happy birthday daddy


Neil's birthday! The big 42. Apparently you become even wiser and better at everything the instant you turn 42. I think, for sure you become even more handsome :)

Jake made Daddy a birthday card, and painted him a special rock as a pressie.

homemade pasta

Neil has been making alot of homemade pasta lately, and it has been a delicious treat. Make dough, cover it in oil and let it sit for 1 hour. Roll out with rolling pin, and let the sheet dry on a rack for 30 minutes. Then roll up the sheet, and cut across the sheet, and unroll the spiraled sheet to make the pasta pieces. Jake helps.

cuppies

We had a fantastic evening with Riki, James and Miss Ainsley enjoying their gorgeous deck on an awesome summer night! Jake had a blast playing with his friend. Riki got these little cupcakes as a special treat for them.
Jake as you can see jumped right in. He kept repeating "Cuppy. Cuppy. Cuppy." I think he likes cupcakes.
Miss Ainsley is not too sure about hers....
