Fondant and camp fires

Well this was my first fondant cake! I had a lot of fun, but I have to say I love working with butter cream frosting a lot better!



The other night are friends decided that they wanted to have a camp fire and roast hot dogs and marsh mellows. It was way fun! it was Lachlynn's first fire and she loved being out side and being around the fire. J.d. being the boy scout that he is was in charge of the fire making sure it was always as big as him.

Cake & Lachlynn

I found this cake in a book and wanted to make it for the sheppard family reunion because it had a family tree on it. It turned out pretty good!


Here are some pictures of Lachlynn that I love. The one where she is on her tummy is when she first learned to roll over. She is such a big girl!!

Gettysburg and DC

These pictures are from our trips to Gettysburg and Washington DC Temple. Although there was a wonderfull Sheppard family reunion inbetween, I didn't bring the pictures so I will do a seperate post about our wonderfull trip to Salt Lake. The first pictures are from when we went down to Gettysburg. They have all sorts of memorials set up and we took a really neat tour of the battlefields. Lachlynn really loved the cannons.

Here is one of the Gettysburg address that we really liked.



Here are the rest of the pics...






This past weekend we went to the DC Temple with our friends that we met here, Adam and Erin. We rented a van so we could drive downn there togethere and we had a great time. The Temple was so beautifull and we watched their kids while they went through a session then we swapped so we could go through. It was a fun time had all around. Then we had some Duncan Doughnuts or were they Tommys I don't remember. Anyways, Thanks Adam and Erin for a great time.
