Mini Update


Well, Stress takes a toll on me. I admit, I am having a hard time hacking this motherhood stuff. My house is a mess, my kids are unruly and I don't get a full 8 hours of sleep as recommended by the FDA. Now, those of you who have known me for years will testify that I very rarely, like 5 times in my life, have had a zit. Well, I must be going thru puberty finally, because my forehead is covered in them. I am just devastated! This picture is after 3 weeks of actually washing my face every night (something that I NEVER do) and 1 week of finally treating it with OXY Clean, (which really makes me feel like a teenager!) They are smaller, but still there! Ugh, I know, poor Molli! Whah Whah Whah.


As for the rest of the clan, same old same old. Dalton got his cast off finally, and he is really happy about that. He finally gets to do some fun stuff like Karate, and he loves it! Casey is taking the class with him too and they have a blast. Speaking of Karate, Tyler and I have also been taking a class together. I am the oldest in the class. That is kinda humiliating being 32 in a class with a bunch of 8-11 year olds. But now Tyler and I are Yellow belts and we are in a class of teenagers! Maybe that is where I got my acne! Alyson was 2 weeks shy of being allowed to take a karate class so she will start next month. Pretty soon we will all be able to gang up on poor Russ with our Karate skills.

My friend asked me if I would roll the fondant for her son's wedding. Well, they turned out, ok. Charm City Cakes won't be calling me any time soon. It was fun to experiment though.







Look at Lydia and Alyson just laying back in the shade, eating pringles! They know how to kick it!







This is on Womens Confrence. My friend April had an extra ticket to go to Salt Lake and see the Confrence, we were in the 8th row. Really nice seats. It was fun to see all the General Authorities and Presidencies of the Church.







This is Isis our cat. She lounges on her back all the time.

molly, saw your site on the relief society one and couldn't help but "peeking" in :).
You really are wonder woman! whipping out fancy cakes at the drop of a dime. I keep watching all those cake shows on the food network and wishing that there was somewhere local that taught how to use fondant. You should be teaching it for enrichment!
You are a pretty cool mom :)

I hear ya! You know I'm kinda going through the same ol' thing! Crazy life, huh? And...I don't get zits either and suddenly have a bunch! I wonder what is going on? Hopefully they'll go away soon. You have always been one of the most beautiful people I've ever seen and those tiny zits don't change that!

Your cakes are wonderful! I've never even touched fondant! Glad you got to escape to the RS Conference. Hang in there!!!

I tell ya YOU are affectionately called Molli the Great by me... everyone can see why. ;) You rock!
I'm making my blog private. I've had a few weirdos visit lately. I'm NOT cool with weirdos! So e-mail me at cami.jensen1980@gmail.com for a new official invite.

I love the cake. I need to learn to make fondant cakes.

Something about you complaining about your skin makes me just a little bit sick to my stomach! Seriously Molli, what we wouldn't all give to have your fabulous complexion!
