Long Time...

Wow…I have to say this is probably the longest I have gone without blogging. We have been so very busy and I just don’t have a lot of time anymore. I’ll try to catch you up on what we have been up doing.

Let me think…we finally got our house back up for sale. We relisted it on May 4th and have already had 2 different people come look at it. Hopefully someone will make us an offer soon!

I (Beth) got a new job! Yay! I applied on April 27th and the scheduled my interview on the 29th and while I was at the interview on May 1st he offered me the job! That was the easiest interview process ever. I am now the administrative assistant for a vice president. This is with the same company I was already working for. I will be full time with him on June 1st. I am super excited! This was a much needed change!

On Saturday we left our house at 3:30am to drive to Mobile for Carrie’s college graduation. I’m very glad we went, but it was such a long day. We got home a little before 2:00am on Sunday. Lori and Joel rode down with us and Adam joined for the trip back since he is done with school for the summer. We loaded down our car with stuff that Carrie needed us to bring back for her. She left for Greece on Monday and will be gone until next Friday. Then she will be working for a little over a month and then she is moving to NC to go to seminary.

Last Wednesday I started a new cake decorating course. This one is on fondant and gum paste and I think it is going to be really fun! Jeminah was not able to come to this one with me, but another friend from work and my neighbor joined. I am excited about class tonight. I’ll try to post a picture or two of my cake. Speaking of cakes, I made my first tiered cake for a bridal shower a couple weeks ago. It was just a 2 tiered cake, but still. I’ll try to post a picture of that too.

I forgot…I also had to go to Portland, ME for work…that was back at the beginning of April. I didn’t get to do anything fun…just had to go to meetings and training. Fortunately, it was only for 3 days.

That is about all I can think of for now. I will try to post again soon. I know I have tons of new pictures to post.

Course 1 - Complete!

Tonight was our final class in course 1. I had a lot of fun taking this class! I will be taking the next class in May, so that is exciting. This is my final cake for course 1. I finally know how to make roses! Yay!

Heather's 30th Birthday!

We took Heather to a murder mystery dinner show for her 30th birthday.

This is the only group picture we could take and we had to get a stranger to take it...he must not use camera very often.

Lori and I made Heather wear a tiara!

Cake Decorating Class

I am taking a cake decorating class with my friend, Jeminah. We are having a lot of fun! This is the first cake that I have made. We didn't really have much time for decorating our cakes last week, so it is pretty plain. I am hoping my next cake is a little better.

Super Bowl XLIII

Yay for the Steelers! Scott is a huge Steelers fan...he has been following them for years. So, we are very happy that they came home with a win last night! We had a little party at our house and watched the game. I got just a few decorations and made a cake...nothing too fancy. We had a nice evening and a great outcome!

Our Football Cake!

After the big win!
