The Morris Family

Here is a close up of the cakes.

This year we combined a few birthdays and had one huge party. We celebrated Wyatt and Dee's (Scott's stepmom) birthdays together. It was a surprise party for Dee and we used Wyatt's party to get her up to Georgetown for her party. She was totally shocked and Wyatt had a great time running around playing with friends and cousins. The cakes got lots of compliments that they looked beautiful and tasted great as well. One of Wyatt's gift, which was from Mommy and Daddy, was a fish tank. We set it up today so we can go buy fish on his actual birthday. The tank has a clam that fills with bubbles and then releases them, which is wyatt's favorite part. He has been standing on a stool most of the day just watching the tank. He is so excited.

A special thanks for all of the birthday gifts that Wyatt has received. You can see his enthusiasm for them all in the pictures. Thanks and we love ya all!

Happy Valentine's Day

Friday, March 4, 2011

I made a couple of these small cakes for Valentine's Day. I gave one to my family and the other to Rob and Elizabeth Bell. Rob was home for R&R in February so I had to make them something special.

These cakes are so cute and small. The offer a small cake for those who don't want a lot of cake but DO want something sweet.

Under the Sea Birthday Cupcake Tower!

I guess I am doing well at the cupcake towers, because this is my 3rd one and we have a wedding cupcake tower to do in April. I am very excited to be booked for 3 weddings this year.

This cupcake tower was for a little girl turning 8 years old and everything is edible on these cupcakes. Each topper was hand created and I think they turned out really well. When we delivered the cake the house was decorated so cute with sea animals hanging everywhere. They also had a giant disco ball hanging that was reflecting light so it looked like you were under water.

The good news is that they loved the cake and have put in 3 orders for other cakes in a few months. Will post the tower picture when I get it.

Snow Day!

The boys tried to see what they could make out of the snow we received in February. Unfortunately, it wasn't wet enough. It was just powder. They were kind of disappointed. Zachary is hoping next year's will allow him to make a snowman.

Baby Shower Cupcake Tower

Here are a few photos of the Baby Shower cupcake tower we did in January. It was a lot of fun and I got some more practice at making animals.

Breakfast dessert tacos!

Scott has a friday morning networking group that meets for breakfast tacos. For a holiday present we made breakfast dessert tacos. They were a hit!

Zach's First Sleepover

On the last day of school for Christmas break, Zach had his first sleepover. We are very fortunate to have great next door neighbors. Cole is one of the kids that live next door and it's so nice having someone Zach can play with. We take turns carpooling the kids to school. I usually take the kids to school and then Cole's mom picks them up. It works out great. This picture was taken at Cole's house of their first sleepover. They had fun playing video games, eating snacks and watching movies.

Family Christmas Photo

I thought I would post this so everyone can see the true spirits of the Morris family. Between Wyatt and Zachary, we are kept in stitches or headaches. When one is happy the other is mad and screaming about it. We have seen a few glimpses of them getting along and sharing recently. I am praying that Wyatt is coming out of the terrible two's~!
