Quality Time With My Cae Cae.....

I've always day dreamed of making cookies with my little sister
        (but I never had a little sister)......

then I day dreamed about making cookies with my daughter
         (but I never had a daughter)........

   But dreams do come true...

I got to make cookies with my granddaughter Cae Cae
this last Friday. I don't know if she will ever know how precious this moment was for her "Ammy."

I had to capture the moments with her. Although she was so tired and extremely her usual self as the boss and mean when she is tired, she really seemed to be enjoying the experience! 
                        
Check out the expression on her face it's not a frown but she is in deep thought trying to make the balls perfect!











After our baking and tasting time she just couldn't keep her eyes open.
I loved every bit of it!!!!
I love being a Grammy or as Cae Cae calls me "Ammy"

Knott's Berry Farm 2013

It's that time again!
Our annual trip to Knott's Berry Farm with Liz & Hiriam and our grandbabies!
We had a blast as usual!!!!

We started off with pics with Snoopy on our way to the
entrance of Camp Snoopy!

Cae Cae looks bored here before her ride on the child's version of free fall.
But she was soon surprised!!!
She did not like this one.....had to take her off!

The kids were having a blast while they waited on the lines
for their favorite rides.....

Zaeden and Cae Cae had a loved the train ride but Cae Cae
cried every time each ride was done....
And who dressed the kid in the front row? Yikes!!!

Cuddle Time!!!!

Is that a phony smile on Cae Cae's face or what?

Bree and Zae Zae and YaYa and Cae Cae....

Cae Cae waiting for the next ride....

I think Sheri loves the rides more than the kids!!!
She rode all of the rollercoasters fearlessly!!!!

Best buddies!

Cae Cae stealing the shot!

Weeeeee........

Ya Ya and Bree.

Zae Zae and his Grandma.

Tired after a long day on the rides but it was so much fun!!!
Look forward to the next time.....

Damsel In De-Stress Creations....2014

This is a logo my friend Pam sketched for me a few years ago for my trailer.
Everybody that has to work for a living wishes that they can do something that
they really and truly love doing instead of working at a job that they hate.
Well, I'm no different!
I have been in business for many years now doing what I absolutely hate
 "Bookkeeping,"
(but it's what I know how to do)!

So I decided that I am going to try to transition into something that makes me happy while things are slow for my business....

I am going back to doing my stained glass which I have always found to be
therapeutic and making junk jewelry.
I plan to sell my items on
Etsy under my business name "Damsel In De-Stress Creations"
So I will keep you posted.....
