Favorite Friend

This Morning I asked Munchkin who her favorite friend was. She looked a bit thoughtful and so I asked if Monkey-Monk was her favorite friend?
"No" she said. 
 "Oh is Adah your favorite friend?" 
 "No" 
So I asked "so who is you favorite friend?" 
 She sat thoughtfully for a few minutes then got really excited and pointed at me! 
"I'm your favorite friend?!" I asked
 "Yeah!" she yelled
and I teared up a little bit.

Daniel Cake

This year for Melissa's Birthday I had a hard time coming up with a way to decorate a Cheese Cake (she is not a fan of cake ) in a fun way with something she loves.  So I kept thinking what does Melissa Love? What does Melissa Love?  The answer....
Daniel :) 



 
It took some effort to make, I started with a photo of Daniel from their wedding, cropped it, changed it to black and white, upped the contrast, and still wasn't feeling like it was just what I wanted so my fabulously talented brother James did his magic and got it perfect.   Then my also very talented hubby cut it out for me with an Exacto knife, I baked the cheesecake, frosted it, and sifted cocoa powder on top through the stencil. It took some effort but I think it was worth it!  :)

Hungry Catipillar Cake

This year for Bethany's Birthday I made a Hungry Caterpillar Cake.  I made all the fondant décor myself :)  I was so excited with the way it turned out.























Money Oragami

Mommy asked me to help come up with ways to give money that were cute and creative.  after a lot of pausing rewinding and replaying on YouTube here is what we accomplished.
