decorating cupcakes...

From this:



To this:





I bought a cup cake decorating kit at the weekend with my 40% off coupon and today I finally got to try it out...I have never used an icing bag before but have always wanted to make pretty cupcakes.....so this is my VERY first attempt...Abigail decorated most of them with jelly beans and the special jelly diamonds for cakes.....I decorated a few with just sprinkles....the children just got home from school.....they are digging in to the cupcakes already and are loving them :)

So now I just need to keep baking cupcakes so I can practice with the icing bag........its not easy lol! I have several different tips to try out too.........

Easter baking........





This afternoon Abigail and I did some baking for Easter....we made Spiced Easter cookies.....and Abigail cut them out and she made hearts and ducks and a few circles......they are delicious - even Lloyd loves them and hasn't stopped eating them since they cooled!!!

Abby Banana.......

math fun.....






Abigail and Sam sat at the table for a while and used the pattern math set we have.......'Busy Bugs'.......Abigail was adding with the bugs and Sam was using them to match the colours and th epatterns on the boards.......then Sam spent a while just running around with the plastic bugs :)

It is so lovely having Lloyd home this week...he has been finishing the painting around the house and catching up on unfonished jobs here...it is still snowing so we have had a lazy day at home but its been really nice :)
