First Day of First Grade!!

Briana and Kaitlyn are in the first grade!! They are NOT in the same class - we requested, but have aready managed to get into some trouble in their P.E. class. For the most, they have enjoyed the first week together.

They love having backpacks this year, since they didn't get to have them last year. Hooray for school!!

Cake - Yumm-O!

I made this cake for a baby shower. It was chocolate with chocolate icing and the baby was made out of fondant icing. This was one of my favorite cakes to make! I am not a huge fan of fondant icing, due to the flavor, but I do like working with it. It makes cakes stand out. It took about 3 hours total to make the baby.

It was a HUGE hit at the baby shower. Everyone loved it and the guest of honor saved the face - I think to eat it when the baby arrives. :o)

You know......it reminds me of Charlie Brown!

I made this pink cross cake for Alonzo's cousin. Her daughter was getting baptized and wanted a cross cake. The cake was marble flavor and pink buttercream icing with a fondant bow.

The bow took a while to make, but was a beautiful finishing touch. Everyone loved the cake!

I made these chocolate covered apples and strawberries for Alonzo cousin that got married last month. I even made these in a hotel the day of the wedding! It was very easy to make and once again, everyone loved them!
