Welcome Baby Logan!

Today was a great day! We celebrated my nephew and his girlfriend's arrival of their little son! They chose a hunting theme and my niece asked me to make the cake and cupcakes. Amazon has awesome choices for sugar sheets with edible images on them. Pop them in the freezer for 15 seconds to 1 minute and apply them to the cake. So easy!

I colored the vanilla cake batter three different colors and plopped spoonfuls into baking pans. Swirled it slightly with a knife and baked them. This created a camouflage pattern on the inside. Grass tip added to the piping bag gave an edging of dark green grass around the top. It came out great! Cupcake pics with black deer head silhouettes on them adorned the chocolate cupcakes. Can't wait until the next shower!

Welcome Baby Logan! Auntie loves you!

Happy First Birthday Ainsleigh and Liam!

I cannot believe my littlest angel is a year old already! What a fun day we planned for her! We chose a "Somebunny Is Turning One" theme and since my nephew was turning a year two weeks later, we got his family in on the fun with a "Liam's Lumberjack Bash" birthday theme.

Woodsy accents, black bears, s'mores, lace, flowers, bunnies, and plaid combined to make an adorable themed party! Of course, Daddy had his birthday too and we needed an ice cream cake for him! 

I designed the invites and they came out fantastic! I love Power Point for this stuff- so much better than Word. Seriously, try it if you haven't. The formatting is so much easier!

The cakes were so much fun to make too. Liam had a log smash cake, Ainsleigh had a white frosted cake with pink and green flowers. Their main cakes were a white frosted cake with gold bunny ears and a huge peony on top, and a brown bear cake for the special boy.

Everything came out great! Pink plates with gold bunnies that I got on clearance after Easter from Micheal's and black and red plates, napkins and forks for our lumberjack.

Big sister donated moose and bears to the decorating and everyone had a great time.

Enjoy! Happy 1st Birthday Ainsleigh and Liam!
