Tomorrow morning I am going to Jess' house to bake/ decorate the cake for Elisabeth's church shower. It will be my biggest creation so far... and I'm pretty nervous about it!!! (None of the other cakes I've made have quite made it up to my standards.... so hopefully this one will be the exception since so many people will see it!!) I'm going to Jess' house because she has a decent sized counter over there... and my counter space is very limited... makes it pretty tough to roll out enough fondant to cover a 12 inch layered cake. (I'm also going to stack an 8 or 10 inch on top of that... my first ever stacked cake!! Fingers crossed!!) If it turns out and I end up serving it, I will post pictures... if it crumbles and doesn't work, there's always Sam's Club!!! lol

On a separate note, I bought a dress for Justin and Elisabeth's wedding.... I haven't lost enough weight to get into the sweater that I was hoping to wear.... (looks like Jess might wear it) so I just have to find shoes and something to wear with my dress to make it a bit more decent, plus a shirt for Zion, (possibly/probably new pants), and something for Lincoln to wear.

Oh yeah, and Jariah and Becca and the kids might have to stay with us because Mom and Dad are working on dry walling their house, which would be pretty crazy because it's a smaller apartment than Pusch Ridge was and we've added 2 people. Pusch Ridge was a 2 bed/ 2 bath apartment and the smallest place we all lived in while we were in Arizona.... Zion and I currently have a 1 bed/ 1 bath little apartment.... but we DO have a hide-abed and a pack-n-play and a very nice swing!!! (It's only a week and I'm gonna LOVE seeing all of them, even if it is tight quarters!!!!) =)

Actually we have added 3... When we lived at Pusch Ridge it was just you and Zion and Jariah, Brandon and I. Now you guys have Lincoln and we have Ben and Natalie! So, it should be interesting...but for one week it might be interestingly fun, lol!
Can't wait to see you guys!!!

Good luck with the cake!! I' sure you will do great!!
