yeah. i'd say they were pretty pimp. (*snicker, snicker, snicker*) They're for Kolt's younger brother and he doesn't read my blog so don't tell, k? He actually knows (sorta) that I was making these for him. You see, our convo went like this:
me: "Clay, what do you want for christmas?"
Clay: "Uhhh, I dunno."
me: "Well, if you don't say what you want you're going to get scrabble pillows that spell out PIMP."
Clay: "Ok."
There you have it.
-------------------------------------
It was my birthday the other day. It was Kolt's birthday that same day too but since it's my blog I'm going to talk about my birthday.
It was fun. We got massages in the morning (we totally regretted this the next day when all our muscles were in total spaz-tastic shape. ouchie) and then went to our favorite BBQ place Pat's. So. Good. And then we finished up Christmas shopping for the kids. I made two cakes, one for me and one for kolt the next day. Both were delish. Both may have something to do with the early onset of Diabetes for us. Sugar is sort of in high gear around here. Besides two cakes, we have homemade toffee (my parents give this out every year), homemade twix bars, homemade caramel clusters, and sugar cookies. We'be been trying to pawn them off on unsuspecting neighbors and such so hopefully we might have room for some christmas cookies in the future. and then we're all going on a sugar detox come jan 1st. (not really but we probably should.)
--------------------------------------
And now my thoughts turn to painting. I almost got out my watercolors today but then I had to finish the PIMP pillows. so perhaps tomorrow. we'll see. I feel the need to paint my grandmother a painting for her birthday since she feels like everyone forgets her birthday. (hi grandma! no promises but I really do want to paint ya something.) Everyone should call her and say happy birthday to her on the 29th. she'd love that.

hahaha! hope he likes the pillows!
Happy Happy Birthday late! I'm glad you guys got to go out.
It does sound like you have lots of treats in your house! Maybe even more than us. . . which I wondered if it was possible. :)
MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!!!!!! WUHU!
I want those pillows. Ammon would think I was the coolest wife ever if he came home to those pillows on our bed.
Also, happy birthday! How fun that you and Kolt share the day.
I am wondering how I missed your birthday on fb..but Happy Birthday! I am checking out that Twix bar recipe...I'm not a big baker/candy maker but those would be such a hit at our home! Had a fun visit with Brian at the mall a week ago--was so happy he searched me out and we got to chat in Crazy 8. :)
add an egg to the shortbread recipe for the twix bars if you make them. it helps the cookie part stay together! they're really really good.
