The cake....I tried homemade fondant this time so it would taste good.....and it DID!







Chicken salad croissants, layered green salad, and chinese chicken salad




These lamb cupcakes turned out SOOOO cute!! I love them!!






Finally got the cake pops to cooperate, keeping it simple really helped




Denise and I



I have had so much fun planning and executing my SIL Denise's baby shower. I love doing fun ideas I see on other sites and all that, but I never have the time to to try stuff for no reason just to practice, so when I get a chance I usually go a little overboard. It was hard work but WAY too much fun!! Thanks to everyone who came, it was a nice turnout especially for a holiday weekend, and thanks to Dianne and Nancy who were great help!

Next weeks projects: Miss Poppy's LLC is numero UNO priority and painting baby Logan's nursery. I will be attempting large vertical stripes. EEK!

Oh my goodness! I LOVE the cake! You are amazing. Can I take lessons too from you? And the Lamb cupcakes, too cute as well. Very impressed Janel!

Best tip I can give you on the stripes you are painting (we did Adysens room a while back) is to caulk the edge of the tape so nothing bleeds through. Adysens turned out way cute, thanks to my awesome hubby of course..hehe

Love your hair too btw..you look gorgeous!
