Leap Day

Sorry I haven’t posted in awhile, it’s been a pretty non eventful week. We did finally book our flights to Germany today, so the trip is official…only 78 more days! I am looking forward to March, we get to see our nephew Liam again and we get to meet our Goddaughter Christianna!

Cake disaster

I had my first cake disaster tonight. I had two baby shower cakes due this weekend, I did one yesterday and one today. Today’s was for a shower my neighbor was hosting, and I was going to bring it to her tonight after I finished. I had it all ready and it looked great! I took my pictures and got it boxed ready to go. I picked the box up and take a few steps and what happens…I drop it of course! I freak out and open the box and the top tier has completely fallen off. I start crying and screaming and Aaron comes running in and saves the day! He calmed me down and went to work fixing the layers all by himself (while I am still crying) and getting me to the point where I can redo the detail work. I don’t know what I would have done with out him! I will edit this post with pictures and more details later this weekend.

Above the clouds

So what do you do when it’s cloudy outside and you have your instrument rating…go flying of course! Aaron went flying today with his Baylor student friend who has his instrument rating and wanted to do some real IFR flying (up above the clouds so you can’t see the ground) in the bad weather we had today. I didn’t go because I was working on a cake, but I will try and post the cell phone pic Aaron took..so beautiful!

Happy Valentine's Day

Happy Valentine’s Day to all our friends and family…we love all of you!

It's going around

Well, it’s going around and we caught it…we are both sick. Aaron had it last week and still has a bad cough, and now I have it. Poor us, I guess we will just take more medicine and hope we get well soon.

Jury duty

I had to go to jury duty today. I am done though, the case for the group I was in, about 35 people they were going to pick the jury from, the defendant never showed up this morning…so they said they issued an arrest warrant and told us we were free to go. So I was worried it was going to be a long day but it wasn’t bad at all!

Major League

I can not wait for baseball, spring training starts next week! So to get into the spirit we watched Major League tonight…one of my all time favorite movies! We also watched the DVD extras, there is an alternate ending that has the owner turn out to be good, wanting the Indians to win the whole time. Supposedly there was no offer from Miami to move the team, and she knew the players could be great, just needed a reason to bring it all together…interesting but I don’t think that works, I am glad they changed it. Wild Thing, you make my heart sing!

A perfect evening

We got to go flying around Waco today! One of Aaron’s students he recruited has his instrument rating and a plane here (how lucky is that) and asked Aaron to fly with him, and of course I got to go too!

Part XLII

We had a great time watching the super bowl at one of our good friend’s party tonight. I went in not caring at all who won (I only watch the commercials of course) but I was so excited the underdogs won! I thought it was a great game, one of the best in several years. Of course, the best part of tonight is that it’s almost time for baseball season..I can not wait…go Astros!
