Play-dates are fun!

On Wednesday my friend Mary and I had a play-date. She brought her doll with her and we had so much fun playing together.We were thinking that it would be fun if our dolls had a pet. We brought out my pet hamster and we pretended that my hamster was a little baby puppy it was really cute. I love having play-dates with Mary and I am looking forward to seeing her and her doll Lily again soon.

Crochet Hats For Dolly and Me

My Nanny is very good at knitting. She made me a cute hate with a flower on it she also made a smaller version in purple for my doll Avery. My Nanny is knitting me a purse next. My mom's says she should knit drapes for the house, she is such an amazing knitter! I would like to learn how to knit one day. I would knit a coat for my dog and maybe some matching boots.

Making Cake Pops

We made cake pops today! My mom didn't follow a specific recipe. She basically made a home made chocolate cake and stirred some fruit spread inside until the cake was easy to shape into balls. We popped them in the refrigerator for about an hour. Once they hardened we dipped our cake pops in melted dark chocolate and sprinkled  them with nonpareils. I can't wait to share them with my friends.

I Love Cake Pops

Yesterday my mom and dad went to Starbucks and they brought home cake pops for my brother and I. Mine was pink with white sprinkles on the top and my brothers was chocolate with marshmallows. My mom and I are going to find out how to make our own cake pops. I can't wait! I hope you enjoy the video I posted by "Bakerella".

Sometimes I invite my brother to my tea party's. You can see that he is not polite though. He looks like he's trying to shove that whole cupcake into his mouth. I had to remind him that it was a "fake" cupcake.

Dance Festival

I take ballet classes. This weekend was our dance festival. My dance group did a dance called Les Corbeaux. Corbeeaux means "Crow" in french. You can't see it in the picture but I was wearing crow's wings as part of my costume. We practiced our dance a lot and it was fun to perform  for my parents. I liked watching the other dancer's too. There were so many colorful costumes.
