More cakes!!!

So, it was my friend's birthday this week (lets call her Amber) and we had talked a while ago about making her a birthday cake. She helped with SB's army cake, and lots of pressure was applied to beating the awesomeness of said army cake. BUT, I didn't know what to do. I stressed about it for like 2 whole days, and then I remembered these cupcakes I made for Chanel, a friend's sister who is now a friend of mine. Any way, I remembered how much Amber liked the cupcakes and decided to make her cake based off of this design. Plus Chanel told me I should too, so I did. And here is what the cake looked like:










And here is the birthday girl with her cake, she absolutely LOVED it...almost as much as SB loved his cake, which was a lot. 






And here are a couple more random shots of the cake!!

Did you think to pray?

I will make this quick as I have not a lot of time. Our basement flooded this weekend, which was no good, and since I live in the basement it was LOADS of fun for me! Horray! Fortunately, not too much damage was done and we are waiting to see if the carpet was saved. Have I mentioned lately that I have an angel for a sister? In case you forgot, you should go read this post again, because she is an angel and I am SO grateful for her.
      I have found that you should never tell the Lord you have enough to handle and can't handle anymore, because that is when he piles it on even more. Its so great, ha ha ha, just kidding. But, when he gives you so much that you feel like you can't handle it, he also sends you people that help you through it...like my sister is a prime example of that in my life. Someone else that I have recently come to be grateful for is SB. He has become a real true friend to me. He's one of those people that you can't help but be happy around. I love having people around me like that, that lift me up and help me remember how much the Lord loves me. Its great. I love having awesome friends!!!
     I think my boss at my evening job is trying to kill me. There's no other explanation for the shifts I got stuck with this week. Its crazy, and if I just stop posting you'll know who to blame first.
     I am feeling really pretty good right now, and I have no one to thank for it except the Lord who has truly blessed me through this hard weekend of mine. I am so grateful for the knowledge that I have of the restored gospel of Jesus Christ. It is AMAZING!!! I LOVE IT!!!
