This cake turned out just adorable. I love the colors and of course the detailing!

My sweet aunt Jeanette turned 60 this year!!! And her amazing husband & daughter planned a big surprise bash! Jeanette's family from Kansas made the long journey to Nocona, TX to surprise her! It was so fun. Shawna, Jeanette's daughter, had everyone email her a few words that described Jeanette so that she could make a art piece for her birthday present. So in the same spirit we decorated the cake in the same words! I love how it turned out..................except in the process of cutting out each little letter I lost some brain power and misspelled one of the words ;) But I'll let y'all hunt for which word was misspelled!

Have I told y'all that I have 6 nieces and nephews (with one on the way I might add)! And have I told you that all their birthdays fall between the months of July-September :) So as you can imagine I am a busy Aunt during the summer months! This year we did a very causal birthday party over lunch celebrating Combs & Southard cousins and so naturally I did a cake for each of them with something that they love!

This was a fun cake to work on! The party boy was turning 70 years old - what a thing to celebrate! The birthday boy grew up in New York but has spent the last 30 years in Texas so they wanted a birthday cake to represent the two states! Half the cake was decorated in New York themed items complete with the NY skyline and then the other half was decorated in TX themed items with the Dallas skyline!

I had the pleasure of working with the Walden family again on one of their grandson's 1st birthday cakes! I think there about as many grand kids in their family as in mine! Oliver was having a train themed party so I decorated the cake to match the invites. I am so pleased with how it turned out!

I really enjoy doing cupcakes, especially when they turn out this cute :)

I LOVE working on cakes for my sweet, sweet friend Casey...........she is hilarious! Last year I made a bustier cake for her momma and this year she asked me to make a cake for her sister's 50th birthday. But as you can tell from the cake she did not want to disclose her sister's age. haha. I hope her sister liked it!

I can't believe one of my brides celebrated her one-year anniversary in June..............time sure does fly! Time does fly because I realized I had not updated my blog in 3 months. Sheesh. And I've done a few cakes from then to now. Haha.
