Ty Sighting?

Dear Family,

Hey guys. I’m going to quickly hit something and that’s all that I really have time to do. I was told that some people were going to go to the Sunday morning session of General Conference. There weren’t enough tickets for me to go and I gave what would have been mine to Rob. So that opportunity was passed because Rob is still learning about the church and that it would be helpful for him if he went and got a bit more stuff. So, we heard a message in priesthood on Sunday which said that they stake still had tickets. I now have one. I’m set to go on Sunday morning so look for me on the screen when they pan around the conference area. I’ll be the one looking at the ceiling cameras waving.
 

That will have to conclude me for tonight. Julian took almost the whole hour so I’m salvaging what I can. Love you all

Ty

It is tradition in my office to make cakes for coworkers birthdays.  I love doing it because, they are never picky and never tell me what to make.  So I usually go overboard and try new fillings and new creative designs.  I've been known to work all through the night and into the morning.  But I love every second of my creative moments. This time, I decided to make a fresh strawberry filling in a yellow cake and another layer a dark chocolate, genache and cherry filled delight.  Mmmmmm.  To top it off, I decided to try making my own fondant.  It was really fun...until...Have you guys ever seen those cake shows on TV?  My transport experience was crazy like that!  Of course it was pouring rain....I did have to scootch my lopsided cake back up right... then things started to ooze....oh well. It was fun anyway and Jody loved the cake!

Since I had a lot of leftovers, the Rhett and Anika had a great time making up their own creations. I think it took them longer to decorate their 5 cupcakes than it did for me to decorate Jody's cake.  Makin' their mama proud!
