BRYN'S 12TH BIRTHDAY

I can't believe my baby is 12! Bryn came to the bakery last week to work on her birthday cake. Her design this year was from the movie, UP. She loves that movie and designed this cake all by herself.

 

The cake was iced in buttercream, then a cloud background was airbrushed on the sides.

Bryn searched the internet for the right pictures of the characters and then we printed them onto edible paper.

The back of this cake even had a design from the movie. She put Paradise Falls here and the topper was the house, of course.

HAPPY  BIRTHDAY BRYN!

Recess at Work Day!

Did you know that today was "Recess at Work Day". Really, it's on my calendar. So, my daughter, Bryn and I surprised the employees with a "Recess Day". We came in the evening before and drew games and pictures  with sidewalk chalk all over the bakery floor.  We bought silly hats and made buttons to wear. 

The girls took to the outside of the bakery to decorate the walk. We even left chalk packs outside our neighboring businesses so they could play a little too. What a great recess day!
