A wonderful day

Hello Dears,
So what I about to post about was supposed to be posted yesterday but our internet was not working so obviously that held me back from posting.
Yesterday was a wonderful day it started when my mom woke me up and told me to get dressed because we were going to breakfast.

Went to a local bakery/restaurant and had a very good breakfast.

Beautiful Bread

Soy Milk!!!

Soy milk and 

cherry chocolate chip scone

Biscuits and gravy, Yum!

even with the help of my brother  

we couldn't finish the biscuits 

and gravy. 

and with the help of my dad we finished the scone

We went to this awesome cupcake supply shop and it 

felt like I was in cupcake heaven!

awesome whisk

cupcake liners

cupcake liners 

 and more cupcake liners! 

 
A sparkly cardigan at GAP

During our outing Toots managed to accidentally break a glass at the cupcake store and get mistaken for a GAP employee. 
After we browsed in couple other shops we came home.
For the rest of the afternoon I drew, organized, hung around, and went to the fabric store to get some fabric for a bag I'm making.
After we had dinner we had Fruit strudel and played Settlers of Catan (the best game ever you have to play it!) we didn't get done playing it until a rather late time so I went right to bed. Im very excited because Toots, some friends of ours,and I get to babysit a bunch of kids for a New Years party it will be crazy and awesome at the same time. Ill try to post tomorrow!
Lots of LOVE, 
and a happy new year!

So who is Toots?

So today as I was eating a very fine breakfast of chocolate chip pancakes a strange thought occurred to me, all this time you might have been wondering "why in the world is this blog called 

"The Adventures of Babycakes AND Toots" when every post 

(except the first one) is signed Babycakes" well the answer is…

(ok so right now I really want to say that Toots is my sister who is a secret agent who had to leave me after the first post to go save the world on a dangerous mission in the Bermuda Triangle but     

no that would be a lie) instead … Toots is my wonderful sister who is ever so patient with me and saves me from boredom every day."the Adventure of Babycakes and Toots" started out as a partner blog with Toots but it was really hard to find a window of available time for both of us to sit down and post so… Toots just gave me the blogging part to me and she would be the photographer.  
Ok on one last thing to Clarify is you haven't read the first "Toots" is not pronounced like the Bodily function caused by eating too many beans rather pronounced like the beginning of the word "tootsieroll". Wow that feels good to clear all that up.
I hope you enjoyed this post!
Lots of LOVE,and a big hug

Psalm 103

This is my favorite psalms 

it really show God's amazing Grace and Mercy 

(just like in the rest of the Bible). 

¹ Praise the LORD, my soul;
   all my inmost being, praise his holy name.
² Praise the LORD, my soul,
   and forget not all his benefits—
³ who forgives all your sins
   and heals all your diseases,
⁴ who redeems your life from the pit
   and crowns you with love and compassion,
⁵ who satisfies your desires with good things
   so that your youth is renewed like the eagle’s.

 ⁶ The LORD works righteousness
   and justice for all the oppressed.

 ⁷ He made known his ways to Moses,
   his deeds to the people of Israel:
⁸ The LORD is compassionate and gracious,
   slow to anger, abounding in love.
⁹ He will not always accuse,
   nor will he harbor his anger forever;
¹⁰ he does not treat us as our sins deserve
   or repay us according to our iniquities.
¹¹ For as high as the heavens are above the earth,
   so great is his love for those who fear him;
¹² as far as the east is from the west,
   so far has he removed our transgressions from us.

 ¹³ As a father has compassion on his children,
   so the LORD has compassion on those who fear him;
¹⁴ for he knows how we are formed,
 ¹⁵ The life of mortals is like grass,
   they flourish like a flower of the field;
¹⁶ the wind blows over it and it is gone,
   and its place remembers it no more.
¹⁷ But from everlasting to everlasting
   the LORD’s love is with those who fear him,
   and his righteousness with their children’s children—
¹⁸ with those who keep his covenant
   and remember to obey his precepts.

 ¹⁹ The LORD has established his throne in heaven,
   and his kingdom rules over all.

 ²⁰ Praise the LORD, you his angels,
   you mighty ones who do his bidding,
   who obey his word.
²¹ Praise the LORD, all his heavenly hosts,
   you his servants who do his will.
²² Praise the LORD, all his works
   everywhere in his dominion.

   Praise the LORD, my soul.

Much LOVE, and many happy thoughts!

nothing like the feeling of Christmas break

Hello my AMAZING followers,

There is nothing like the feeling of waking up on a Wednesday (waking up late) and thinking to myself I don't have any school on my list infact, I have an entire day of adventures ahead of me some of them being...

Having an indoor picnic lunch

Painting faces on marshmallows

Making paper snowflakes out of old book pages

Writing Christmas cards to some of my friends

Cleaning (yes,it can be an adventure)

Packing for going my Grandparents house

Realistically I can't get all those things done in a day because the cleaning part takes a little while but i'll just choose the things that I most want to do.

I hope all of you have an amazing day!

Much LOVE and a bear hug

The Ballerina Project

Hello dears,

I love so many blogs and websites. 

And you can't never have too many websites to look at (right?).

Thanks to my good friend who has a love for ballet (like me) showed me this website called http://ballerinaproject.com/.

The Ballerina Project is a group of photographers and ballerinas who go to big cities in the US ( actually the first Ballerina Project was in Hawaii)(New York City and Brooklyn) and take pictures of the ballerinas in cityscape and various others scenes.

These are some of my favorite Ballerina Project pics

Lots of LOVE,tutus,

and perfectly pink pointe shoes

Things I've learned today

Hello loves!

For some reason I seem to be learning

 a lot of random things today.

1.It is really hard to carry two fat cats at the same time

(I found this out when my neighbors cats escaped and I had to carry them both inside at once or else the other one would run away again)

2.Alexander the Great died in 1322 B.C.

3.That when typing on the computer if you press (option) and then a letter or a number on the keyboard instead of just plain old letters and numbers showing up on the screen cool Greek letters and symbols show up.

4.Beatrix Potter's birthday is the day after mine or July 28.

5. Sometimes (most of the time) when your playing sports 

(boy vs. girls) the boy almost always beat the girls no matter how fast the girls are or how hard the girls work.

6. That whenever you are board...

Blog!!

Well I hope you liked this post!

lots and lots and lots of LOVE,and hot cocoa with big plump marshmallow floating on top.
