Busy

I had such a great LONG weekend!

Friday-It was Wes' 30th birthday, so I cooked his favorite meal and we had a nice evening being together and watching movies. I got Wes some vintage Alabama t-shirts (a new style with the helmet stating 13 and not 12 ROLL TIDE), a Braves tumbler and lid, and an awesome freezer cup. Perfect tailgating essentials.

Saturday-FOOTBALL!!! Share lunch with Regina and Steve, then Aiden got to experience his first of MANY Alabama football games! ROLL TIDE! 1-0 so far! It was cute seeing his face ponder why daddy and mommy were cheering. Then I took the nap of all naps of like 3 hours. All those nights of being on-call with Priority 1 issues took their toll on me. No one likes getting woke up at 2am!

Sunday-Celebrated Wes, Steve, and Justin's birthday with friends and family. Yummy deer meat! I made the cake...that's a whole story in its own right.

Cake-So I baked it on Saturday afternoon so Sunday I could just frost it. So it was a really really simple cake for those Weight Watchers people out there. 1 box of white cake mix. 1 12oz sprite zero. 1 tub cool whip. 1 box of fat free vanilla pudding. Mix the cake and sprite together. Simple. So I decided to make it a fun cake....what else make it a rainbow cake! So I divided the mix in 6 bowls. Now comes out the food coloring (pink, purple, blue, green, yellow, then made orange).

Simple huh?! Well that was until I put in the oven....Hmmm what's that burning smell.....OMG! The cake is pouring over! Ahhhhhhhh! So I had to take the cake pans out. Clean up the mess and try it again. I think it was the fizz from the sprite. I'll just use deeper dishes. The eaten cake pictures don't do the layer justice. It was AWESOME! Then frosting time. Mix the cool whip and the pudding. EASY and SOOOO GOOD!

Monday-MY DAY OFF!!!!!!! Well Aiden apparently didn't know that and woke up at 6am.....Oh well. He was freakin cute and we both curled up on the floor after his bottle and went to sleep. I love him so much!

Next, I went with Regina and Chris to Hancock Fabrics....and what did I get....Houndstooth flannel fabric! YAH! I'm going to make a tie applique out of it and use red stitching for a white onesie perfect for game day. Also, a burpcloth, bib, and who knows what else. Maybe some pants since it's getting cold now. YAH for that!!!!! ROLL TIDE!

Then they had their Simplicity patterns on sale. YAH! So I found the perfect thing for Boo. A perfect christmas present for a perfect son! Now I have to decide which cute animal to make...........decisions!

I thought this next pattern was adorable. I loved the hood. However, I would need to make it "manly"...so I'll make one "cute" with like puppies or airplanes and the other one like a camo.
