A picture's worth a thousand words, so...

...this post is almost a novel.

Princess Honey Combs

Here is my little girl in her beautiful Halloween costume that her wonderful Grandma Kristy made her:

Maxine's cupcakes

These cupcakes and cake were for a woman named Maxine, who was throwing herself a 39 Forever, Forever 39 party. In actuality, it was her 75th birthday. Anyway, I heard it looked beautiful and was a lot of fun.

Here they are all together


Here is the sleigh. Yes, I know it doesn't look that much like one, but I tried.


I think this was the most frequent design, as it was the easiest.


The lighthouse. I was pretty happy with how this turned out.


The paddlewheel of a Paddleboat.


Hot Air balloon. This, the lighthouse, the 39's, and the helm turned out the best.


Globe.


The helm of a Paddleboat. For some reason, when I said paddlewheel, this is what Maxine thought of, so I did some. No coloring too, I just made chocolate buttercream.


The Centerpiece. It was the combination of two cakes, the Standing Ovation, and the Can't Contain Our Excitement! I could only get a picture of the one it looks the most like. It was supposed to have streamers coming off also, but the fondant didn't cooperate, and I didn't give it enough time to dry.

Well, better luck next time!

Kady and the Treehouse

Last summer Grandpa Combs started a treehouse. With the help of some grandsons, he got the platform done.


In the mean time, the Combs family was joined by a beautiful little girl. And a handsome little boy.



And the little girl moved into the house by the treehouse. Then summer came again, and the big grandkids were coming for a visit. So Grandma Combs, with some friends to help, started working on finishing the treehouse.








More pics to follow when it's done. I just wanted to do a post.

Pictures of Kady Scarlett!

So, I just took these pictures yesterday, so they're the most recent of the Kady!
