Sleeping Beauty and Cake Balls for the Firemen

Ok so many of you know that Allie really wanted to be a princess again for Halloween and for a while I kept saying okay you can be a princess but you're going to use the yellow dress from last year again if that's what you want to be. That was fine for awhile until we went to Walmart and she saw a pink southern belle costume and decided that she wanted to be a pink princess not a yellow princess. So what did I do... Yes Amanda I caved. Allan and I saw this dress on sale (less than the pink costume at walmart) in Sunday ads and agreed that she could be a pink princess. We told her that if she was good and went to bed I would take her to the store in the morning to get a surprise. She was so excited to finally have her pink dress. These were the best pictures I could get because trying to take a picture of her these days is not very easy. I'm not sure though which she was more excited about trick-or-treating or the fact that I put makeup on her.


MMMM CAKE BALLS!!! I made Allan some cake balls for his birthday and took them to his work the next day one of the guys there called him over and asked him what it would take to make some cake balls for their Firefighter Halloween Party. I said I would make them if they would buy the ingredients. They tried to pay me for my time but really how can you take money from volunteer firefighters. The only problem with cakeballs is that they are really good and I really wanted to eat them myself. I did save a few since there ended up being way more than what they said they needed.
