Rainbow Party

Sorry I haven't posted much this week. I have been busy with family in town and working on my daughters 5th birthday party.
I had great aspirations for this party and I ran out of money. Luckily the one thing that turned out how I had planned were the cupcakes.
I love how they turned out.

Dream Master....

I am obsessed with this Master Bedroom. I LOVE it! I can't get enough of looking at it.
Not only do I love the textures but I LUUUUVE the color, the size and shape of the room (okay, that might not be something that I can duplicate) and of coarse the furniture. Take a look....


I think my favorite thing is the combination of the light blue, navy blue and yellow. I am totally changing the colors of my master bedroom now. And this is what I am basing it off of. Do you think I can pull it off in my tiny little bedroom?

I got the idea for this on a website that always has great ideas.... Brooklyn Limestone.

PS...if you are in love with the tufted comforter like me, Walmart currently has a line of them in the Better Homes and Gardens line. The only problem for me is that they don't have that light blue that I love.

Sunday's Sermon, Happy Father's Day

First off I want to say Happy Father's Day to all of you out there, especially my father, father- in - law and especially the father of my children. These three men mean so much to me. I don't know if I could ask for better examples for me and my children. They are the most loving, kind, patient and fun men to be with.

I also have to let you all know how much I am thankful for my Father in Heaven. Without him, this life would not mean much. The fact that he has given me the ultimate gift of eternal life, I will be ever grateful.

I saw this new Father and Sons video this morning and thought I would share it with you all.

Guitar Grooms Cake


This was a cake that I did a year ago for my sister's wedding. There were two parts of the cake; the guitar for my brother in law, and the water polo ball for my sister. I was very happy with the results, especially considering that it was a hectic week and I was literally finishing the cakes during the luncheon right before the wedding.

If you love Dr. Pepper or you just love tender ribs, then you NEED to try this recipe.

Pretty Simple, just give it time....

Isn't that what good meat always takes...Time!

Don't worry, these are worth the time.
Don't they look amazing?

Ingredients:
1 Rack of Ribs bone in (Pork or Beef)
3 Liters Dr. Pepper
2-3 bottles BBQ Sauce

Directions:
1. Start by separating the ribs in groups of 2 if you are doing large ribs or groups of 3 for baby back. Place into a deep pan.
2. Cover Ribs in Dr. Pepper. And bring to a boil. Boil on Med-High for 1 - 1 1/2 hours.
3. Pour out about 1/2 Dr. Pepper. Add 2 bottles (possibly 3 if you have a large rack). Bring back to a boil and lower boil to Medium.
4. Boil for 2 hours so that sauce thickens and decreases. (Prep grill while ribs cook)
5. Place Ribs on the Grill for 3-5 minutes on each side.

Enjoy!
