Playing with Pics!

I have been so busy these last few weeks I haven't had much time to be creative. Today I was craving some way to create! So I got out my camera and sapped these shots of our morning.
Simple but So Fun!


Chelsey & Canyon


The boys have been getting themselves dressed. I love the tonka shirt on backwards!
There is only one stool in the bathroom. They have been fighting over it for days. Today Troy talked them into sharing it! It worked out great.



Footsies!

2 more CAKES

This week was very busy and so these cakes were more a labor of Love than a creative outlet. However when it's all said and done I can't help but smile and feel good when I see what I have created.
 Even though they are never perfect it is satisfying to try.
Or maybe it's satisfying cause I make them for people I love.

Under the Sea Cake
This was Jaxon's and Rustin's Birthday Cake.
It was and oreo cake with chocolate and blue layers inside with  oreo's in between.
 I tried a few new things with this cake
1- I used marshmallow fondant for some of it. it looks smoother and tastes great.
2-I gave it a shiny with a mister bottle.
3- I made white modeling chocolate and painting it with food coloring dust to make the turtle. This was easy to make hard to model but really a fun challenge!

All Edible and so CUTE I thought.



American/Norwegian Flag Cake
This is a french vanilla and German chocolate cake with Dark chocolate ganash in between.
Covered with marshmallow fondant this was a very sophisticated cake. DELICIOUS!
It took a lot of precise cutting and still it came out looking a little crooked. They liked it anyway.
I made it for my Sister & Brother in Law who are moving to Norway.
 This was a farewell cake in their honor.
