RIP Farrah and Michael

As if the unwelcomed news of Farrah Fawcett's death wasn't enough, to hear that Michael Jackson passed away is a shock. I was expecting at any moment to hear about Farrah because she was sick. Michael on the other hand, I knew had lost his mind over the years by becoming more and more strange, but I never expected him to die. Two icons of my youth are gone and I hope they are now in peace and in God's loving hands.

Mallory's Birthday Cakes

The first square cake was for her actual birthday on March 11th. The other one was for the party we had for her at her grandmother's house in San Antonio. Both delicious cakes were made by Candy Haven
