M-O-T-H-E-R

"M" is for the million things she gave me,
"O" means only that she's growing old,
"T" is for the tears she shed to save me,
"H" is for her heart of purest gold;
"E" is for her eyes, with love-light shining,
"R" means right, and right she'll always be,
Put them all together, they spell "MOTHER,"
A word that means the world to me.
--Howard Johnson (c. 1915) 

These next two pictures just about sum up our child.....

NEVER A DULL MOMENT!!!

Happy Mother's Day!!!!!

In Loving Memory...

Rest in Peace Mrs. Lollar!  Forever in our hearts.

*23rd Psalm*

The Lord is my Shepherd; I shall not want.
He maketh me to lie down in green pastures:
He leadeth me beside the still waters.
He restoreth my soul:
He leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for His name' sake.

Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death,
I will fear no evil: For thou art with me;
Thy rod and thy staff, they comfort me.
Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies;
Thou annointest my head with oil; My cup runneth over.

Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life,
and I will dwell in the House of the Lord forever.

Rainbow Cake!

I have been wanting to try this recipe for a while.  Check it out!!!!

Here is how it's done...

First you need

You will also need eggs and oil for the cake.  Follow the directions on the cake box and mix the batter in a large bowl.  Next you want to divide the batter in to 6 small bowls.  I used a 1/3 measuring cup to do this.  Once you have all the batter divided you need to mix the colors.  These gel colors are much brighter than the liquid food coloring.  Mix blue and red to make purple.  Directions for orange are on the box.  Add coloring until the colors are as bright as you would like.  It should look like this...

Next you need 2 9in pans sprayed with cooking spray.  Use your 1/3 measuring cup and start with red.  Fill the measuring cup with red and dump in the center of the pan.  Then do the same thing with orange.  Make sure you dump the color in the center of the previous color.  Continue with yellow, green, blue and purple.  You will see that you have enough of each color to do about 1/3 c in each pan.  You will do the same thing in the other pan EXCEPT layer the colors in opposite order (purple, blue, green, yellow, orange and red).  IT DOESN'T HAVE TO BE PERFECT!!!

Bake the cake according to the box directions.  I found that my cakes cooked for about 22 min.  

When finished cooking let cool before icing.  You can use ANY KIND of icing you choose.  I used -

Place one cake on a plate and ice the top and sides well.  Next place the other cake UPSIDE DOWN on the first cake (this will make the top flat).  Ice the top layer.  

Now here comes the big reveal! Slice in and get a piece!!!

ENJOY!!!
