beautiful day!

Today was such a a lovely sunny day!  It took me until 11am to do the finishing touches on a wedding cake I was doing.  Then I took my new bike my wonderful hubby gave me for Christmas and went for a 15 mile bike ride on the Cherry Creek Trail.  It was perfect.  and after a nice warm bubble bath I took the cake to the reception.  I forgot how nerve wracking making wedding cakes can be!  The bride was thrilled, but I saw everything that wasn't perfect:(  ugh!  David and Hannah and I went out to dinner at Good Times, Yum! And then we ended our evening at the reception of this darling couple and daughter of one of my dearest friends!
a professional I'm not, but it's a fun hobby;)


And Dylan has "stars" in his eyes:)
sorry, no photos from my bike ride.  suffice it to say it was blue skies and sunny!;)

I did it!  My kitchen is done, well, I still have some door knobs to put on and some calking to do, but the major part is done and I'm thrilled with it!  Man it feels good when you do it yourself and also save a ton of money!!!!  I'm not a professional and many times impatient, and therefore the work isn't perfect, but I think I really like it:)  Pictures anyone? before...(bright white evreything, and cluttered) distressed cupboards (the kids had already distressed them over the years, I just added the antique look) bright white with antique cupboards clean counters! the original counter was white with specks of green and blue had to keep the temp at 72 degrees the whole time! the cat likes the temp. :) taped off and ready to go.  I hate prep work!  let's get to the fun stuff! my kitchen work station for the next little bit while it cures the primer coat up 'til midnight sponging on "the granite" too much...

last week I took a loooong walk by myself, which I very much needed.  It was lovely! driving into the sunset  more "walk" I don't think you can tell, but I was throwing leaves into the air:) and then winter hit this week, mid week.  3 days of no school, which was actually kind of nice;) so much snow for so early in the season! Maya got a play date in the snow with her friend Jordy Eden got to play in the snow with our friend and neighbor, Emma, and Maya raced them down.
