FAREWELL TO 2009!

A Wilmington Christmas is like none other,...




...only here on the coast can you wear your Christmas Flip-Flops!
And instead of "Snowmen" we have "Sandmen!"

And, as in every home where there are little ones, we experienced the delightful giggles as Stephen and Eve first saw their wrapped gifts, and then the happiness as they unwrapped each one.





By the end of the evening, we had a living room with a work bench and tools on one end,
and dolls and a kitchen on the other!
 




Here are some of our favorite Fall Cakes!

 


We love being the "Cake Ladies" for families, beginning with  
Shower Cakes, the very special Toddler Birthday cakes, to cakes that celebrate College Graduation!







The Turtle Cake for a Baby Shower was designed after the Nursery Quilt.





For this two year old's birthday, the theme was "Strawberry Shortcake!"
The little cake was for the birthday girl to get her little fingers into!



A Happy Graduation for a North Carolina State Student!





A Cake Fit For A Princess...




It is always special to be able to create a cake for the Princess in our own family!

 

Happy Birthday to our 4 1/2 year old Eve!
(Our summer birthday girl wanted to celebrate her birthday during the school year with her friends!)
