Look at me go!!
My Best Butt Cheek, Becky, is having her first little girl, Alli Jane. She is due on Halloween, so Becky's sister Megan, sister in law Tasha, me, Casey, Jeni, and a few other friends threw her a shower...a halloween themed shower. I volunteered to make the 'pumpkin cake'...not a pumpkin flavored cake, but a pumpkin shaped cake. Those of you who know me, know that I am not the baker..so Megan and Tasha were nice enough to let me do it :0) I made the 'better than anything cake' but did it in two bundt cake pans so it would be shaped like a pumpkin. I made the whipping cream and dyed it orange, and the stem was a snickers bar. My 'crafty-ness' didn't stop there, I also made Becky a hoody towel (with the help of my cousin Tracy:0))! I am sure that those of you who know me are in complete shock because baking DRIVES ME CRAZY and I don't sew..but for some reason I actually WANTED to bake and sew!! I also made this YUMMY salsa, and Megan had the cutest idea of cutting out a pumpkin and putting the salsa in the pumpkin. The food was yummy! Here are the end results...

Good Job, Girl! I made a pumpkin cake for Trevin on his 3rd birthday (who was due on Halloween, himself but thankfully came early). I did it just like you. And you did a super job on everything else as well!
Your cake was adorable and I ate soooo much of your dip that I was sick that night from eating WAY too much! Good times! :)
HEY, THANKS FOR THE RECEIPES! CAN'T WAIT TO TRY THEM SOON! YES, I DON'T MIND IF YOU PUT MY BLOG ON YOUR LIST. I ADDED YOURS TO MINE.
That cake looks way yummy! And way to brake out of your comfort zone too! Oh and by the way I love your Family photos!
Look at how domestic and creative you are! Your towel and cake are darling! I want to be like you when I grow up!
