Car seat Safety...

Many people I know if they know me for very long will hear me say something about car seat safety...I have posted one video below but there are a bunch on UTUBE...

I was in a serious car wreck in November of last year along with my 3 kids...no one was injured, but ALL of my children were properly restrained and their car seats properly installed...

I can't tell you how many times I see photos or videos of kids sitting in their car seats with their upper buckle down to their belly button or see a tiny child forward facing or see a car in motion and the car seat is rocking back and forth... SCARY... In our car wreck we rolled! Had my children not been properly restrained I shudder to think what could have happened...I am sure one or more of them would have flew out of their seats and hit a window or worse been ejected!

PLEASE for the love of your child(ren) watch a couple videos and just make ABSOLUTELY sure that EVERY time ANYONE puts your child in a car that they are in the proper car seat and properly restrained...

I don't care WHO makes fun of me or what they say about me being "anal" ....our children our precious ....let's protect them and it really takes no time at all to make sure they are safe!

Sorry I forgot to take these pics until they were already covered in plastic in the back of my Expedition...haha




Monstor Truck Cake

Today was our church's annual Master Club Carnival and the popular event is the cake walk...there must have been over 100 cakes there!

I made 6... and by popular demand I made the monstor truck cake again...
Literally just a crumbly mess of cake, graham crackers, frosting and small chocolate donuts and of course a mud pit and monster truck!

Next up...the Sunflower made with a round cake and twinkies.


Then there is the Hot Air Balloon...a round cake decorated with gum drops and a graham cracker basket....

Flower Cake...
The petals are made with marsh-mellows and whopper centers...it was supposed to be a really cute purse but it kept falling over...oh well. Soleil liked it so much she did the cake walk and got it back...yummy!


Just for fun an m&m cake


Last the leftover cake... everything that was left from frosting to candy got put on this cake...

And here is poor Kale...begging me to PLEASE let him have some of these cakes he has been looking at for 24 hours! (Don't worry he had some for dinner tonight =)
