Long time no Post

I know I am a total slacker. What can I give you all as a great excuse??? I guess none really. At least not any new ones. I do however feel totally guilty for not at least posting something. So I am here now, posting on what a busy week we have had. It is all do to Nathan. He turned four last Wedsenday and we were celebrating his birthday pretty much since then. He is very much into Spider man, so that is the cake and cupcakes design I made him this year. Yes, I made cupcakes and a cake. The cupcakes were of course for his class up at preschool. Then over the weekend I was going to make his cake for his "party" on Monday. Nathan and I had looked at different types of spider cakes to see what he wanted. He chose a Spider man bust cake. It was really cool looking and really didn't seem had to make. I was ready for the challenge. I had everything ready to go, cakes baked on Saturday ready to frost and put together on Sunday. With the time change though, we all needed naps, desperately. Nathan of course didn't want to and so he watched a movie. When I woke up I noticed he had chocolate all around his face. It took me all of two seconds to fear/realize where it came from. Yes, I found the cakes that I had made and put up (at least I thought I put them up well enough) half eaten and pieces everywhere. Needless to say, I wasn't very happy. So long story made longer, he did not get the spider man cake that he wanted, but I managed to salvage what I could. I think he could have really cared less what it actually looked liked, but I was looking forward to trying out this new design of cake. All in all we had a great time with family and friends enjoying hot dogs and hamburgers. Nathan received many nice gifts and had a great time. So once again, HAPPY BIRTHDAY NATHAN!!!
