Things have been a little crazy around my house lately! Last weekend was my baby's baptism and this weekend will be my son's 4th birthday party! I lost two days of running errands because we had a hurricane come really close to us, but everything turned out to be okay. My nephew had his birthday party on the 19th. It was on a ship that you can play laser tag on. When asked to make cookies for favors, I had no idea what to do... then I finally decided on a vest and gun. I used my airbrush for the first time on this order also. I did some silver with a little black to make it look "rustic". I thought they turned out pretty good being it was my first time to ever use an airbrush!

 

 

 

Here is my adorable baby girl with one of the cookies at the party

 

 

 

This past Sunday, we were lucky enough to have a baptism for that little angel in the above photo. I wanted to make her cake (not sure what made me decide that since I have never made a cake before). I was pleased with the way it turned out, just not overly pleased. My icing roses were sliding off, but it was still edible!

The top layer is all cookies!

 

Here are the cookies I came up with for her baptism.

 

And I had to do a special one to thank our priest for doing the baptism for us!

 

This weekend will be spent working on the magician cookies for my son's party! Check back next week to see those cookies!

It's good to be back

It feels good to be able to do some cookies again! Since I have been "back" I have made two sets. I made these for a little girls 10th birthday. They were made to match her cake. Cell phones with "text lingo" were also specifically requested. They were my first set of cookies since around February.

This past week I worked on cookies for a Emma's first birthday. She loves Minnie mouse so that is what her theme was. Emma expected lots of guest, so I made lots of cookies for her. I wanted to make sure everyone was able to enjoy them!

Happy Birthday Emma! Hope your day was wonderful!!

Been MIA

Sorry I have been gone for so long. A lot has happened and I had to stop making cookies around February due to my pregnancy but our little bundle of joy has arrived and we couldn't be happier!

Big brother is in LOVE!

I am going to be doing cookies again, but it will be very limited. I want to be able to spend time with my children and not get overwhelmed.

I would like to thank all my fans that have stood by during the pregnancy and were so understanding!! I think I have the best fans around!
