About a day....
Well, today has been different. We went to visit some friends today to see how they were doing and get together. We've known them since before I was born. So we went over there to visit. Well, spur of the moment, we decided to go ice skating.
Okay, well, I've wanted to go ice skating my entire life. I have never had a chance before. Actually, Last Friday we were going to go with our church. I had been looking forward to it for the entire month of January. But we found out that they had changed their times, so that didn't end up working out. So today, when it was suggested, I was very excited.
So we went ice skating.
My brother came and well, these "old friends" are pretty much family. So I had two brothers telling me how to skate, not to mention the "chicken" and "slowpoke" stuff inbetween. =P
While I was skating, since it was my first time, I was having a pretty hard time with my balance. As I watched other people skating so well, and even the couple of old friends skating together. I thought perhaps that's what it's like trusting God and following Him. I couldn't imagine holding on to someone while I was skating. I would have felt even more unstable. So I felt like doing it alone was better. But at the same time, without God, we're all over the ice. Just a thought.

So...
Guess what I did today?
Doesn't it look beautiful? I LOVE cleaning tack. It's so much fun.
And the end result is so satisfying!

First ever cake(and yes, I am a perfectionist)
I know, I'm crazy. I'm making my Mother's birthday cake for tomorrow. I will post pics. I'm actually having someone over to help me decorate it tomorrow. But I finished making it tonight. I am hoping to have it perfect. But one of the cakes is fallen in. =( Maybe it will look good with the decorations. =) I hope so, because I want Mom's birthday to be special and the cake to be perfect! It's a bonnie butter cake and I think I'm going to decorate it with real roses, roses made with icing, fondant, and buttercream icing. I hope Mom will like it. Dad and I have planned some special surprises for her. =D
