.suckers.

Amy has been so good to come visit me so often lately. Kindergarten really screws up my day. I don't have time to do much of anything during the week. I've promised her I'll make it up next year when Gage is in 1st grade.

Mom let us divide her sucker making supplies so we decided to get together and make some. Amy got some flavorings and we made 3 whole batches! Watermelon, Root Beer and Key Lime.



The kids were pretty excited about all that candy!

The lip mold was Amy's new addition to the collection and they made great photo props!


They stayed for dinner and Brynn and Katy toasted in celebration. Josh has since thrown out all of Brynn's sippy cups so this is the last official photo with her beloved. She misses them and so do I.

Ha....too bad they were weird colors? I guess root beer tastes the same weather they are brown or poop green! Sad....I miss the sippy cup too! Um, could you throw me a bone here and give me your sippy cups or anything else you ever get rid of for crying out loud! Ha!!!!

Oh and not that it matters, but you may want to try the "cool as a cucumber" action on shots inside that have weird yellow colors. Really makes a huge difference if you care!
