These marshmallow treat are so easy and taste yummy. We used: Large Marshmallows, wooden skewers, sprinkles and Chocolate Magic Shell. Put 3 marshmallows on each skewer. Freeze for an hour on a cookie sheet. Drizzle on magic shell and sprinkles. Allow for shell to hardened. Now eat. and enjoy.

Here is another yummy treat. Can you tell I was in a dessert mood this weekend? For this we used: Fresh Strawberries, canned pineapple, wooden skewer, and Magic Shell chocolate topping. Place a strawberry in the center of the pineapple ring. Insert the skewer through the middle of the pineapple ring and strawberry. Place on cookie sheet and freeze for 2 hours. Pour Magic Shell on the rings and allow to harden. Yummy!!!!!

My kids had so much fun making these and even more fun eating them. We used: Instant Vanilla Pudding Lg box (and milk), Frozen Whipped Topping, Frozen Fruit (Raspberries, blueberries and strawberries), plastic cups and Popsicle sticks and aluminium foil. Prepare pudding by following the directions on the box. Add a cup of whipped topping. Add frozen fruit. (I did not measure, so add as much as you like) Stir. Spoon in some frozen fruit in the bottom of the cup. Fill the rest of the cup with pudding mixture. Insert Popsicle stick. Caity covered them with aluminium foil. Freeze for 8 hours or over night. Cut off cups and enjoy.

I hope everyone had a great week. I can not wait to see what project you have been up to this week.

Here is a fun and easy craft to do. We had fun making skeletons with cotton swabs. We used: Cotton swabs (8 per skeleton), construction paper, scissors, glue and a picture of a face. Glue on the face. Glue on 3 Cotton swabs for ribs, 1 for the spine and 1 for each of the legs and 1 for each arm.

Today we got to watch Daddy do a surgery and then we had some fun being silly. It was a bladder stone surgery. One Minature Schnauzer had all of these in her bladder. Ouch!!

One of our favorite Birthday traditions is to decorate the kid's bedroom with balloons and streamers while they are sleeping. My kids always love waking up to a decorated room on their special day. Happy Birthday Caity !!!!! This weekend we had a Luau Birthday party sleepover. We had Caity's favorite ice cream sundae birthday cake. Yummy !!!! Here is the recipe . We painted these wood pieces. There was also a water balloon fight. I filled 100 ballons. And they loved every minute of it. Had a pinata. And a lot of great kids in my house.

Cheyanne and I made this cute whale craft today. We used: A small plastic flower pot (I think a terracotta pot would work better), blue paint, white chenille stems, large wiggly eyes, glue, blue construction paper, and blue beads. Paint the pot blue. Allow to dry. Cut out fins and tail. Add one bead to each chenille stem. Poke a hole in the pot and put in chenille stems. Glue on fins, tail and eyes. Cheyanne said it needed a mouth.
