Mother of Little Boys...

"Mothers of little boys work from son up till son down"...

How true that is...

But these boys are totally worth it.

I couldn't love anything more than these little guys.

They bring so much sun shine and joy into my life,

and I love being their Mommy.

Here they are all dressed up in their Easter getups today.

Pretty dang cute.

(please excuse the "rushing around getting ready for church' state of our house in the background!)

After a very cold, snowy, and rainy winter,

two little boys and their Mommy had a slight case of what you might call

Cabin Fever...

So,

We spent the last few days away at this little place...

It was a TON of fun.

The boys splashed and played and slid to their little hearts content.

They got tons of energy out.

We got to spend two nights away at a hotel.

We ordered dinner to our room both nights which equals...

no doing dishes by hand and no cooking for me! Yay!

It was a nice break,

and as always so fun to spend time together as a family.

Nothing says Spring like Chocolate and Flowers...

Here is the cake I made last night for our Relief Society Birthday Celebration.

My inspiration is found here.

I changed the recipe around a little bit,

but you better know I kept in the Mascarpone Mousse.

This cake had me at Marscarpone.

VERY rich.

But VERY YUM.

Don't worry, I don't have a cake stand.

This may or may not be a plate turned upside down.

Can't wait to have a house with storage,

where I can have 40 pretty cake stands if I want.

Here is my friend Brittany's cake.

She is Martha incarnate.

You bet I am going to get this recipe.

YUM.

The Birthday Bash...

On Saturday we had a Super Mario Bros. Birthday Party for Thatcher!

It was totally fun and I had a blast putting it all together.
