Snow and Ice(ing)

Noahism of the Day
There is a tradition at the kids' elementary school to create Dicken's inspired snow villages. Rachel made a beautiful inn she called "The Out Inn" when she was in 5th grade:
While sitting at the table Noah lamented that he couldn't use this box design that he created on Sunday for his snow village:
Noah said, "I guess they wouldn't want a Fusion Reactor Core Generator at School."

Haley's 13th birthday
Rachel was invited to Haley's birthday party held at an awesome place in Senoia called Cutie Pies and Cakery;
The girls decorating their cake boxes. Each girl iced and decorated their own cakes:
Rachel loves to design with circles and the color blue:

These are photos from the day before Thanksgiving when the girls baked and decorated cupcakes:
Here is a mash up of two of my favorite pics of the cousins:
Off in a little bit to take photos of this year's snow village.

Spring has sprung and an opportunity to get together with aunts and cousins. Michael and I took the kids down to my dad and Alice's house for Easter. Saturday, the girls helped me bake and decorate a cake for my sister, Tracy's, birthday, the kids hunted eggs, and my dad grilled hamburgers and hotdogs on the Big Green Egg.Here are Rachel and Haley's toes after a spring inspired pedicure:
