Cake Pops anyone???








What sounded like a fun little easy treat to make for the kids teachers and friends turned out to be an ALL day sprinkle infested cake decorating day. We managed to ruin a couple pounds of chocolate trying to get the right consistency(don't add milk or butter) but eventually we came out with some cute ones that were teacher worthy. These are fun to make in small batches but I'm not sure I would do 3 batches again. This was pretty much the extent of my Valentines day creativity. We did enjoy a kids free night while Dusty's little sister put on a Valentines Day Party for all the cousins that they LOVED. She had a ton of games and crafts for them to make and she had them all for 5 hours. My husband gave me the best gift of service and started painting Emma's bed so she can finally move out of her crib. She will be 3 next month so we figured we should start thinking about that. The real motivation for this is that we hope by her having her own big girl bed she will sleep in her own room and not with us every night. I am not very optimistic in this working.
