Going Away

This is my last post from Iowa!  The movers are here today loading all of our boxes.  Thankfully my parents are here to help.  I am exhausted, and ready for this move to be over.  Saturday night we will be in Colorado!



This week has been a great week of seeing friends, and saying Good-Bye.  I was able to have lunch a few days with some amazing women.  The other night I went out for a girls night, and I am not sure the last time I laughed so hard.  I will miss these people very much, but I know I will make new friends!  Plus, technology makes it so easy to stay in touch :)



My son had his party at school today.  I got to go for a little while, and it was so cute.  The class made a book for him about why they thought he was important.  Each kid drew a picture and wrote a sentence about how Tyler was important to them.  He got to sit at the front of the class, and each kid came up to read their page to him.  He was so excited to be the center of attention!  Of course he wanted to bring in special treats for his party, so I made these cupcakes.  He wanted them to have the "toys" that the store bought cupcakes had, but he was adamant that I make them (as if I didn't have enough to do).  In walks store bought cake mix!  I did make the frosting though.

I am not sure when I will have internet again, that is turning into a huge disaster.  I do have a few great guest posts lined up for you next week....so stay tuned!!
