Cody's Christening Cake

 I was thrilled when Charlene, Cody's mom asked me to make this Christening cake.  Our daughters have danced together for years.  We all got to see little Cody's progress in utero during the entire dance season.  Little guy was considerate enough to make his entrance into the world the day after our very last recital of the year! 

Anywho, little Cody, welcome to the world!  You have a wonderful family who loves you dearly.  Now be a good little boy and sleep through the night so momma can have the energy to play with you all day!  :)

Donut Cake

 My beautiful Lexi loves to offer my services for just about every celebration she has.  One of her favorite co-workers from, Dunkin Donuts, was moving on and my girl wanted to mark the occasion with a Donut Cake. 

She said the co-worker loved it! And my Lovely Lexi was the star of the day for providing the farewell cake.

Anywho, I don't mind making the cakes my girl often requests, however it wouldn't kill ya to slap a few bucks to momma for the supplies!!  Just sayin'   :)

Coffee Cup Cake

 It was Cousin Ricky's first birthday since we lost my aunt, his mom, Auntie Rosie.  She was the sweetest person in the whole world!  Gone way too young and suffered for 10+ years.

Anywho, we had a lovely Sunday cookout with alcohol a'plenty.  This dark chocolate cake with mocha filling was the perfect ending to the day,
Cousin Ricky said he had no idea the cookout was going to be a celebration of his 44th birthday.  (I think he fibbed a bit)  It turned out to be a great day for Ricky and the rest of the clan, too.

Cousin Ricky, a bit of advice from someone who has been there..........I miss my dad everyday.  It never gets easier, we just learn to live with it.  We all miss her.  I know she is with my dad and he is making her laugh.  And I believe she is proud of the great guy you are.  Now, spread the wealth around a little, would ya?  :)
