isaac was a ring bearer last night in the wedding of my friends and fellow youth group leaders, adam and leah. leah also did a bit of babysitting for isaac in my tutoring days, so she’s one of his favorite people on the planet. anyhow, i captured approximately one good shot of the cute boy […]

charlotte’s owls
made these for charlotte’s first birthday. her mom and i were pregnant together and in the same life group, so charlotte and anna go way way back… charlotte had a special polkadot owl: up close. isaac had to give his stamp of approval. happy little cupcakes awaiting being eaten.
apron mania
while i finished up isaac’s quilt, my friend bridgette waited patiently to begin our next craft project… making aprons for addison and anna. while i was at it, i decided to make one for my sister’s baby’s 2nd birthday… we invented our own patterns and pretty much were winging it the entire way. here are […]
woody and buzz cake
when parker was born, his mom immediately locked me in for his first birthday cake. unfortunately (not really), shortly after his birth, i discovered i was pregnant with the annababy. and she was born a few days before he turned one. so i had to pass on his first birthday cake. but, i made a […]

robot cake pops
for the birthday celebration of a good pal, i decided to make some cake pops. as always, my trusty cake pop associate, bridgette helped out. and we knocked these guys out pretty quickly. as it usually goes, no one really ate them at the party, so lots of moms got to take some home to […]
warm days
we’ve been getting quite a few warm days here lately. and we’ve been taking advantage, getting outside as much as we can. for walks, to the park, or even just sitting in the hard, crunchy, mostly dormant grass in the front yard.
cupcake cake pops
so, some pals and i are throwing a baby shower for our other pal jessica. somehow, bridgette and i got the bright idea to try to make cake pops for the event. they’re like truffles on a stick. only the inside of the truffle is mashed up cake and frosting and the outside looks prettier […]
