I'm baaaaack!

Whew. Cold. Quick. Fun. Fabulous.

That about describes the past week. I have really missed you all and am just starting to get caught up on your blogs.

I will get to all..... 'cos I don't want to miss anything!

So, here are a few photos to get me back in the swing of things.  (gone for a week and I have to be re-trained.  You should have seen me at work today!)

This cake is Ella's second cake.

Yep, 2nd.  She had 3.

You heard me - 3 cakes.....AND.... one cupcake! (more on that one in another blog - it was..in my best New Yorker accent.... Fabulous! )


 
This cake was from Grandma & Grandpa Lopez....

  
Ah, yes, the 2 Grandmothers...Grandma & Grammie....East meets West..
New Jersey and Utah
Daddy's Mamma and Mommy's Mamma...

 
Ella "looks" like she's caught in the "middle" - but really, how lucky can a little girl get to have not one but 2 doting "Grandma/Grammies" to love her...

  
Oh, and I want you to meet Farley...You will see him in and around New York as we saw the sights, ate the food, partied at American Girl and generally took the East Coast by storm... 

Have a glorious tomorrow.
