For Christmas I got this cakepop cookbook!
I was excited to try to improve my technique and try new designs, and this weekend I decided to make my first batch! :)

Friends of ours just had a baby and we are taking them supper, so I made these for their dessert for fun!


I couldn't resist showing you this little cutie snow face!


And I'll leave you with our current family photo :)

cuteness.

we've been getting lots of little snuggles from this guy...
(hence his name -- it definitely fits him very well) :)



we woke up this morning and it was -14 degrees outside! YUCK!
looking forward to spring... or just a temp. above 0 would be a good start :)

New Year, New House, New Family Member :)

(And no, we aren't pregnant) -- We got an ADORABLE puppy!! :)

Meet Snuggles:



He's the cutest thing. EVER.

The only trouble with getting snuggles is that our apartment does not allow dogs for ANY reason. Period. So we talked about it, prayed about it, decided to get snuggles anyway - and move. :) (Yes, we know we are crazy!) We are now renting an adorable house that's only a minutes drive from Ben's school and a blessing!!

I'll have to take some more pictures of the house and put them up here soon.

All that to say we sure started our new year with a bang :)

Hope you all had a less adventuresome start to your new year! Happy 2011 from Iowa!
