Much needed pictures!

I finally stole Brads camera!!!!!! Some of these are old, but at least I have them! Don't mind this kinda ugly pic!!! haha This is us at the lake on the 4Th of July!!!! haha It was so much fun!! I never can get enough of the lake.

I got Brad tickets to the Toby Keith concert for his birthday. This is us on the way to the concert. I love this picture.

Trace Adkins opened for Toby. It was such a good concert, although a lot of old people there....weird! We had pretty awesome seats. But look how big Toby and Trace are!! Especially Trace...dang!

Brad's freaking adorable/totally cute nephew Taegen.

Memorial weekend, we went up to their cabin to relax in the freezing cold weather! And so Brad could bow hunt. haha it's bow season! Ross (Brad's dad) loves grilling and he spent most of the day cooking us delicious food!

Awe!!

I got to go scope out some elk with the guys. I was so excited to go, then we hike freaking 10 miles and then waited and waited and waited for elk to come. It was exciting to see them when we did, but so boring in the process of seeing them! I kept saying....is that it? is it time to go back? haha they kept saying NO!! When we first saw one I said "look! there's one!!" haha whoops! I'm not very good at being a hunter, cause you're supposed to be quite.... I think I like it better staying at the cabin cooking. hehe :)

All of us!

I promise I will blog more! Brad surprised me with Brad Paisley tickets :) so stay tuned!

I suck at blogging!!!

I suck at blogging!!! Actually all I do is work anymore....Monday through Thursday, I work at the dental office, and Friday, and Saturday, I work with April doing cakes! I love both my jobs. I need to be better at taking pictures I know!!!! But I blame Brad!! He has all our pictures and keeps forgetting to e-mail me them! But a couple weeks ago, April went to Europe for a week and asked me to take over some cakes for her. I delivered one, added one tier to another, and did this one from scratch! So I'm posting it to my blog! haha If you saw this cake in person, it was so bright!!!!! The pink was like florescent! It was a super fun cake for a little girl!

Anyway, I know I need to blog more, but no one leaves comments!!! :) Don't worry, I'll make Brad send me pics and blog more soon!!

P.S. Thanks Brandis for rolling balls for the cake and keeping me company and sane on my super stressful weekend! You rock! :)

CHECK OUT....

MY NEW RIDE!!!!

2010 MAZDA 3

So I finally convinced my dad to just start looking at/test driving cars. We went on Friday and I fell in love with it. We got prices and did a credit check and all that junk and talked them down in price. (I'm a good negotiator, I take after my sister who my dad says was the best) They offered me to just take it home for the day with out buying and just see how I liked it. I was all over that idea, but my dad said NO! and told them we still wanted to shop around. When we got home, we talked about everything and my dad felt really good about the price and the car but still kinda wanted to look around. I, of course, was hooked and wanted it so bad, but my dad still insisted that we waited until they called us! Later that afternoon, I received a call from them....we made some last minute deals....and here I am!!!!!!!!! I'm getting a spoiler put on next week. I can't believe it really happened! I honestly had no intentions of buying that morning, I just wanted to test drive it, but man do I love my PEARL!!! haha (her color is called pearl white, so her name is now pearl! It's a sparkly paint too!!!!!!)

Michelle's wedding cake

This wedding cake was for my friend at work, Michelle. Her reception was defiantly the best decorated reception I have ever been to. It was so dang cute! Thanks to April for helping out with this cake a little bit and for letting me borrow the stand! You're the best! This cake had wheat grass on bottom with all fresh flowers. Although it was pretty...please don't ever make me do grass again!!!! It was the biggest pain in the butt! haha
I helped April do these cookies for my friend that I did the cake for. She wanted 400 homemade, flowered shaped, pretty big cookies. These are the best tasting sugar cookies I've ever tasted. But I don't think anyone knows how much 400 cookies are, until they actually bake and frost them!!!!!!!!!!!!! They are pretty cute though, I must say....

Big 10

So life has just been kinda crazy. I've been working 6 days a week and come home exhausted but love what I do! I love my full time job, I wouldn't trade it for anything. I have the best boss in the world! He seriously is so awesome! And on the weekends, I have been helping April do cakes and desserts for weddings which is so fun! I don't every get sick of it or hate going....I LOVE IT! I'm used to being an assistant, I've done it for 3 years, so assisting April is a piece of cake! She is awesome too! She seriously is my idol! Anyway, enough blabbing!! Life kinda sucks right now, but what do ya do...I try to stay busy and get on with life.

Dr. Welch asked me to do his son's birthday cake and made his son think that he wasn't getting a cake at all and when he saw it, he about died! When Dr. Welch saw it, you would have thought it was his birthday!! haha But it was another camouflage cake and I think it turned out pretty good. I wish I could have recorded how Dr. Welch reacted...it was so funny!

Cakes and Britany Spears concert!

This last week was my niece, Blayke's, birthday. She turned 3 and has been looking forward to her birthday ever since Drake had his in December. I have a photo paper that has a ton of different cakes on it, and every time she comes over she will look at the paper for forever! And she will tell you exactly which cake she wants for her and ask everyone else which on they want! She's so cute! So I have planned for a while to do her cake. I wanted to do a bigger one to practice doing more wedding cake like cakes. I also wanted to try out how it was to do a fake tier. This girl is all about pink and princess!!! So I made it as pink as I could and added bling for her. The bottom tier is fake.

