Natalie's bday cake!

My great friend Nate (i should be a poet) celebrated her birthday this weekend with a killer partaaayyy. I baked her a cake for the occasion. My hubby helped out by making his signature little creature to take everyone's attention away from the actual cake. This time it was a bee, which I actually really liked. The little guy kinda grew on me. My inspiration was to try and make something super cute, that would match Nate's sunny (i know, i'm cheesy) personality, while still making it her favorite flavor: chocolate. So the cake is chocolate with a mocha meringue frosting. We haven't tasted it yet, so I hope it's good!

Mustache Madness

Bridal Expo

The Brideworld Expo 2009 was off the hook! Woot Woot! When I first got there, I didn't really know what to expect. But after seeing booth after booth of wedding related shinanigans, I got in the groove right away! I decided to set up a mock reception table in my booth. I was in a fabric store and came across a piece of fabric that was black and white, with a cute little yellow sparrow perched on a branch. That little guy became my inspiration for the display I made for the show. I would LOVE to do an entire wedding based on this display! It was really fun getting my creative juices flowing. We shared a booth with the fabulous ladies from Flower DIYvas, a workshop for DIY brides. Thanks girls for all of the help and fun! Here are some Do-It-Yourself pics!
