My Latest Creation!

While in Canada I made a shower gift/center piece for my cousin 
and his future wife.

My Towel Cake


Ingredients:
2 Wash Cloths (Top)
2 Hand Towels (Middle)
2 Bath Towels (Bottom)
Then use your support to hold it all together. 
You will need something tall and straight to go in the middle to support it.

Simply fold the hand towels and bath towels in to thirds 
and roll them together. Do the same with the wash cloths 
except only fold them in half. 
Then I used a pizza pan as the base.
Then decorate to fit the event!
ENJOY!

Summer Vacation Part III!

On Wednesday July 21 we went to the Cincinnati Zoo.  It was fun, but we went on YMCA day care day.....there were unattended kids everywhere!!!  Here are just a few of my favorite pictures:

















After the Zoo we headed to Louisville to have Dinner with Lee's Sister's Family:
Dede, Mike & Hannah
It was really great to see them and spend some time with them.
On the way home, I decide that I would go to Canada with my parents.  I got home at 12:30 am washed 2 really quick loads of clothes and we left my parents house at 3:30 am.  I had  a great time in Canada. I was able to see almost all my family.  And Sophie did really great in the car!

Summer Vacation Part II!

On Monday Jul 19 and Tuesday July 20 we went to Kings Island!  Lee and I are both roller-coaster junkies so we had an amazing time!!!

Waiting in line at the Crypt - 
I hated this ride, yet we rode it like 4 times....

Summer Vacation Part I!

For our Summer Vacation Lee and I headed up to Cincinnati, Ohio.  
Sunday July 18 - 
We went to a Reds Baseball game!  It was really hot and we lost, but it was still a great time!





For Dinner that night we went to Pappadeaux

They had 10 pound lobsters!!

My drink that I am sure was only vodka and a chunk of watermelon. 

Us Dressed Up for Dinner

Sounds Game!

On June 27th, Lee and I went to the Nashville Sounds Game.  The Sounds were playing the Texas Round Rock Express.  We actually got to see them finish up the game from the night before then play another game.  The Sounds lost one and won one.  Our seats were right on the 3rd base line.  We sat there for a little while, but since so many balls get hit down the 3rd base line and it was so hot in the sun, we moved to behind home plate and into the shade.
 















Its Been Over a Month!!

I can't believe that it has been over a month since I blogged!  We have been so busy lately!  I guess the only reason I am finally blogging is because I am home sick till Monday with Strep Throat. 
Since I last blogged:
*Went to a Sounds Game
* Lee and I have both had birthdays
*We took our Summer Vacation to Cincinnati 
*I went to Canada with my Parents (& 4 dogs)

Redneck Father's Day 2010

Sunday was Father's Day.  Dad, Mom and I loaded up the dogs and headed to the lake....Sounds easy right??  WRONG! While putting the 3 dogs in the truck, Izzie jumped back out and decided to go for a 25 minute run.  When she finally couldn't run anymore (after mom and I chased her around every yard on their street) she stopped and let me get her leash and load her in the truck.  

Once we get to the lake and start to put in, the boat comes off the trailer....thank goodness there were some people to help dad get us situated. 

While waiting for Dennis to come up from Cookeville to meet us, Baxter decides he needs to go to shore....and take a 25 minute run too....and of course Izzie had to join in on the fun....I'm so glad I have a good dog. =)
