I had the great opportunity to make our dear friends, Sandra & Florian's son, Luca's first birthday cake. They held a christening in their backyard, on their newly re-modled deck. It was such a sweet way to bless this amazing blessing from God, with their Family from
switzerland, and friends. Sandra had his favorite bed time song playing as his godmother, Michelle gave him a Chinese blessing, and his Godfather, my husband Damon (gurti, in german) read an Irish Blessing. The family placed their hands on little Luca and prayed for him. All while Luca wanted to be passed between each person praying for him. It was very endearing. ~Let there be cake! We sang to him and he dug his face into his favorite chocolate cake with banana whipped cream center. In the shape of a ONE!
~Next Friend, Jason & Amanda's son, Jack turn one this month! They just had a small family gathering, but wanted a huge ONE cake as well! This one is chocolate with mint buttercream. I made his favorite things out of fondant on top of the cake: his push car that he sits in while being pushed to the park, a broom, basketball hoop, and his sand box. Happy Birthday Jack! xo
~Superbowl 2010~
We gathered over at Jason & Amanda home and I brought over these yumm Football sugar cookies & a flourless chocolate cake. Their home is so fun they have the adult room, and the kid's room all queued up to the game so the OHHHHH's are at the some moment. Some how I always end up staying in the kids room..LOL
Mary & Reuben are having a baby! they came over for dinner the other night along with; Steve, Alex, Harry & Max. Mary is due in May, and so very excited for her! She help me decorated the football cookies for the superbowl game.
~Well, I'll be back soon. I have Mary's baby shower that I am hosting with Jessica & Jill, and making the cake and goodies. After that is Jessica's son, Cade's first birthday and we know it will be a huge, amazingly, fabulous, birthday party!! xoxo
