It wasn't me! It was the one armed man!

For Labor Day weekend we went to St. George to play. My first ever attempt at driving a quad-bike... I failed. Dumping myself and husband off and breaking my elbow. 

This is not long after the fall:


Then to InstaCare:


And this is how I spent September, October, and most of November:

Eureka! This year, Christmas will be - OURS!

My Nephew's name is Jack. His older sister loves The Nightmare Before Christmas. Needless to say a lot of what little Jack has is related to Jack Skellington.
When his birthday came around there was no question that his first birthday cake was going to be Nightmare Before Christmas. Since this is also one of my favorite movies I had so much fun making this cake. It was a lot of work for a smash cake, but it turned out awesome.

oh, and we can't forget the cupcakes. Those were fun to make too.



and here is the lucky boy who got to eat it...



finally, here is a nice 360 view of the cake.

Motocross Groom's Cake

Last August was a crazy busy cake month. Three Cakes in one month really felt like A LOT. I guess that's why I broke my elbow in September, just so I could have a break.

This cake was made for the younger sister of one of our best friends. Her husband loves Motocross and German Chocolate Cake... This is what I came up with.
