Planning our #DisneySide Celebration

Who says that cinnamon decorations are only for Christmas? Not I said the fly. We decided as one of the party treats we would make Mickey Mouse shaped cinnamon ornaments. My thought is maybe for the moms to put them in their car. My house smells sooooo good. 
Step 1) 1.5 cups of cinnamon. 
Step 2)  1 cup applesauce (we used the cinnamon kind because it's what we like to eat). 
Step 3) Mix well, you may need to get your hands dirty. 
Step 4) roll out to about 1/4" between 2 sheets of wax paper. 
Step 5) cut your desired shapes and carefully move them to your parchment lined pan. Poke hole with a lollipop stick or straw before baking. 
Step 6) Bake at 200 degrees for about 1 1/2 to 2 hours. They should be rock hard, if they're not allow them to stay in pan overnight. (We also sprinkled with a little red glitter, we are doing the party on Valentine's Day) 
Then voila, you are done and have super cute Mickeys that make the room smell wonderful. 
And to make them even cuter? Glitter glue !

Fun and scooter boards


I have a special needs little boy but you would never know it by his actions. He was only 3 years old in this picture and he has NO FEAR. We went to the skate park with other kids that have spina bifida (he has something similar but more rare called caudal regression syndrome) One of his friends had a scooter board they let him try because he's not really steady enough for skates or a regular skateboard (he would not try his stand up scooter) and he took off. We stayed for about 2 hours and he went down every ramp, some just sliding without the board.
Never let a disability cloud your judgement of what someone is capable of. This little guy and so many others like him should never have been able to walk but as you can see he soars!! ALWAYS wear safety gear ! to learn a little more about him visit http://facebook.com/jeremysjourneywithcrs or http://isacra.org



Waiting for the next time
