Cake Business?

I'm pretty excited to announce that I was offered money for a cake for the first time this week! One of Melinda's co-workers saw the cake I made for her birthday last week (we attempted a Louis Vuitton purse-shaped cake) and wanted one for her sister. I was really nervous because I don't want someone to give me money for something they end up not liking, but it turned out great and she loved it, or so I hear. I'm hoping this will mean that more people will be interested because aside from being something I love to do, wouldn't it be nice to make a little money? The woman wanted the same exact purse we made Melinda, just with cherries added to it, so I tried my best (with the help of my AMAZING husband), and this is what was produced.

Skateboarding with Uncle Anthony

For Christmas we got Anthony's (and now my) niece, Hailey, a skateboard because she would always see Anthony's and want her own and we've been told that we spoil her so why not? The only rule from Mom was that she have all the protective gear imaginable and can only ride with either myself or Anthony, which we agreed with. Every once in a while they go out for rides, and the other day they were riding together and I couldn't help but take pictures because they just looked so cute--Anthony and his girly but tomboyish niece, riding off into the sunset. By the way, she's getting pretty good on that thing!

Entering the World of Blogging

So I've decided to enter the wonderful world of blogging! I figured that with a little bit of extra time during the day this might be a fun way to showcase the things Anthony and I do on a daily basis, which may or may not be very interesting! Things are going really well at the shop and in our lives as newlyweds, and I'm thankful that we are able to tolerate working together during the day and still wanting to be around each other afterward. We're enjoying being married and spending as much time as we can with our furry son Duke. Enjoy!
