My daughter makes cakes.

My younger daughter, Kelly, has been making decorated cakes for some time now. She doesn't do it for a living or anything. As a matter of fact, she does not do it for money at all. She does not even want compensated for them. She doesn't think her cakes are good enough to accept money for them. I, myself, thinks she does an excellent job. Of course, I am not partial or anything.


Here are a few pictures of some of the cakes she has done over the years. Mostly, she does them for family and friends. They are all done with buttercream frosting. She hasn't got the nerve to try fondant yet. She did use some fondant on the cake with the butterflies because she couldn't think of any other way to make them.

This is a cake done for a couple of girls. It is their school mascot. She drew this on the cake freehand with icing using the refrigerator magnet pictured behind the cake as a pattern.

These were groom's cakes for my niece's wedding. Her new hubbie is a football and baseball coach in the school where he teaches.

My grandson's birthday cake. This is the cake that inspired my niece to have the sports oriented groom's cakes at the wedding.

My daughter did these two cakes for her friend's daughter's 14th birthday. It is her cell phone complete with edible picture and her ipod. By the way, that is the same picture she has on her phone as a background.

The butterflies and flowers are made of fondant.

The cow, pig and lamb were cupcakes that went with the barn cake. When Kelly took a picture of them they were in a carrier so the picture has a reflection of the flash. Also, the cover was exactly clear either.

That is all the pictures I have at the moment.

Have a nice day.

Take care.

Pictures of the grandbabies.

It has been so long since I posted. I thought I should at least post some picks of my darling grandbabies. They are getting so big. It seems like yesterday when they were born.


Josh is in kindergarten this year. Last night they had a program at school. It was a "Moosical" about Old McDonalds farm. Josh played a farmer. Some of the kids were animals. It was so cute. Josh really got into the singing and hand gestures that went along with it. That is him, third from the left, bottom row. He is the one in the plaid shirt with glasses.

I can't believe he is already in school.

Miss Olivia is 21 months old now. She will turn 2 in July. She is talking a blue streak, if you can understand her language. My daughter calls her language, Livvonese. Every once in a while she says a word or phrase that is recognizable. She just jabbers. It makes me smile.

She just loves Kollin. She calls him KaKa.

She is very inquisitive too.

Josh loves this puzzle and he is learning more about the states and capitals every time he puts it together.

Little Kollin didn't escape the eye problem. He got his little glasses a couple weeks ago at the ripe old age of 8 months old. He looks so cute in them.

He is really starting to get mobile. A week ago he was scooching forward a little on his belly. This week, he is going great guns and takes no time to get where he wants to go. He isn't quite up on his hands and knees but it is close. He is doing what I call the army crawl when they go under fences in the obstacle course. And he is fast!!!

So there is a little update on my grandbabies. See how they have grown.

Take care everyone.
