A Few Birthday Pictures

Posted in Family, Holidays, and Thoughts

My birthday cake with 4 very large cupcakes. As I said above, these were very large cupcakes. The top and bottom are baked seperately. We took the cupcakes on our weekend camping trip. Not sure what D is using to light the candles? Take a look below. Uh, yep, that’s a propane torch. What? Isn’t that what you light your candles with? My new slow cooker. (My other one died.) It has 3 different size crocks to go with it. Yes, it was in use when I took this picture. My birthday gift from D and Munchkin. I’m really hard…

Wonderful Weekend

Posted in Family, and Thoughts

We had a wonderful weekend camping. We rolled into our beach front campsite late on Friday night. We were exhausted and happy to head to bed. We woke up to an absolutely beautiful view.

Exploring God’s Creation

We were pleasantly surprised when D was able to make it home a day earlier than expected. His early arrival home allowed us to be able to go do some exploring at the Cleveland National Forest.
