Well I hope everyone had a fun and safe 4th of July weekend. Ours is coming to a close, so I thought I'd share some of the highlights and let ya'll know what we've been up to!We spent the 4th down in Vancouver with these crazy kids:
Meet Sam's little sister Jodi and her husband Jason!
Spending time with them is a guaranteed good time. There was lots of yummy food to be eaten (BBQ... what else do you eat on the 4th??), games to be played ("Take 2 Scrabble"... gotta love playing Scrabble with Grandma Neal! Scrabble quote from Grandma that I'll never forget: "Does whore have an 'H' in it??"), and pretty fireworks to be watched. Sam's parents were there too, so it w
as lots of fun.Also, I got to make a "Flag Cake" that I've been wanting to try ever since I saw the recipe in a magazine. I'm sure lots of you have seen variations of it... this one has Jell-O, pound cake, strawberries, cream cheese, and whipped cream in it! It's pretty dang good. It was fun to make, and of course I had to snap a couple pics!
Happy Birthday USA!
Yummy cake! I could sure go for a piece of that right now.
ReplyDeleteI love, love, love the scrabble quote! I laughed so hard!!
The cake looked great but next time you make it you need to make sure there are a total 50 stars and 13 stripes - come on, Ame, if you're going to bake, get it right! No, really, it looked impressive!
