Move Over Ace of Cakes!

Randall and I have been having so much fun creating cakes for every occasion. Over the weeekend we made two. The first was a Killian's Irish Red Beer Keg for my buddy Jason's birthday. I didn't even know where to begin considering I've never seen a real live keg, but google has pictures of everything. We were really happy with the outcome!



Next, Randall wanted to make a purse cake for his co-worker, Gloria. He had a design in mind and we got to work late Sunday night. I worked on the cake while he worked on the details. The finished product was beautiful. Randall did all of the intricate detail work and he did amazing! Hope you agree!

The Traveling Trio

Over the past couple of weeks we've taken a few trips and I'm just barely getting around to blogging. We first started off with a road trip to St. George for Randall's cousins' wedding. Tytan was such a good boy and the wedding was beautiful. Here are a few pics:

The Happy Couple!

Our lil' fam at the Beautiful St. George Temple


Daddy let Tytan drive for a minute during a major delay on the way home. He was a pro!

Then the time quickly came for my boss to take us on our annual trip for making last years goals. This trip was to an all-inclusive resort in Cozumel, Mexico! We had a great time! Tytan was such a good boy on the long flights and the lay overs. What a blessing it is to have such a sweet baby. Here are a few pics from the trip ('a few' is a gross understatement!):

This was Tytan's very first time on an airplane. He loved looking out the window. . .

The first thing I wanted Tytan to experience was the beach. He was so tired, but he was a good sport so mommy could get some pictures of him playing in the sand.

We ventured into town one night for some 'real' food (namely tacos) and had a good time hanging with Polly and her hubby Brandon. Unfortunately, I think the cat meat, aka beef tacos gave me a nasty parasite. Oh well, weight loss here I come!

I'm not sure who enjoyed the Kiddy Pirate Pool more, Tytan or Daddy! Randall must have taken Tytan down that slide 1000 times. He is such a good daddy and they had a blast together!

Wayne took us on a snorkeling trip by catamaran. The reef was beautiful and we saw sea turtles, flying fish, barracuda, and so much more. To top it off, the outing ended with a beautiful sunset.

This is Tytan napping in the pool. He loved his lil floaty and would get so relaxed he'd dose right off to sleep!





Tytan was sad to end his vacation. As we departed from Cozumel he stared out the window wishing we could stay forever. Thanks again Wayne for the awesome vacation!

Lake Trip and Mother's Day!

We had a fun weekend with so much going on. We started off with a trip to the lake on Saturday. I hadn't been wakeboarding in almost 2 years and I was dying to go! It was also Tytan's first trip to the lake. He had a great time hanging out with Nana and Papa and he even got to drive Papa's boat! The only thing missing. . .? Daddy! Randall had to work so he couldn't make it, but we sure did miss him!

So Randall decided to enroll me in a cake decorating class for Mother's Day. I was so excited! What a great gift! And the best part. . .he's taking the class with me! He's going to be my cake decorating partner. So, on Saturday night Randall and I were up way late working on a few special occasion cakes! I did a Tinkerbell Cake for my Niece Jadyn's birthday. I was happy with the outcome and Randall and I enjoyed working on it together (although we did have a few stressful moments!).


Randall wanted to do a Mother's Day cake for all the women in his family and he did a great job! I am so proud of him! He came up with the design for the cake and executed it with ease.



We also celebrated Kristin's birthday last week, so I made up a quick cake (nothing exciting) for her birthday. I thought I'd post a few pics:
