Baby Shower

This past Saturday, we had a baby shower for my oldest daughter, Stephanie. It wasn't a surprise shower because Stephi does not like surprises. She has always been one of those kids who wants to know everything in advance! The suspense of a surprise just kills her! This is a picture of my two girls, Steph has the darker hair and Ashley is the blonde.

She is decorating Ayden's room in a safari theme because she loves Zebras! Of course, I made her a zebra cake for the shower.

Just 8 more weeks until my first grandson is expected to make his appearance! I can't wait!!

Red & White Snowball Challenge

Allyson at and Nicole at have come up with a way to use up red & white scraps that we all have hanging around!!! This is going to be a great quilt!!

Birthdays!

I thought I would share with you a little bit of what I've done the last couple of days. My oldest son, Shaw, turned 24 on the 22nd. Since his favorite candy is Reese's Peanut Butter Cups, I made him a chocolate cake with peanut butter icing.


















And, my youngest daughter Ashley, turns 16 today. She wanted a vanilla cake and decorated in the Rastafarian colors of red, yellow and green.

















Two days it took me to make and decorate the cakes. I'm just tired now!!
