Our perfect 10!!!

As promised, I have enclosed pictures from Nalah-B's first USA Gymnastics sanctioned meet last Friday. Some of the pictures area a little fuzzy but I thought I would include them anyway. The day was a true adventure for the entire family considering we traveled to Louisville, KY while the Blizzard of '08 hit the KY and Ohio area.
Nalah competed on all events as a level 3 gymnast. Her team placed 3rd and she had a blast. Her results are listed below:

Vault: 8.2
Beam: 7.9
Floor: 7.85
Bars: 6.7

We are very proud of her considering she has only trained as a level 3 since January. Her season is over but she will continue to
train for next year's season. 2016 Olympics here she comes!!!!

Enjoy!

We are the jolly Snow Brigade, With our trusty shovels we make a raid.

Just a quick post for now b/c I have become the hot chocolate lady for the time being.
Our snow tally is somewhere between 12-14 inches of snow. We have another small round coming tonight. Daylights savings time is tonight so I know that spring is coming soon!!!

Nalah's stats are coming too.

Oh, that's my hubby digging us out. It was so cool, all the folks in the neighborhood came out this afternoon for fun in the snow, shoveling, and snow blowing. These are the times that make my heart warm and fuzzy.

I wanna take a minute or two, and give much respect due To the man that's made a difference in my world What a man, what a man, what a man...

I must take my hat off to my hubby,Chaka for getting us to Nalah-B's meet safely and back home again in what REALLY is the BIGGEST storm that we have seen since we first moved here in '04.
The meet was in Louisville, KY, usually less than a 2 hours drive but this morning it took us 3.5 hours to get there. We woke us to the quiet before the storm. By 8:30 AM visibility was getting worse but we made the decision to get in the car with plenty of food, blankets and water to take my baby to her first USA Gymnastics sanctioned event. Check in time was 1:30 pm and we made it to the meet by 1pm. Yeah it took us a while but it was so worth is. Nalah-B did well. I will share her stats with you tomorrow since we will be snowed in for sure.

Well, I am off to rest my tired legs.

I got da berry blues

Just a quick post. It is crazy busy over here. I am preparing for the big Jack and Jill event this weekend. This is the big even where Harmony Cupcakes beat out several other local bakeries including the Sheraton in Sharonville where the event is being held. All of my specialty ingredients are here but I still have a trip to Sam's Club or GFS for sugar and butter. I am excited but nervous about this event. The planning committee was really hard to please and I do not want to disappoint. They put great emphasis on elegance and I just want the customer to be satisfied. I ordered a cupcake tree that holds 300 cupcakes, and I am spending the next 2 days decorating it. Keep me in your thoughts. I will be sure to take pictures for you.

My mommy is also coming!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

She has not been out to visit since May, which is the longest we have gone without seeing one another.

Anywho, I gotta get Nalah-B off to gymnastics practice.

More to come soon.

Oh, I almost forgot......the cupcake pictures are from last week's pretty in pink strawberry and I got da blues order. They were a huge hit at 53rd Bank!
