Fun Filled Family Weekend and Red Velvet Cake Balls!

"Give your burdens to the Lord, and he will take care of you. He will not permit the godly to slip and fall." Psalm 55:22

We had a great weekend. We left Thursday night and headed to Demopolis. Jay's grandparents came down from TN and it was good to see them.

One of the many reasons we go to Demopolis. Our beautiful niece, Eva Michael!

10 months old!!

I made this recipe that I found on www.kellyskornerblog.com and took it this weekend, along with the peanut butter treats. It was easy and tasty!

Red Velvet Cake Balls:

1 box of cake mix (I used Red Velvet but you can use whatever you like)
1 can of frosting (I used cream cheese frosting to go with the red velvet)
White almond bark

Bake the cake according to the directions

After taking it out of the oven, while it's still warm, crumble it up in a bowl and mix in the can of frosting.
Next, refrigerate the cake and frosting mix for about an hour before you start making balls.

Melt the white almond bark ( or chocolate bark, depending on what cake mix you use) and dip balls in the bark. You could use tooth picks or a fork. I started off using a fork but then found it easier to use a tooth pick.

Place on wax paper and refrigerate ( they were better cold).