Then, Friday was the Britany Spears concert! Dr. Welch is the best Dr. ever and bought us tickets! And they were actually pretty awesome seats! We had a blast and even though there were some parts that were cheesy or she changed her out fit way too many times, I still made that night so much fun! Thanx for dancing with me Lindsey!! haha

The Pussy Cat Dolls opened for Britany and they were sooooo good!!!!!!!!

Waiting for Britany!

(sorry your head is cut off Kristen! My arm isn't quite long enough!)



Britany is pretty slutty....but it was still awesome! She had circus people there that performed through out the whole concert. Kinda cool.


The group!


And this cake I made this weekend for Brad's little sister Brandis, whom I love more than anything!!!! She is so awesome and we have so much fun together! She has asked me for forever to make this cake for her and I pretended like I didn't have time at all (which I almost didn't...thanx to Dana for stepping in to help relieve some stress when my mom was gone!! haha) She was so surprised when I brought it in to her!! Happy birthday girl!

This design I used from April who is the most amazing cake lady ever!! She is going on Food Network someday, I know it!! I'm sure most of you already look at her blog every day but click on my link to the side for her blog! Thanx April!!!! You're my idol!!!!

Easter Pageant/CAKE

So this weekend, me and some girls from work went to the Easter Pageant to watch our other friend/co-worker be the angle. She was so cute and did so good! Watching the Easter Pageant, really helped me remember the meaning of Easter and why we celebrate it. Even though I spent Easter all alone this year cause my parents decided they didn't love me anymore.....I had a blast!! I love having the house to myself and doing whatever I want! Or just having the quietness of my own kitchen so that I could make a cake too...

(Dang...Pam's eye's are closed!!! sorry it's the only picture I had! and sorry Amy, you aren't in it! Should have came earlier! WE LOVE YOU!)

The cake I made for the April birthday's in my office. And Denise's birthday is included!!
Happy Birthday girls! And Ashley!!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY BROTHER!!!

My brother Mike, has been obsessed with the Dallas Cowboys since I can remember. So I made him a birthday cake for it. He's one of my favorite brothers! When I was born till i was like 7 he would always sing me the song "My Little Buttercup". Then... his daughter was born and he hasn't sung it to me since! :( haha

I LOVE YOU MIKE! HAPPY 37!!!!

It's time...

FOR A NEW CAR!!!

Goal: SUMMER

Spring Break

WARNING! LONG POST!

Ok, where to even start! So this last week has been spring break for Brad and I with school and work, and let me tell you how relaxing it was! Brad left the beginning of spring break for SJ to hunt and work on the ranch while I stayed here and SHOPPED of course! Also received my first real professional massage. :) Brad came home in the middle of the week and I surprised him with a new shirt and some socks that you see here! (except not the socks!) I missed him!!

Brads addictions... Chips with cheese dip and TV...

Look how zoned he is...

We are trying to venture out and do more fun things together other then dinner and a movie all the time. We went and played goofy golf and had so much fun! We are both very competitive and had a serious but fun game. And yes...I kicked his butt! Yup..I WON!!

(Sorry this pic is blurry)

He was so upset... hahahahaha maybe you'll beat me next time babe!

This is kinda hard to see, but that's are score card! Luckily I got a picture of it before he ripped it up!

Then, Friday, we went on a picnic for lunch! Thanx to Ned's and a few treats I picked up, we had a fun relaxing lunch. The plan was to eat and then play catch, volleyball, or Frisbee, then hit up the batting cadges...but Arizona is freaking hot and we decided to save that for a cooler time in the morning! haha

Look at your own risk!

Trying to get his tan while he ate...

He apparently has very sensitive eyes and had a really hard time taking a fun picture looking up! haha We really tried this pictured like 20 times! LOL his eyes kept burning and watering...it was so funny!

I got a new job about a month ago at a different pediatric dental office just cause it was more money and more hours! And it was well worth the change. I love my new office. I work with Kristen now and we stay busy but know how to have fun. Dr. Welch has season tickets to the suns game and was so kind as to give them to us!

GO SUNS!

We bought our boys a present at the game! Cute huh! Brad loved the camo!!

Spring break is over... Sad day...

The final product...

Brad was so kind as to buy me flowers for my new flower pot! Isn't he the best?! ;) I wasn't so sure about my pot when I got it back, but I think it's ok once the flowers are in it! Now hopfully I'll continue to get flowers so I have a reason to use it!

I posted!!

Ok, so I'm a horriable blogger now!! But this is what has been going on this last week! My friend Erica is getting married on Saturday and we threw her a bridal shower! (well allison mostly did...Thanx girl!!) I made the cake of course! What do you think?

Me and Kassi

Mallory and I

The gang

And this weekend me, Kristen, and Brandis went to As You Wish and painted pottery! It was actually super fun! If you're anything like my sister you will think it's gay to do that on a saturday night...but seriously, nothing was going on, and we were sick of doing the same ol stupic stuff! haha I made a big vase for the flowers I don't get. Kristen made a plate for her house someday, and Brandis also made a vase for David...haha This is what they look like before they get fired! I'm so excited to see what mine will look like! I did black and red!
