A 4th of July Wedding

 Edited post: Pictures have been removed by blogspot.

On the 4th of July my cousin was married. Over a year ago I offered to do her cake. I like making wedding cakes. It seems I do at least one a year. I only make them for friends and family. I have thought of going into business but I am not sure I could do wedding cakes on a full time basis. Lots of work. Anyway, here are the pictures from the wedding....

The Cake..........


Just Married ;o)...........

 Food Fight!!!!!!!!!

Amazingly enough neither one of them got cake on their cloths and it got pretty crazy. There was however lots of Chocolate cake on the walls behind them. See no cake in sight....


Mother of the Bride, the Bride and the Brides Brother....

Here is a picture of the Brides family....


It was nice to see everyone and it was a gorgeous day for the happy couple. :o)

Tomorrow I will post some of the canning I have been doing. I just took the Apricot Leather out of the dehydrator...Yummmmm.

A fun filled visit!

We had a great visit with the boy while he was home. :o) He didn't have to work very much so he was able to hang with his friends and us more. Here are few pictures of his time home...

Silly boys...Blair's friend is at Navy Bootcamp and the boys decided to mail him cards with Air Force, Army and Marines stickers all over the outside of the envelops.
Here they are just hanging out...

We didn't get a picture of the 3 of us with Hubby while the boy was in his uniform. I never got him to hold still for a picture in his Dress Blues....that rascal!!!

This picture will have to do.Here is a picture of a water fall at the Portland Japanese Gardens. We went there the day before we took Josh to the Airport.

After going to the Japensese Gardens we had dinner with Hubbies Brother and Family. It was good company and a good dinner. A funny thing happened while at dinner...at the next table was a Highschool classmate of mine from Washington! It was too funny. He was visiting his brother in Portland. :) Small world. I didn't get a picture of him but I asked a stranger to take one of the family together :o)

Well, besides visiting with the kid and family we really didn't do much. I wish I could have gotten more pictures while he was home but the ones I did get will do. He is at his new home now and settling in just fine. He seems to be enjoying his work but has not done a whole lot yet, still doing inprocessing.

Tomorrow I will post pictures of my cousins wedding we went to over the 4th. I did her wedding cake also. :o)

Hope everyone is having a great summer!
