To say that we've had a busy week would be an understatement. I'm way behind on blogging (and pretty much everything else), so here's a quick recap of where we've been:
Last week started with Jacob preparing side dishes and desserts for 120 people for
CHCURC's 1st annual Pig Roast and Square Dance. The event was held in the carriage house at Laurel Court (the former Buddy LaRosa's Mansion). The food was great and I absolutely love how people in College Hill Support their community.

Job well done, Jacob. Sorry I didn't get a better picture! |

On Tuesday Jack and I took advantage of the beautiful fall weather and walked to our new polling place to vote.

Check out that tongue! |
I was considering making Jack a Weeble Wobble cake for his birthday. Jack was excited to practice with me:

Happy baker |
On Wednesday we had the privilege to babysit sweet Levi Jumper while his parents went to see Wicked. Jack liked having a buddy around but did not like it when Levi cried. Jack tried to make Levi smile, but when it didn't work, Jack cried too. He's a sensitive kid.

Levi's better here, but Jack was still sad. |
Thursday was
pureHOPE's annual Silent Auction and Fundraising banquet at Manor House in Mason. I didn't get any pictures of the evening, but it was a great night. Jack stayed home with my mom and got a special treat:

Jack's first pet |
Friday was spent preparing for Jack's big birthday party. He helped me to make his birthday cake and cupcakes. Yes, he helped with his own cake...
And I used a box cake mix. I love to bake, but you really can't beat a good boxed cake!
I haven't forgotten about you, loyal blog readers! I promise to work on getting birthday pictures soon.
