Last week was a really crazy week. I had to make 2 cakes in a week plus transport one to Kansas for my nephew's birthday. The first cake was for Zach's kindergarten teacher. Her daughter was turning 1. I designed the cake after the party outfit.
Daddy took Wyatt to a friend's birthday party on April 30th and this picture shows just how hard he can play. He had lots of fun running around and his favorite part as always is the balloon.
April 29, 2011 was the day for weddings. Not only was it the day of the Royal wedding, but it was the day I delivered my first wedding cake. I finally got word that the bride and groom absolutely loved their cake!
I have to give many thanks to my brother-in-law for building my cupcake tower stand. Thanks John! It is absolutely gorgeous.
The easter bunny did not miss our house! Zach was up early and just couldn't wait to search the house. He went and woke up Elyzabeth and Wyatt just so he could start the egg hunt. Wyatt was content to let Zach do all the work then just open eggs and eat the candy. Smart boy, that one is.
We celebrated our 8th Anniversary by taking the kids to movies. Scott took Zach to see Rio, while the girls went to see Soul Surfer.
Zach really enjoyed the movie and had to get his picture taken in front of the poster.
We celebrated 8 years of marriage but have been together for 10 yrs. I am constantly amazed by my wonderful and incredible husband. Love you babe!
The past 2 weeks I have been busy with cakes and the next few weeks will be the same. I did a camping cake for a guy turning 40 and this week was a spiderman cake for a little boy turning 5. The next few weeks will be filled with a wedding cake, sweet 16 cake and a little girl's first birthday.
I am enjoying this creative outlet and love learning new techniques. My family love the cake scraps and leftover frosting.
Today Zachary stayed home sick with a fever. The fever has been keeping him contained to the couch. We have been trying to keep the fever down with meds and cool baths. Needless to say he will be seeing the doctor tomorrow.
So Zachary wanted to make sure I knew he didn't feel well today. He brought this message to me today while I was sketching some cake quotes.
It reads: Mom, I don't like being sick.
We found a new show for Wyatt to watch. I think we we're all getting tired of "Max and Ruby". Scott gets credit for finding this show. The show is called Super Why and the main character is a boy named Wyatt. Wyatt and his friends read books to get answers to their problems. It is on PBS and thank goodness they have games on their website for Super Why.
Here is a photo of Wyatt chilling in Daddy's chair watching the show. He dances and mimics everything they do, even reciting the alphabet.
It's that time of year again. We love this time of year, with the bluebonnets and red poppies in bloom. Our lovely town of Georgetown celebrates this precious, delicate red flowers. The weekend starts off with a parade, then there is lots of musicians, food and street vendors to take in. We had a blast this year and the kids loved the parade. Our neighbors went with us and this year Holden got to sit up and watch everything.
Elyzabeth had the opportunity to attend the Priest/Laurel Prom that the church puts on for the older kids. I wish this was started when I was in High School. It provides a great time plus an extra event to where your formal attire to. Elyzabeth was excited and we are fortunate to have several hair dressers in our church ward. They volunteered to do the girls hair and makeup. The girls looked absolutely beautiful.
