The amazing train cake.
We hated to eat it after it was all done.

Moriah and Joe decided to come up for the weekend.  it was Jon's birthday on Sat. and Eric's on Monday.  We all had a great time.  Joe brought his snowmobiles up.  I made a lasagna dinner and cheese cake for Jon's birthday.
Sunday Moriah and Mishael made this fantastic train cake.  Train cakes are a tradition in our family.  Just about everybody had a train cake at one birthday or another.  Well this one was pretty fancy and it turned out really nice.

The whole weekend I didn't know if I would be able to be home.  It's been a crazy couple of weeks because I ended up with 3 overdue mom's and 1 due today.  That's 4 ladies that can and should be having their baby's any time.
Finally Wednesday one of them had their baby and the next 3 went in labor on Sunday!  Yep!  All 3 started labor the same day.  
But God helped the timing.  One of the labors quited down, the other one delivered Monday morning, the next one Monday afternoon.  We have 2 birth rooms at the birth center and we juggled people and stuff around and had 2 babies born on the 9Th.  Now it's Monday evening and the last mom is on her way in.  The only problem is I've only slept maybe 4 hours.  Hopefully I'll be alert enough to make wise decisions.
