6 Month Photos

I just want to take a minute to brag on a friend and to brag on my son ( who happens to be one of the cutest kids in the world!!) We decided to have his pictures on a day when it was cloudy, raining, and with a fussy baby! The odds were against us haha! But luckily we had chosen to use the amazing Pam Monaghan! She was able to get some absolutely amazing pictures of our family and I am extremely grateful! Please take a minute to look at the pictures and check out her blog!

Exciting Things To Come

I have some exciting news! My amazing friend Pam is allowing me to sell my baked goods at her booth in the Handmade Harvest Vintage Farm Fair! Long title I know haha! This is going to be an amazing opportunity to get my name out there and to show others what I can do! I'm keeping it pretty simple by only doing cupcakes, cake pops, and sugar cookies! Each item will be a dollar! I'm also going to make a mini scrap book of all the other cakes I've done with prices to set on the table! The Harvest is on September 29th! I'm going to be extremely busy that weekend because I have two more orders due! But what's a little stress if I have an opportunity like this! Thankfully my sister is going to come up and help so that will take some of the stress off!! And plus we always have so much fun when we work together! So if you're not busy that Saturday I would greatly appreciate some support!! Plus, Pam will be selling aprons, vests, hair bows, and other amazing items! She is extremely talented and very creative! 
Here is a tentative list of the items I'm going to sell

• Chocolate Cupcakes with Espresso Buttercream
• Chocolate Cupcakes with Cookies and Cream Buttercream
• Vanilla Cupcakes with Buttercream 
• Sugar Cookies with decorative Buttercream
• Cake pops (still unsure what kind)

Here is the flyer! Come see us!!

Not So Busy, Yet Busy :)

Well this past month has been extremely slow for cake decorating, but extremely busy in the life department! My crazy, amazing 6 month old is crawling everywhere, pulling up onto everything, and will not stay out of the dog food!! He keeps my super busy! I make his own so I feel like all I have time to bake these days are sweet potatoes! I'm itching to bake something amazing. The only down side to that is my husband is going out of town for a week, therefore I will be left alone in a house with baked goods! Never a good idea! Saturday is my family reunion so my plan is to bake something Friday night, that way I'm not tempted to eat the whole thing haha!!

On the bright side of baking, I did receive two orders this week! One is for a bridal shower. This one will be pretty simple. It's a twist on the rose cake I normally due. Instead of one rose on the side I will be doing three rows of roses. Each row becoming a darker shade of purple towards the bottom! I've actually been wanting to attempt one of these for awhile, so I'm excited for the chance! The second order is for a little girls first birthday party! I will be doing cupcakes and a smash cake! Details are still up in the air! Both orders are due at the end of September, one day apart! I will be a busy lady! The fun part about the Birthday order is it's actually a trade! The customer actually has a business of her own and we will be trading my baking for her crocheting! She is very talented and I'm excited to get Westyn a couple more hats made! If you go to www.facebook.com/ThreeLittleBearsCrochet you can check her out and maybe place an order!! It is almost Fall!!!!

Our house is coming along amazingly! I can't believe we will be moving into it in less than two months! My wonderful husband is setting me up a craft area in the garage, which I'm extremely excited about! I will finally have some space to work on the tons of ideas I have decorating our new home!!

I almost forgot! The amazing Pam Monaghan designed me some business cards! But of course I had to screw them up! She sent me two different proofs to look over and I still managed to get my phone number wrong! But luckily I can change the last number to the correct one without it looking extremely ghetto :)

I hope everyone is having a great day!
