Scooby Doo Birthday Cake

Hello Kitty Cake Pops

Back to Blogging!

I've been away from the blog for a while...but I have a few good reasons!  We've been visiting family for Thanksgiving and celebrating my hubby's promotion at his favorite place on earth, Disney World! But I have missed blogging and am excited to get caught up.  I could post pages and pages of pictures from the past few weeks, but I've tried to just post my favorites!

Allow me a moment to brag on my husband.  He works incredibly hard for us.  There are times when I don't understand how he does it and balances our home life, but he does.  I am a blessed girl to have him and am so proud that he was recognized at work.  This is a picture from the night we found out he made partner.  A huge blessing and answer to lots of prayers!

We spent Thanksgiving with my family before driving the rest of the way to Disney.  This is my favorite picture from that day.  My mom and grandmother are wonderful role models of what strong, Christian women should be and I cherish these moments together.

Bennett's Aubie 2nd Birthday

I can't believe my nephew Bennett is turning two!  He is full of laughter and energy and I love him to bits.  We had so much fun last weekend celebrating in Auburn. I drove down the night before and worked on the cake with my sister and mom.  We are all extremely close, so it's tough not living in the same town. Moments like these are cherished!   

Finally, an Auburn cake!  I've been wanting to do one of these since I started this hobby!

Pumpkin Patch 1st Birthday

I love this cake!  My favorite part of this hobby is the fondant detail work and this one has a lot of it!  My friend's beautiful little girl Kate turned one a few weeks ago and this pumpkin patch cake was perfect for the season.  We also did pumpkin cake pops and a sweet little smash cake. 

Easy Pumpkin Spice Cake Recipe

Our house smells amazing right now and it's all because of this easy recipe! You can use this pumpkin spice cake to make cakes, cupcakes, or even cake pops!  My personal favorite is to use it for cupcakes and top it with cinnamon cream cheese icing.  It's perfect to take to a Fall or Thanksgiving party!

1 box Spice Cake mix
1 cup canned pumpkin
3 eggs
1/3 cup oil
1 1/3 cup water

Mix and bake at 350 degrees for 20 minutes.  Enjoy!
