At Hy-Vee making themselves treats!

Sugar and ice cream what could be better? 

I saw this on Rachel Ray, seemed . . . 

. . .a lot easier. 

Smoothie!

And it's pink!

How do you like that Chef! 

It's too pretty to eat. 

No, actually it's not. 

We only get one?

I'm going to pretty much lick the bottom. 

and steal Brielle's 

New project. 

It's like a custardy thingy. 

Brain freeze!

And I'm going to eat Rianne's 

Erica! 

Hey, those M&Ms are decorations, not food! 

Just one at the time. 

I made the pizzas all by myself, you know. 

More food?

Hi, I'm Brielle and this is Brielle, we'll see you next week! 

Home in Maryland and some Christmas Pics

Super important the American Girl Doll is safe!  

A little blurry, but Teagan with her American Girl Doll and Grandmom and Grandad Guerra in the background. 

All aboard! 

And a third American Girl Doll, something so funny about her sitting on Brielle's lap! 

It was supposed to be only a 7 passenger van, we've got 10 . . .

You want me to drive? I've driven you enough, I'm the photographer!

Whole lotta fuscia going on there, they colored nicely for at least five minutes. 

Rianne taking pictures of everyone. 

My dad taking pictures of everyone. 

Great to be in Virginia with the Guerra hermanos. 

We always got along well . . . 

And my cousins Yosie and Myriam 

Transporting presents from DC to Iowa . . . 

It's like the Yard Sale on the Ski mountain . . . .

Just needs no words.  

Even the American Girl Doll is out cold, it was a long trip, but totally worth it. 

We're home. Girls? Girls?

And then another Christmas! 

This is great, here . . . 

I'll even share! 

Okay, now give it back.

Okay, I can smile now. 

It was pretty while it lasted . . . .

Some pictures don't need a huge caption
