We have found a new favorite place! Coeur d'Alene, Idaho! Oh my word this place is beautiful! It is a 6 hour drive from our place to there.  We drive East along the Washington and Oregon border.  We then cross into Washington and drive NE until you head East into Coeur d'Alene.  It sits on the lake and is a great little resort town.  We took a long weekend and planned to see a few sites nearby, as well as visit the Silverwood Theme/Water park. This was a much needed break after ending school, baseball, wedding projects, etc.  We got to spend time at the pool.  We went hiking.  Brad got to play golf there-which is a once in a lifetime hit to the floating green.  The boat rides to the pool were great.  Silverwood theme park and water park was an all day adventure too! We explored downtown a bit with shops and restaurants. Enjoy these pictures! This will definitely be a place we do annually if possible.  We loved it! Brock eve...

One of my dear friends was getting married. We had been talking wedding items and I told her I could make her cake (after seeing a few pictures of what she was wanting).  I was a little nervous but excited at the same time to start this creation. I also volunteered to help put together a bridal/baby shower for her with her mom and sister's help. First, the shower...   And the start of the cake...  picking flowers...  finished product!  and her wedding day fun!   Everything turned out beautiful! I was super happy with the cake.  We made it to the reception safely (the drive was the WORST part).  It was such a fun day and I was happy to be a part of it! Congratulations to the happy couple!

Well, it is that time of year again, the school year is ending and we have lots going on! Parties, presents, upcoming weddings, summer festivities....whew! Brylee's last day of preschool for the year.  Presents to the teachers. A last day of school treat! Brayden's last day of second grade with Mrs. Slyter.  Brock's Kindergarten graduation.   So much happiness and sadness as we end the year, but I think we are all ready for summer break and the fun of no schedule!
