Chocolate Covered Strawberries and a Baby Boy!
As a fun Mother's Day treat, we decided to make our own chocolate covered strawberries! Originally I thought it might be rather difficult and time-consuming, but it ended up only taking about 2 hours from start to finish and was fun for us to do. We used almond bark, heavy whipping cream, and a little butter for the dipping chocolate. For the decoration, we used Betty Crocker brownie toppers--cream cheese and dark chocolate. If you warm them up in the microwave, put them in a sealed sandwich bag, and cut a tiny triangle off of the corner, it's perfect for decorating.
In other news, we had our 20 week ultrasound last Friday and found out we are having a boy! We're thinking about names, so if you have any ideas you'd like to share, we're open to them. I am so excited to have a little baby boy in our lives--it will be a grand adventure!
