Cake Shopping

Next, comes the fun part of shopping for a wedding cake.  Now, I don't know about you, but overall I am not a big cake eater so this could be an interesting challenge to find just the right cake.  I am not as concerned with how my cake will taste as I am about how my cake will look. :)  That is the most important part to me...that the cake will look good in my pictures.  So off my mom and I go to check out all of the bakeries in town and see what will be the best options for us.

We started out at Daily's Bakery and spoke to the cake decorator to see what our options would be...after visiting with the cake decorator and seeing the bakery we decided this just wasn't going to be our best option.  So off we go again.  We spent one Saturday just driving by and going in to each of the bakeries to see if they made wedding cakes and seeing what each bakery looked like.

Here are a few of the cakes that I was looking at:




We finally decided to have Sugar Mamma's Bakery make the wedding cake.  They were super friendly and easy to work with (which is extremely important to me).  So after visiting with the owner of the bakery and giving her my ideas for what I wanted my cake to look like and what flavors I wanted the cake to be we were off in a good direction.  The first cake below is a very unusual cake for a wedding, the second one was a consideration for my actual wedding cake.  It was a great relief when the wedding cake was ordered.  Now if you want to see the actual cake that I chose, you must come to the wedding to see it, because the actual cake won't be pictured until after the wedding :)

Miracles and Faith

Have you seen miracles in your lifetime?  I have and without a doubt I’ve known it was only God’s grace and Him performing that miracle that the situation changed.  I have been raised in the church and have seen many different miracles throughout my lifetime, but one of the more recent ones was when my youngest son was born.  He was born at 30 weeks but had quit growing at 28 weeks gestation.  He was only 2 pounds and 5 ounces when he was born.  Now, I know that science and the medical field did everything they could, but I also know that it is a true miracle that he is alive today because there is only so much that humans can do on their own.  It is a miracle that I survived that pregnancy also.  I remember being at Heaven’s gates the night before my son was born.  I was on bed rest in the hospital for 12 days before my son was born.  That is one of the hardest things to go through when you have another child at home that you can’t be there ...

New blog

This was a challenge trying to get this blog set up, but I wanted to start a blog about my long-distance dating journey.  My boyfriend lives about six hours from where I live so it has been an interesting challenge trying to figure out the logistics of when we can see each other since our work schedules are completely opposite.  We met about eight years ago when he lived in the same town that I live in.  We attended the same church at the time and that is how we met.  After dating on and off for a few years he accepted a position in a new store that was opening with his company and decided to move away.  We remained friends and talked on the phone occasionally but decided that dating just wasn't going to work at that time.  After a few years, we decided to try the dating thing again and now it has been about three months and we see each other about every two weeks or so and talk on the phone to each other just about every night.  Well that is enough hi...

Impossible!!!

1 Peter 1: 7-9 That the trial of your faith, being much more precious than of gold that perisheth, though it be tried with fire, might be found unto praise and honour and glory at the appearing of Jesus Christ: 8 Whom having not seen, ye love; in whom, though now ye see  him  not, yet believing, ye rejoice with joy unspeakable and full of glory: 9 Receiving the end of your faith,  even  the salvation of  your  souls. What is your impossible situation?  What is your I need a miracle situation?  I heard these lines in a song recently and it got me to thinking about how sometimes situations in our lives seem so impossible and out of control.  We just don't know what to do about it or what to think about that situation. I read the above scripture in 1 Peter last week and it got me to thinking about how gold is refined by going through fire, diamonds are mined from deep within the earth.  We wouldn't have the beautiful jewelry and precious me...
