The Blanks (aka Ted's band from SCRUBS)



This weekend I took a road trip with some good friends to LaCrosse, WI to see The Blanks (Ted's band from Scrubs). It was a about a 14 hour round trip drive but it was totally worth it! The band is an acapella group and also do comedy on the side, it was a great concert.
The venue didn't allow photos or video so I had to hide my camera and didn't get whole or great footage but atleast it's something!
The first video is the theme song to Scrubs and the second is their version of Somewhere Over the Rainbow.

Tooth Fairy

Wes lost his first tooth on Sunday!

Sweet Treats

For Valentine's Day, I decided to whip up some special pancakes for breakfast. I added a bit of food coloring to the batter and made each boy his favorite colored pancake. Jack wanted purple and Wes wanted green!
I didn't really think it would make a difference but they seemed to eat more than usual!


I tried my hand at making French Macarons. They were super easy to make and I will be trying again. I added raspberry flavoring and the filling was a raspberry vanilla buttercream.
They are supposed to have a raised dome to them but I think I over mixed, they tasted wonderful anyway!
