The current status of our house

Here, we are all bricked, just waiting for the rock. Where you see wood, we will be putting rock. I hope it all looks good! I am really liking everything so far.

Birthday Cakes

Every year at this time, we have a pluthera of birthday cakes. Jeff, Molly, Gabe, and Kate all have their birthdays within 5 weeks of each other. Here are the cakes that I made for the kiddos. Jeff never gets a cake for his birthday, poor guy, because none of us can stand the sight of a cake by the time we get to his birthday. I am thinking about buying an ice cream cake for him this year. That would be super yummy!! None of the cakes turned out the way I would have liked, but they all tasted pretty good. This cake above, I made for Kate's birthday. There was so much candy on it!! It was any kid's dream!!

This cake we made for a party we had with Jeff's family. Kate is a huge fan of Mickey.

These cupcakes we had for a little party we had for Molly and Gabe.

This was what Gabe wanted for his birthday cake. It is my best at trying to duplicate Grave Digger, Gabe's favorite monster truck.

Molly wanted a princess cake for her birthday. This was the best I could do. I used a snowball for the princess's skirt and then put the body of a princess down in. Molly loved it, but you can tell that I was running out of steam towards the end of the cakemaking.
