Today was a Good Day!

I must say that today was a good day! My hubby made some really good chicken,burgers, and hot dogs. I was responsible for the side which was ok, as long as I didn't have to tend to that hot grill. I also got to make a batch of Red Velvet Cupcakes. I found the recipe on this blog I follow. It was a twist on the original cupcake. The cream cheese icing mixture was bake inside the cupcake. They turned out really, really good! I don't know about you guys but I get excited when I find a new recipe and even more excited when it turns out to be a keeper!! Hopefully I'll get a chance to post the recipe later!


The weather was Wonderful today. It was cool and breezy. The kind of weather I like. The girls played outside all day. They yelled,screamed, and ran around everywhere. I loved it! It made me think about when I was their age. Which was that long ago!?( wink,wink)

We also invited my mom and my sister over for dinner. It was so nice to spend some time with them today. We joked, laughed and watched movies. I also got a chance to play around with my nieces too! Even though the two younger ones were busy playing with their cousins. Shay who is in Middle School now is taking Art. I love her...especially when she takes a interest in something that I LOVE to do ART! I got to sit down and draw with her today. I gave her a few tricks of the trade.

And finally, I finished up a piece that i have been working on for my cousin. Printed, framed and ready to go. I plan on giving it to her next week as a housewarming gift. I hope she likes it. I'll try to post pictures of it after the party. I dont want to spoil the surprise! And......I'm working on some BIG Art ....so...stay tuned !!!
