stars and stripes

Doesn't everything taste better on a stick?!?  These are some snacks I made for a party tomorrow.  I cut out watermelon stars and placed them on a bed of blueberries and also made some rice krispy treats that I decorated with red frosting and sprinkles.  I put both on some white lollipop sticks and added some patriotic ribbon to the watermelon ones. Both were easy to make and delicious for kids of all ages.  Hope you all have a wonderful long weekend filled with sweet treats.

celebrating the chaos

Last week felt like the longest in history.  In addition to our regular chaos we had people working on our roof, my husband trained and ran in his first 10k, I met with a committee to find a new principal for my daughter's school and both of my parents made separate trips to the hospital.  Luckily they are both home and doing fine.  Our roof is finished and the dumpster was taken away this morning and my husband not only completed the race, but it was his best time.  In addition to all of this we spent Monday marching in a parade and went to a friends house for a party.  I am busy getting ready for my son's fourth birthday party on Sunday and so That's a Wrap will have to wait until next week.
