Chris's Birthday Cake

Tomorrow is Chris's 27th birthday, so it was a good excuse for me to make a cake. It was my first time trying to do a chocolate bow which came out alright, but I think I will do better next time. It looks best from far away. Inside is Chris's favorite poppyseed cake and then I made three different layers of flavored italian meringue buttercreams: vanilla, lemon curd and raspberry. Yum! Can't wait to try this cake tomorrow. I hope Chris likes it.

Built-in Project update

The built-in cabinets are really coming along. Look at the cool pull-out drawers. There are more drawers completed now, but just haven't gotten over to Don and Barb's to take a picture of it yet. Really is looking good and can't wait for it to be completed. The pull-outs are to put the electronic equipment on so the wiring will be easier.

Superbowl Sunday

Here are some pictures of Jackson (my little brother) and Jordyn (our niece) while they were visiting our house this afternoon for the game. Gotta love the way she poses for the camera with her hand on her chin. She is just so cute!
