My Lil' Food Network Stars

I love cooking with my kids (at least most of the time- there are usually some moments in the middle where I am pulling my hair out and can't wait for them to be a bit bigger) But, overall I think the investment of developing a love for cooking in them now will be totally worth it in the years to come. And I love that they love watching the Food Network with me. ;)

Titus helps make pizza.

No, no, no eating the ingredients...at least not all of them.


My newest assistants at Sweet 2 the Soul. They are loving all the extra cupcakes and icing that have been hanging around our house. I think they might be ready for Cupcake Wars by next year.

Barry Apple Festival Parade

One of the area Jeremy services is Barry, Illinois. I had heard good things about their fall Apple Festival (especially the food). So when Jeremy was asked to be in the parade for work I knew it would make a fun family day. The kids loved being in another parade and proudly wore their Reliable shirts and passed out candy.

It was a very long parade route so Faith & Titus rode the entire time. On Monday a client asked Jeremy if we had twins!


After the parade we got to choose some treats to share as a family. Grace choose apples with carmel sauce. Faith choose a HUGE basket of fries, and Jeremy choose a turtle funnel cake. It was all very yummy.

C is for Clifford

Each week they focus on a different letter at preschool. Here Faith got to wear her Clifford PJs to school for Clifford Day during "C" week.
