Where is my life headed?

Have you ever thought about where your life is heading? Lately I feel like I'm at an invisible fork in the road. I'm working on quitting my job. Trying to get someone hired and trained before I leave (she doesn't know I'm going yet), and I've been job hunting or at least thinking about options of what to do with my life. I've really been feeling like I should exlpore the cake route more. But I feel #1 I'm not good enough yet and #2 That it's a huge risk. I don't enjoy the CNA work anymore. I'm good at it and enjoy helping people but I'm not sure that it's what I want to be spending my life doing. I don't have any huge desicions that I have to make now. But I'm really questioning where I'm going, working wise. Brigham has been supportive and wonderful on this. He just wants me to enjoy whatever I choose to do. I'm extrememly blessed to have him supporting me.

Doll Birthday Cake

This is my first time making a doll cake. It was chocolate with raspberry filling. I baked it in my mixing bowel. I didn't have a doll, so I sculpted one. It's my first attempt at sculpting with fondant and it's clear I need more practise. But I think for a first attempt it was awesome. So the only thing the little girl wanted was a pink dress cake. So I looked through my photos of wedding dress pictures and found this one. I love it!! So all in all I got to practice: figure sculpting, hand painting, fondant pleating, and fondant draping.

Dream Night at the Zoo

Last Friday the zoo had what they call Dream Night at the Zoo. They only let in kids and adults with handicaps and their families. We had Kiersi his IBI worker, and Grandma Anna come with us and we had a ton of fun. Kizzy absolutly hated the people dressed up as animals but for the first time Zeke went up and touched them. It was awesome. Zeke's favorite animal (well the only one he seemed interested in and looked at) was the lions. He said cat and roared. Kizzy absolutly loved herself as well. The only downfall was right at the end a huge thunderstorm hit. It's like someone had turned on a wind machine and a shower! We were soaked through!!
