Bible Bowl

On October the 9th our church youth, 1st-12th grade, competed in our 2nd Bible Bowl. In the first one our Senior group won their age division and the Over All. We were so proud of them for all the hard work.



But this time it was our Junior group that won their division! I am so proud of Andrew and Taylor. It was just those 2. I didn't take any pictures. I forgot my camera...we were in charge of the food that day and it was crazy! lol

I am going to get a picture of the 2 of them with the banner!

Our next Bible Bowl is November 12. I wish all of our youth luck...may a sweep is in our future!
These are some pictures I took with my phone of them studying...


Josh and our Elementary Group


Brother Tim and our Junior and Senior Groups together...there are 5 more...they all wouldn't fit in one pic.


I will let you know how we do!

Recent Cakes

Wow! Has it really been that long since my last post? I can't believe it. Time is rushing by. I have done a few cakes in the meantime. I enjoy doing them, but they are time consuming and with all the recent activities that I have going on I had to turn down one yesterday. I hate that, but I didn't want to disappoint them with an ugly cake...lol


This one is Sheri's birthday cake. She wanted a True Blood Cake that had "Bite Me" on it. I put some fang marks with blood coming out of them under her name. Her husband wanted it to bleed when they cut it. It stumped me, but I thinned out some strawberry preserves and put it in the middle. She said she didn't let it set out long enough for it to run, but she LOVED it.


I made Mindy a Twilight inspired cake for her birthday. If you know my sister then you know that she loves books...she loves to read. So I did all four of the books as her cake. The picture above are the book spines. I did have a little trouble with this cake. It cracked and I cried.

Here is the top...note the crack. She still loved it. Very fun to make, just wish it wouldn't have cracked...oh well...it tasted good.
