Cakes... 2007

I was looking through pictures from the past year for another post, and decided I wanted to put pic's of cakes I've made all in one place... so here are the cakes from the past year. To start with in February: We had Rebekah who turned 16 and since she got her Drivers License that morning, I decided to do the Drivers License cake... It's not every day you can do that cake for someone... :-)

Next in March was Amanda's Birthday... we saw this yummy cake on the Take Home Chef t.v. show, and so I made that, it was Yummy! I think it had like a brownie bottom and white chocolate mouse type top with the Fresh strawberries. Then she just had this little cupcake tower for her birthday cake for her party, since she didn't really have a theme or anything.

On April 1st we had the Elders over for dinner. The kids wanted to do a big April Fools meal, so we looked on line and found some fun idea's and expanded on what we did a few years back to another set of missionaries. We told them since Liam's Birthday was in April we were celebrating it... We had Mini Hamburgers (nilla wafer buns covered with sesame seeds that stayed in place with a light spread of Apricot jelly. They were filled with peppermint pattie burgers, green coconut lettuce, and red and yellow icing for ketchup and mustard). The grilled cheese's were angle food slices grilled and orange icing/cheese. The little chicken pot pie's had vanilla pudding and dried apples for the chicken, and we made peas and carrots out of starburst candies. The nuggets, were actually banana's rolled in peanut butter then graham cracker crumbs. And for the cake... Meat Loaf iced with mashed potatoes and decorated with ketchup.

Then For Liam's actual birthday the end of April he got a cake with cars. He loved all the little cars that he got to keep off the top of it! Better than the actual cake!

Sariahs' birthday came next in May, and her favorite colors these days are yellow and purple so we did that, and then her cake for her birthday party was a sleepover cake for the occasion.

We have a break from birthdays over the summer and in Sept. Marissa wanted a make up/make over birthday party.

For Hannah's birthday in Dec

we went to this party place called Off the Walls.

Later in the month Sariah made me a yummy home made lemon cake with a lemon glaze. Liam got to it before we did so it's missing a piece. ;-) and then she made dad a cake for the big '40'.
