Cakes and Cakes, and Cupcakes Oh My

I have been very busy these last few days. I have baked 48 cupcakes and 2 cakes. But oh I still need to ice them. They all need to be ready by tomorrow. The cupcakes have to be ready to be delivered to my children's school by 8:00 in the morning. This week has been teacher appreciation week. I am on the board of the school's PFA and we are giving all the teachers a special treat of cupcakes tomorrow. I have baked half of what is needed. My good friend and the Prez of the PFA has baked the other half. The two cakes are for a soccer party Friday night. So I guess I have a little bit of time to decorate them. Like I have said in the past.... Nothin like waiting till the last minute on things. I also need to go out tomorrow and finish purchasing items for the party, plus gift cards for the coaches. Not to mention go out to the teacher's favorite spots to pick up some goodies for them as well. We have really spoiled them this week. But they do deserve it.
Well, all I have left to do tonight is just make some icing to decorate the cupcakes and oh yeah, make three thank you cards for Ally's teachers. Just another busy day in my crazy but wonderful life.
Until next time.

Happy Stampin and Happy Bakin.

The bugs are here.

Well, here is the bug cake. It was not what I had visioned but hey, that is just the way it goes. I always have something totally different in mind when I do cakes. But this one turned out great also. The birthday boy loved it and so did his friends. That is all that mattered. This is just the first one of many that I am doing in the next two months. The kids are finishing up their soccer season this week so that is two soccer cakes for next weekend's party. The drama play at Ally's school is at the end of May so I was asked to do a cake for the pre-party. June is just as busy. Little man's 8th birthday is next month and he keeps changing his design plan for his cake. Right now it is Star Wars so we shall see what it will be the closer the date gets. June also brings baby shower cupcakes. Can not wait to do those. Noah's Ark is the theme.
Well have a great Sunday. Im going to rest today as the rest of the week is very busy.
