We have had a busy and fun week in the Reddington household. Since Daddy didn't have to work this week the kids got a lot of play time in with him and have really enjoyed his company. Over the memorial weekend we were outside constantly between the beach, the park, and the swimming pool. (Matt forgot the sunscreen and is still suffering the consequences.) There are grills and tables right next to the pool area so Matt made us the best hamburgers ever (I must say they were even better than 5 guys). They were so good we had to do it again the next day and plan to continue grilling often.






I found this hilarious! Stephen dressed himself and ended up putting his waiste through one of the leg holes.

I have been baking a little this week and found some interesting things to make.

I had to make this for a baptism and it turned out delicious. All it is is a regular yellow cake with a layer of homemade butter frosting in the middle topped with a cube of butter and melted chocolate chips. The chocolate coats the cake and keeps it extra moist and also tastes like a delicious fudge on top. Very easy.

This is called Pavlova which I found on a friends blog (thanks megan roe) and it is also on the joy of baking website. It is very low fat and delicious. You are suppose to top it with whip cream and fruit and the white fluffy stuff tastes gooey and sticky and delicious.


This last one is suppose to be a cake pop (for those of you who like the bakerella blog which i do then you have seen these before). I did acheivement days this last week and we made them for our activity. Although they look lumpy and not perfect the girls had fun making them and we all had fun eating them! I brought some home for the kids and so Stephen is modeling our creations. I hope everyone had a great Memorial weekend. Thanks for staying tune for such a long post!!
