A cake and a bear

I went to my parents house this last week and got a few things done that were really fun. I spent the first couple of days making an "anniversary" cake for my parents - 30 years :-). It's my first real try at a tiered cake and overall, I thought it turned out really well. Although, it did start to sag once the raspberries inside started softening up. You live you learn. I was especially proud of my roses!! They really weren't too hard for how cute they turned out.
I spent a little bit of time helping my mom finish some halloween costumes. Benson gets to be a pumpkin, like Asher was last year and the year before :-) But Asher gets to be super cute bear. Benson thought the bear hat was a lot of fun to snuggle. He's dreaming of wearing it next year.








The other thing I'm really proud of, is how productive I've been today! Israel and I got up and specifically studied the scriptures in the morning instead of waiting until we were ready to go to bed and half asleep. I can really tell the difference in my day when I put the most important things first.
