KC Cakes

I have recently gotten into cake decorating. All my friends kept telling me I should start a business. So I decided to give it a shot. Check out my KC Cakes blog at http://kccakestn.blogspot.com/. If you need a cake for something just give me a call or send me an e-mail.

Today's crazy girls

I know.... two days in a row of posts from me. I hope I don't send anyone into Cardiac Arrest or anything.

We noticed Callie was pooping tonight, (red face gave it away) so we asked if she wanted to sit on the potty. She nodded, so we put her on the potty for the first time. Nothing happened, but maybe she will start to get the idea.

Karisse loves for her and Callie to match. They have a couple of pairs of matching Jammies, so she insists on wearing them at the same time. They are darn cute!!

Crazy Hair

Our girls have some crazy hair. While we were camping last week Christy dryed Karisse's hair straight. Ever since she has been begging to have her hair straight like Cinderella and Barbie. So, after bath tonight Christy used the straightening iron in her hair. It is unbelievable how different she looks with straight hair and how long it is.

Callie has some pretty crazy hair too.

Long overdue update

I have been a real slacker about updating my blog. Since my last update our lives have changed a lot. We sold our van, so we are now DEBT FREE except our house and Christy is now a stay at home mommy. Although, they don't seem to stay home much. :-) Since she no longer works at the church we are looking for a new place to worship and we are worshiping with different members of our family. Christy and I, at least, are enjoying seeing what is out there. The girls love having Mommy at home!

Here are a few recent pictures of the most beautiful girls in the world.

Karisse's Birthday and Camping (Callie's first Camping Trip)

My big girl turned 3 on Memorial Day! We went camping for the long weekend and had her party at the campground. Grandma and Grandpa (Daddy's parents) camped with us for the weekend. A bunch of other family came up for the party.

I will try to add some videos later!

Camping wears me out!

Changes

After much turmoil, prayer and urging from the Lord, our family is making some pretty major changes. Monday night at the board meeting Christy officially resigned as Children's Minister at Avoca.
For months now she has been feeling an extreme urging to stay home with the girls. We never thought that it was an option for us financially. We recently finished going through Dave Ramsey's Financial Peace University and we are almost debt free. We have our van for sale and once it sells we will only owe on our house. Since we are basically debt free we can live on my salary. We will have to give up some of the luxuries we are used to, but we decided that it is worth it.
Please keep our family in your prayers during this time of transition and if you know anyone who wants to buy a nice 2006 Honda Odyssey please send them our way.
