Jupiter Jubilee
9:42 PM Edit This 0 Comments »SerVlad and I went to the Jupiter Jubilee today. We parked at the high school and took the trolley to the Jubilee and back. While at the Jubilee, Sergio went in a few bounce houses, one was a regular bounce house, one was a tall one that he climbed up and slid down (of course he had to slide head first!), and one was a long obstacle-style course. Busch Wildlife was there with an exhibit and SerVlad and I pet a baby alligator and an opossum. That was nothing new for SerVlad as he goes to Busch Wildlife so often that he could be a tour guide! SerVlad had a balloon made into an airplane for him.
We got to go inside a huge fire rescue truck and SerVlad asked the fireman a most relevant question: Where are the Police DOGS????? Too funny!!! He got a coloring page to bring home. Unfortunately the new memory card I bought on the way there didn't work because of the pixels of my camera (older) so I exchanged it on the way home. Enjoy!
Christmas Cookies 2009: Choo Choo Train Edition
9:17 PM Edit This 0 Comments »First of all there was no sugar cookie mix to be found at the grocery store so I assumed I could by that refridgerated dough that comes in a tube. First mistake. I rolled out balls of it and cut it into shapes with train cookie cutter pieces. In the oven, they expanded into big blobs. No problem, when I took them out, I simply cut the cookie cutter shape into the middle of the blob...until they started to quickly harden... then it became a bit harder. But we ended up with a small batch and Sergio thought it was really, rally cool to decorate them as is!
