I decided that this year for everyone's birthday I am going to put my cake decorating class to use. Mike said he wanted an ICE CREAM cake. I can't blame him, but I was a little nervous. The trickiest part was figuring out how to get the cake out of the pan so I could frost it with whipped cream and decorate it. Over all it turned out OK. I really need to work on writing with frosting (the Happy Birthday Mike looks RIDICULOUS) and the "rope" border could of been better but that's alright with me. The sad part.....Mike didn't even feel well enough to eat any :( Poor Kid, sick on his birthday.
Before we had cake we went to eat at this Mexican Restaurant in Marshfield. Wes LOVES chips and evidently he likes salsa even more. He started dipping the chip in the salsa all by himself and would just suck the salsa off and then dip the chip again(we gave him his own bowl). After a while I think it got to be too much for him (his eyes started watering) and we had to be responsible parents and take it away.
Last but not least is JO! She works in the gift shop at the Crowne Plaza in Hilton Head and Wes and I would go on a walk everyday to go see her. Wes would walk in and say "HIJO" and she just thought that was the cutest thing. As much as we love being home, we sure miss our daily walks to see JO :(

Your cakes are AWESOME! I was EXTREMELY impressed with the fondant job you posted earlier. How the heck did you do that??? You definitely have skillz... I usually feel proud of myself just for doing layers!

what a cute background! I like that Wesley liked his salsa. We gave some to Lily and she said, "Mommy, gross." lol
His own bowl??!! Why? :) He must be related to his Uncle Mike, they can have a chip dipping party. And I like your cake, I think it looks good.
I bet Jo REALLY misses your daily walks to visit her. The cake turned out cute. You are so talented!
