New Jersey!

On June 3rd, I left with two other instructors from the gym to go to Atlantic City, New Jersey.  We all were going to the AAAI convention to get certified in Cycling and Primary Group Fitness.  We left about 7am on the Thursday morning and arrived about 8pm.  We had class all day Friday, followed by a test and then more classes on Saturday and Sunday, with an exam on Sunday afternoon.  We drove all night and made it back home on Monday at 8am!  It was exhausting, but worth it.

This is Atlantic City.

On our way to the convention.

We made it and were so excited! (We didn't mean to match)!

On Friday night, we took some workshops.  We were able to do Insanity with Shaun T himself.  It was very intense, but fun!  Here's us afterwards.  I have no idea why I have that look on my face!  We were able to pose for pictures later on.  Shaun T is such a nice guy. 

This is Philadelphia from the freeway on our way home.

Double Birthday Weekend!

Addie's birthday is on June 4th and Luke's is on the 14th. I was out of town for Addie's birthday, so we had a double birthday party this year. Luke is obsessed with Spiderman. That's really putting is lightly. He only wants to wear spiderman clothes and loves everything about him. So we had to do a spiderman cake. I couldn't let poor Addie go without a cake of her own. Addie adores animals so I made her a kitty cake. This is my second attempt with fondant and I hope to get better. Luckily my kids are still small and don't notice how crappy their cakes really were!

Luke's Spiderman cake! Blowing out 4 candles!

Addie wasn't sure what to do. 2 candles for her. Addie's kitty cake.

It's always fun the get everyone together, especially for cake and ice cream!
