Robert's Home!!!

Yippee!! We made a quick trip to Utah this past weekend to help move Robert back home. Once again we drove straight through, only this time we made a detour to California. (thought we would check out an new ambulance for the fire dept) Left Sunday morning and got to California on Monday. it took 27 hours 40 minutes to drive 1958 miles. Then we went to Utah, loaded Roberts truck and drove back. Got home on Wednesday morning. Some would think that would be a long time to have to spend in a car together but we are used to it. Dan likes to talk and I like to listen so it works out well. LOL. We did stop at some of the same rest stops as before and noticed some of our favorite ones had changed. Our favorite covered wagon has disappeared. Funny it was replaced with this one below and a new viewing camera.


Robert stopped to view the wildlife.


So now that Robert is home we can update our family portrait. Haven't had one since May 2008. It is really neat to see how our family has changed over the years. I think I will try to post all of our family portraits if I can get them scanned in. I have most hanging on my walls and it is really cool to compare them.

Cake Decorating Class


I know I have a fairly large collections of cake pans and have decorated cakes for years but I have never taken a class. I have learned second hand from my mother and through experimentation. So I am finally taking an official cake decorating class. This is something I have wanted to do for a long time. Joanne and my mom are taking it with me and we are having a lot of fun.

This is Joanne's practice board. They asked her if she had done this before because her techniques is so consistent and perfect. It looks awesome! Can't wait to see her cakes!

LOL
