Weekend Goodness: Cake Edition


I had to go to Target yesterday to get some school things, but of course I had to check out what was happening in the holiday aisles :) Ornaments make me happy. Elf on the shelf creeps me out. 

Dan came back from hunting (since Wednesday) on Saturday afternoon. We went to the mall to get the suit he's wearing for his brother's wedding and then went to his mom's house for his brother's birthday dinner. And of course we spent some time with the most adorable little girls in the world :)


Sunday was cake day!
Dan's mom, one of his sisters, and I each are making a cake for Pat and Emily's wedding.

My sous chef in action. 

2 of the 3 tiers cooling in our second bedroom (I ran out of counter space). 

The butter cream calls for a lot of butter.

A pastry layer. 
I'm going to assemble to cake tomorrow and then freeze it until wedding time (which is in two weeks!). It was really hard not eating all of the layers as I made them. . . of course I tasted little bits to make sure they turned out okay ;)


Hopefully this week is a little less chaotic and happier than last week. I got an update from the mom of my 4ker who got shot- she's doing better and better each day! They are going to start waking her in up in the next couple of days. The nurses say she is progressing wonderfully!
