I do!

A few months ago my aunt asked me to make cookies for a bridal shower. I was very excited because I have only had the chance to make wedding cookies once before. The only hard part was that the colors the bride wanted were white with gold accents! You can't make sparkly gold incing!!! So I tried out a new technique of making an edible gold color that I could paint onto the cookies. I think they turned out pretty good for my first try!! (please excuse the pictures - old camera, at night, in my kitchen = poor quality)

Happy New Year!!!

2009 has gone and we are now on to a new year of 2010! I can't believe it is already 2010. I remember thinking that I could never imagine the 2000's and what it would be like. I guess I thought for some reason it would be completely different than the 90's just because we entered a new millennium. Well we are here and it's not so "crazy"! We had a great 2009 with many memories - our niece, Mia, was born; we each got another year closer to 30; we spent a lot of time with our families; had an amazing week long Thomas family vacation; pasted my CFP exam; experienced Vegas for the first time; I had an awesome get away with my girl friends; spent many hours with our great friends here; and ended the year with another memorable Christmas!!! What will 2010 bring??? I heard this the other day, so I decided this would be my motto for the year - Let's make 2010 all about Him!!!
