Best chocolate cake EVER – thanks Pioneer Woman!

I finally decided to make this chocolate cake I kept seeing every time I would visit Pioneer Woman’s website!  She has awesome recipes and her blog is fun to read!  Here are the pics I took from start to finish.  It was fantabulous and everyone enjoyed it ~ I even shared some with the neighbors!!!  I totally baked this from scratch ~ batter and icing!!

Mommy moment..haha

Ok, so I needed to hem Curt’s pants for his band competition.  He put them on, I measured and pinned and then got out my handy sewing kit.  Well, I guess I was really tired ~~ and I had waited till the night before ~~ and I cut his pants in the wrong place!!!!  I had finished cutting off the extra material before I even knew what I had done!  I made him a nice new pair of knickers! (We are going to have these made into a nice pair of golf shorts ~ by a real seamstress!)

From pants to knickers!

From pants to knickers!

It was like 10 pm so I decided that I would just go out and buy him another pair the next day and take them too school before his competition!  Thank goodness the new pants fit really well!  Here is how he looked all nice and dressed up!

Isn't he handsome??!!

New Car for a New Year???? Nahhhh…but….

there is a new baby!  hehe j/k I was on the VW site making a Routan (for when I win the lottery and can afford a new car), and saw that you can make a Routan Baby for the Routan you build!  So, without further adieu — here is Baby Seth..if we had a Routan Boy!  LOL
