Thanks Joyce for coming up with another batch of great questions!!
1. Share something you loved about your Christmas Day. I Love the fact that we go nowhere Christmas Day. This is something that started Guy was born. I remember as a kid opening presents and then being rushed off to visit this person and then that person all the while my new gifts were home waiting for me. So, when Dear Hubby and I had baby number one, we decided to stay put on Christmas Day. This is not to say that we do not celebrate with family. We do! We do! We just extend the celebration. Christmas Eve we spend with Dear Hubbies family (and there are a lot of them). Then the day after Christmas, my family comes. So, we really get three days of Christmas!!! It's wonderful.
2. You get to put five items in a time capsule to be opened in 100 years, what items would you choose and why? In goes......
- One of my family albums for people to see how we lived
- My Iphone because it has been something many can not live without.
- A real book made from paper!
- A pod from my Keurig machine
- Season of the Middle:)
3. What do you like on a cracker? I'm not fussy. I will usually dip my cracker into whatever dip is available. Lately, I have been on a humus kick though.
4. Do you make resolutions at the start of a new year? How'd that work out for you this past year? I don't really make resolutions because I have learned that I don't ever stick to them. So why set myself up to be disappointed in myself.
5. What's a song or song lyric you'll associate with 2011?
Sorry, but I'm never good at song lyrics so I will pass on this....
6. How will you ring in the new year?
With the family. Have some special food, treats, and a family game night. I don't think the little one will make it till midnight, but the others will. Then we will all be in bed by 12:15! We lead a very exciting life.
7. What is something you look forward to in 2012?
Disney!!!
8. Insert your own random thought here.
It is amazing how quickly the year really flies by, but we all know that. So what I will share with you (because you know I like to) is my two cakes that I made for Christmas. The Santa one was for Christmas Eve. The tree was for the day after Christmas with my family.
Live, Laugh, Love
and
Scrap it all!!
Your cakes are beautiful...is the tree cake or something else covered in frosting? Disney!! Your kids are the perfect age for it too. We haven't been in several years and we have tossed around the idea of going when Daughter2 graduates from uni...we'll see. I need to get on the planning of where ever we want to go.
ReplyDeleteHappy 2012!
Those cakes are absolutely gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteThe trees on the Santa cake are ice cream cones covered in royal icing. The tree on the other cake is actual cake. For the top, I again used an ice cream coke for the shape.
ReplyDeleteWow, you've got talent! Love the cakes.
