This is what my weekend looks like

So, today we meet with a wedding planner who wants to see a cake dummy (a decorated styrofoam cake) and also do some cake testing.  So I decorated this cake and hope that it is a design that they are interested in.  If it goes well, we could be providing most of the wedding cakes for this event planner... which would be great.

People ask what I'm up to, and this is literally what I have been up to all weekend.  My life has been consumed (this particular cake is a pretty time consuming one).  Wish us luck!

Travis for Treasurer!

I thought this was the best promotion for someone running for office. Well done Travis. And good luck with the campaign!

Check out the campaign video here:

Nothing happened... Trust me.

So, Tim & Irene's youngest daughter, Meriel, toddled in with a mysterious white powder substance all over her... but the most entertaining part was that she assumed that if she pretended that there wasn't white all over her, then we wouldn't realize it either (which means we wouldn't sleuth out what she had been up to).  Unfortunately for her, this mess did not go by unnoticed.  Its hard to ignore a whole room of the house being doused in powder; carpet, furniture, walls, everywhere.  Needless to say, Mitchell is now without baby powder and Irene is still trying to decide if she is on speaking terms with her fun but mischievous daughter.

Obviously, this picture is pre-punishment.

This one goes out to Mom

A little entertainment for my Mom while she is stuck at the Dallas Airport. But anyone who flies should appreciate it.

So, why are we hiding these???????

Well, the Easter Bunny came to visit, and though Finn was pretty confused as to why we were hiding perfectly edible eggs (which he loves to eat), he enjoyed the frenzied game of finding them. He sniffed out his own little Easter Egg. Hope everyone had fun last week!

Cake Crazy

So, we are getting started with a little cake business, with absolutely no idea how this is going to work out. But we feel so official with a business license and a website. Special thanks to Travis and Brittany for doing the logo! It pays to have creative family members!

If anyone wants to see our business website and pictures of cakes, etc., you can go to www.cloviscrumbs.blogspot.com.

Spring Break!

We went up with Tim and Irene's family last weekend to Wonder Valley (which is where Caleb proposed to me).  The weather was beautiful and we had a blast.  Finn is fond of eating rocks, so if we weren't being vigilant we would find stones rolling around in his mouth.

Here are some pictures of the bigger sized boys trying to throw rocks that are probably too big for them to be throwing.
