Always make doughnuts at someone else's house

I called up Kay on Wednesday and asked it I could come over and make some doughnuts that I saw on pinterest at her house. Mostly because I didn't want to have them all at my house to eat and really wanted to try making them. The we're so easy! Just got some pillsbury biscuit dough cut out the center and deep fried them. Kay did a great job at mixing up the icing. Success!!

Surprise Jenn (because I think you secretly read this)

Just finished skyping with my nephew Benson. We had a very important conversation about the game he is playing, his wake up dry chart, and the snowman in his backyard. He asked me very important questions like: why do you live in Edmonton, is your tv on, and do you have any little boys.
All I have to say is it's about time you got Skype so we could have important conversations like this because I like the a lot!!

They grow up too fast

Took Maizy to the vet this morning. She weighs 5.8lbs and is doing great according to the vet. Funny thing was when he asked how house training was going I said really well just as Maizy let out a little on the table, way to prove me wrong girl. She took her shots like a pro.
