Easter Cake Pops

For our Easter in Hannibal I made some yellow chicks, white and pink bunny, and Easter basket cake pops!

Reagan ready for "Work"

After getting all dressed up Reagan informed me she was dressed to go to "work". She cracks me up!

Easter



We had a great Easter in Hannibal this year. The kids each got a great Disney beach towel that they brought with them to Disney World. We had an egg hunt at Grandma Creech's house and my cake pops were a huge hit!

The Playground is Where I Spent Most My Days


We have already gotten a lot of good use out of the new playground down the big hill on the school's grounds.

Baby Jonah Arrives Early

Robert Jonah Mais born Apr 8, 2011 at 1:41pm. He weighed 6lbs 9oz and was 19 3/4" long.

I got to ride up to Lee's Summit with the kids to see him (and the rest of my family). What a little cutie!

Tons of Trucks


We had a great time (again this year) at tons of trucks, sponsored by the parents as teachers and the city. Both kids had a great time even though we couldn't stay very long.

UltraMax MaxTrax Duathlon


After running last year's 10K I was inspired to try an all new kind of race, and I convinced Jamie Killion to do it with me! It was the first time I have ever raced on a bike. The short course for the race was 1.5 mile run, 7.5 mile bike, 1.5 mile run. I think the goal for next year will be to improve upon the short course and to NOT try the long course (1.5 run, 15 bike, 3 run...how crazy!).

My time for the overall race was 1:09:34, better than the 1:20 I was thinking. My splits were 13:12, 39:23, 15:57, and just 1:07 in transistions (there had to be some bright spot, right?). It was a fun time and a HARD race, but I am already looking forward to besting my times next year!


Kathleen's Baby Shower





We all treked up to Lee's Summit for Kathleen's baby shower. Alan and some of his besties made themselves scarce.

Baby Shower Cake Pops


I made some jungle themed cake pops for Kathleen's baby shower. I did lions, tigers and monkeys (oh, my! LOL) and I used both short and long sucker sticks. The all traveled safely in "the box" and only a few of them touched into the walls making small marks on them. The display I made was a diaper cake and it worked wonderfully!






More Tiger Gymnastics

Meeting Chef Duff



Thanks to another preschool parent I found out about Duff coming to Jesse Auditorium to be a guest judge for a cake contest and he also spoke about himself. It was a blast and Reagan and I went with Shannon for a great girls night out!


His dad went to MU so we actually talked to him on speaker phone during the evening!
