the sweetest little boy ever!
- Took a cross country voyage to Arizona with Trey when he was 3 months old to visit family, see my little sister graduate high school, and have Trey baptized.
- My Mom moved to Arkansas to be Trey's babysitter during the day! Leaving the town and house I was sure she would end up in forever.
- Trey had his first plane ride at 6 months old to see Roy's littlest brother get married!
- We met up with Tata and Nana in Pittsburgh to celebrate Roy's Dad turning 50 and watch his beloved Steelers beat the Seahawks!
- Roy and I both turned 30, ugh!
- Mom found out she had colon cancer 2 days before Christmas, had surgery on Christmas Eve, was sent home a few days later with a clean bill of health!
- My Dad drove out to Arkansas to stay with us and take care of Trey during the day while my Mom recovers. I think he was just looking for an excuses for some quality Grandpa/Trey time ;)
- We rung in the New Year with some of the best of friends anyone could ask for!
Here's to having a GREAT 2012! And wishing you all the same!
