Birthday Boy Benjamin!

You will always be my baby! First birthday!
Three years old!
Holy Cow! Benjamin is 7!
This was my attempt at a Lego cake. You can kind of see it. Can't you?
I failed miserably, but Ben didn't care.
He only wanted to eat the leftover frosting!

Birthday Girl!

Once upon a time, Lauren was a little baby girl.

Then, she grew into a teenager overnight!

Happy 13th Birthday Lauren!

"To Do List" Song

You must go watch this:

I sat and laughed out loud. You will too! All of us are in different chapters of our lives, but we can all relate to this funny song by Hillary Weeks. She is a great LDS artist. I love her music and have two of her CDs. I came across this video really late last night. There are a couple of other videos of her on youtube too. I hope this makes you laugh. Let me know if it does!

The blonde wig

And now...

the moment you've all been waiting for!

Me.

In an absolutely hideous blonde wig!

It just wouldn't be right

if I didn't show you my wardrobe too!

Once upon a time these shorts were really in style.

Meet Diane Fleming.

The woman I portrayed for the latest "Snapped" episode.She is now serving time in prison for poisoning her husband. I think she could be innocent. You can google her and decide for yourself.

Snapped!

I'm so excited today because I have a job on Wednesday and Thursday of this week. From time to time I get calls from an agency here called Talent Trek. They need people to come participate in small acting jobs, photo shoots, commercials, etc.

Last May I shot an episode for a show called "Snapped" on the Oxygen Network. I played a woman who murdered her husband. I was only silhouetted and the shots were still. It was disturbing to me to pretend to shoot my pretend husband in bed. Anyway, it was interesting and good money for 5 hours of work. I'm not sure when the episode will be on t.v. Sometime this Fall.

Anyway, I'm going to play another murdering wife for "Snapped" on Wednesday and Thursday. Except this time, I get to wear a blonde wig. Ugh! I am not a blonde. My eyebrows are very dark. Whatever, I'll just do what they tell me. I can't wait to find out what my murder weapon is this time.

I start teaching piano lessons this week too. I'm very excited for that. I've got some great students!

Pizza!

We have been having fun making pizza lately. I have finally found a great pizza dough recipe. (see recipe at www.mcgeegirlscafe.blogspot.com.) It is chewy on the inside, and crispy on the outside. I also bought this great pan at Target. It has these tiny holes in the pan that keep the pizza from getting soggy. I never really had a problem with soggy pizza, but the pan sure works great. Matthew and Ben are really excited to eat this pizza!
I made this fruit pizza for our "recipe group" that was meeting at my house. I can't take credit for the fruit design, Jessica decorated this beautiful cookie. The theme for our recipe group this month was homemade pizza. Everyone brought a pizza, and some calzones. It was so fun to sit around and try everyones pizza.

My sisters and some of my nieces have put together a recipe blog. If you want to try some new yummy recipes go to http://www.mcgeegirlscafe.blogspot.com/.
