Last week we had Hali and Ryker over for a play date. I thought, "I am going to do something fun with these kids. I think we'll make cupcakes." I told this kids and they were all excited and they came in the kitchen and lined up to help when I realized I only have one egg... so I called my neighbor and borrowed two. Then we get them mixed and ready to pour into the paper rings... Oh I only have twelve, so we used some spray for the other pan. I had a good idea and let the kids choose what color of cupcakes they wanted to make. Hali wanted blue, Malarie wanted pink, Ryker wanted yellow, and Mason got green (poor boy slept through the fun). I put a drop of food coloring in each cup and gave them each a toothpick to stir in a cool design. After baking them I got ready to make the frosting and...I am out of powdered sugar! At this point I was just like bring it on! I waited for Trav to get done with school and bribed him into running to the store to buy some for us before BBall started-Thanks Trav such a good hubbies! Then I made the frosting and aging we made four colors. Then the kids frosted the cupcakes and got to put on as many sprinkles that would stick to their cupcakes. It was a fun day and the kids loved being involved. I recommend trying it but before you do make sure you have everything for it :)

Cristan, I was SO EXCITED when you told me you have a blog!! Now I can peek in on your adorable kids whenever I want! (And Lillie will love that!) She seriously talks about Mal all the time, it's really cute. I can't beleive how big Mason looks to me! He grew up overnight! And that little Madi, oh my goodness...precious. It was neat being able to read her birth story, I had no idea all of that happened, with her bp dropping and all that. How amazing that they felt they needed to do a c-section!!! I can't even imagine the emotional stress of it all, but what a blessing!! I love you guys, and it was so good to hear from you! I'm so glad we can keep in touch better, love you girl.
Oh my heck, what an awesome mom you are. I was crackin up at your story, you are too funny (BTW, what did you have to bribe Travis with, eh?? :) nevermind, I don't need to know!) I'll have to do that sometime when I'm not such an OCD freak about kids in the kitchen.
I am so glad that you are now in the blogging world. Malarie and Mason look SOOOOOO big. I hardley recognized Mason. Madelyn is absolutely adorable and so was her blessing dress. We miss you guys but this will be a good way to keep in touch and see each others kids.
