A whole lot of nothing....

but fun stuff for me. It's hard to be in party mode, because then it's all I think about. It's that whole OCDness. It makes me obsessed with things. While on the Internet last night, I was looking for cute "pink stuff" for Kai's party. I came across this website. I had to share. It has any baking supplies you can imagine. Cute stuff too. Not just your average cupcake baking cups. They have some with stripes, polka dots, etc. etc. They have the biggest selection of cupcake and cake toppers I have ever seen. Check it out, I'm sure you will love it.


And, while I'm on the subject of cupcakes, I have a confession to make. Granted, it's an old confession, but I have to do it. While in NYC, I cheated! Yes, that's right, I cheated on Magnolia Bakery cupcakes. That's it, it's out! Phew, it feels good to come clean. First, I cheated on them with these cupcakes from a cute restaurant called Alice's Tea House. There was this vanilla and red velvet cupcake just looking at me. I had no choice. They were very good. Then, right down the street from our hotel, there was a cupcake bakery called Crumbs. Oh noooooo, I did it again. They had the best flavors. Pistachio, Cosmopolitan, so, so many. And this little number down here.

The Caramel Apple cupcake. It was cupcake heaven. And guess what? Are you ready? They ship!! Oh yes they do. Just go online, place your order, and they arrive at your door. So click on here to place an order of your very own Crumbs cupcakes. Do it, you know you want to. And...FYI, I did make it to Magnolia too! So there, I redeemed myself. I even brought Magnolia cupcakes back home with me. I made a special trip in the morning and carried them on the plane with me.
So, on to the next subject. I realized that I never blogged about SYTYCD. And please, it's not like I'm an expert or anything. I just love it, and have watched it since the very first season faithfully. This season, I was really impressed more by the girls, than the boys. Initially, my favorite was Kayla. 1. Because she was an NYCDA alumni 2. I like her technique and her feet. Slowly, Jeannine started growing on me. She kept getting hip hop and dances that didn't really show off her technique. Then, in one interview that she did, she talked about how she was told that she would never be a dancer because her turnout was bad. And that she was surprised to have made it this far. I really liked her after that and really started voting for her. When she did her solo in the final four, I just loved it! The control that she had on her turns was amazing. I was so happy that she won. In five seasons, she is the second girl to win. And as much as I like Sabra, I still think that Danny should have won that year. Oh well. Anyways.....a new season is just a few weeks away. So tune in to watch Season 6 of SYTYCD on Fox on September 9th!
Here are three of my favorite routines this season.
Group number choreographed by Dimitri, Tabitha and Napoleon
Jeannine and Jason choreographed by Travis Wall
Kayla and Kapono choregrahed by Sonja Tayek and yes, I love it even more because she used music from the Twilight Soundtrack. : )



ok, so that's the end of my "whole lot of nothings".

Here are pictures of the invitations for Kassie's 13th Birthday party. I had so much fun making them. Hum...maybe because I used my three favorite colors, maybe because I like to make invitations, or maybe it's just because I LOVE to plan parties. Either way, here is a sneak peak. Sorry the pictures are so bad, my camera is dead and I used my phone.

My life through my iPhone 2

Part II of "My life through my iPhone.                    Saturday was the Marcos De Niza Homecoming!  Kassie and Aaron had a blast!  I was able to finish Kassie's ballroom shoes on Sunday. It was spirit week for Corona del Sol and on Monday it was TV character day.  She dressed as Blaire Waldorf from Gossip Girl.  Corona had a bon fire on Thursday, and the Pommies performed a hip hop routine.  Here is a picture I stole from Instagram. On Saturday evening, the kids decided to carve pumpkins.  Here is Nachito and Chanel getting ready to carve. Kassie and her friend Amanda did some carving too!  These may not be great posts, but it's a start.

Just how long has it been? A long, long time....

Not so much of a Blogaholic. I almost feel the need to change the name of my poor little blog. It has sat here deserted with no updates and no pictures. I think about it everyday, yet I can't seem to find the time to come back to it. My intention for my blog was to document so much of our days and lives. And yet, I have let months go by without one little entry. There is no way my mind can remember everything that has happened since my last post. So much missed. The majority of Kai's 8th grade year, and the majority of Nachito's 5th grade year. Not to mention how many holidays and important events I have missed. Trips and of course Birthday parties. Somehow I need to find the time to record these events, and even if I have to back date them, I will document them at some point. This week is a tough school week for the kids. AIMS testing for both of them. Today they both felt very good about how they did. Nothing much has changed in Kai's world. She still dances, still c...
