Perfect Fall Day

Fall... It was so nice the other day so I decided to go out with the pets and enjoy some sun. They were being so silly that I decided to take a few pictures.

Why can't there be more of these days...

Cakes I have made recently

CAKE ANYONE?

This cake above was made for my friend Heather's little boy Chips 2nd birthday. I was very happy with how it turned out. She picked out the colors so I tried to match it the best I could to her other decorations. Anyways I thought it turned out super cute! I was surprised how good the bow on top turned out since it was the first that I have ever made.

This sweet little cupcake was made for a little ladies first birthday. I wish I would have been there to see her darling little hands dig into it.

This cake was made for my friend Laurens Baby shower.

I have loved learning different things about making cakes these last few months. It has become quite the hobby! I honestly look forward to baking anything and am constantly looking for an excuse to make a cake. I think I am starting to get some pretty good muscles from making my fondant and rolling it out. Sometimes it takes forever to get it just the right color. But I LOVE it... I have always wanted to start making decorative cakes, but finally I am doing something about it. I have so many cakes I want to make still so look for more to come! Actually maybe I will start a new blog so I don't have to bore everyone with my new found love :)

Camping Trip- Mirror Lake

The word that best describes camping this year was COLD. We seriously froze the whole time we were up at Mirror Lake. When we first got to our camping spot there was snow on the ground. Our camping spot was beautiful cause we were right next to the lake but it was almost to cold to enjoy! We all had as many layers on that we could possibly fit. So if we look a little fat that is why.

Even though it was freezing Chris still got plenty of fly fishing done with my Dad. And we still found time to take our raft out onto the lake. We had to be Very careful to make sure that no water got into the raft. Cause I didn't want my thermals to get wet!

This was the second night. We were out making dinner. We spent the day outside for the most part but after dinner we played cards in the heated trailer. And drank hot chocolate. We had all of my favorite camping food. We cooked in the dutch oven both nights.


It was a very fun trip... But I think we were all ready to go home. Who would have thought that camping in Aug. would be so cold!
