Sunday

Yesterday after our stake conference we went to Cameron's parents house to have a birthday dinner for Rob, my sister-in-law's birthday. We kinda forgot to get him something, since we'd been pretty busy with other family activities. So I decided we'd make him a cake, just a small one just for him and his wife. I thought it turned out great what with the time I had to make it. I didn't even have an idea of how I was going to decorate, but I just went for it. I hope he liked it and Happy Birthday again ROB!

... and then on our way home we saw the hill in beaumont/ Yucaipa burning like crazy, it was a pretty scary sight in the dark! But this is the only ok picture we got of it, and it's still going :(

I can rest this week

This is what kept me busy last week! Lots of work, but I was satisfied with the result. thanks to those who wanted a cake from me, thanks for trusting my amateur cakes:)

I was literally up and about all last week, from 6 30 in the morning to 9 pm non-stop. Cameron even ditched me a bunch of times, 'cause all I was doing was baking and making frosting, and decorating.... etc.

Elide's Cake

Very huge cake, Cameron and I think it probably weighted about 75 pounds. Sheesh!

Sewing

For those of you who don't know, I don't sew too much. All I've done is a quilt for Cameron when he went on his mission, which came out really great for my first sewing project ever, and we still use it a whole lot. Ane a few months ago I attempted to make a dress, which didn't turn out and I told myself that that would be my last sewing experience ever!

I was looking through a bunch of stuff to throw out or take to the DI, and almost all my purses ended up in the DI pile which meant that I needed a new purse. I went to JoAnn's yesterday and bought some cute fabric for a purse! So this morning I got up to start my purse. I thought it was going to take a long time, but I finished it pretty quick and it turn out cute for being a not-a-lot-of-experienced-sewer.I'm very pleased with the how it turned out, I even made pockets on the insides toward the top so that when I put my stuff in it won't look saggy.

I got so excited when I looked at the finished product that I fixed a few shirts and some shorts!

It was a successful sewing day for me!!!

Cake Month

We just took a trip to Winco to purchase cake stuff for this month's cakes. Yes.. cakes with an "S" I have 4 cakes to make just for this month. We bought so much cake stuff I had to buy a few totes to store it all in because it sure wouldn't fit in my tiny kitchen. I'm very excited for the business I'm making :) but then again very nervous.

I got new pans too.. YAY!
