My first fondant experience

I suppose if I want to one day have a successful blog, then I should probably start posting blogs... That makes sense, right? Well I went back to Cary to see my family for Easter and they wanted me to make my famous lemon cake. My boyfriend gave me some cake decorating supplies for my birthday, including a fondant roller and some gum paste tools. I've never used fondant in my life, but decided to test my skills on a cake that only my family would see if it turned out awful. At least I knew it would taste good no matter what! :)
I think it turned out alright! I definitely have a lot to learning to do, and I'm hoping I can take some cake decorating classes once I graduate. The pictures are taken with my cell phone because I forgot to bring my camera with me.

Happy Easter!

Why you should not let the best man come to your engagement session...

Or another title - Why you should not let your boyfriend assist you during photoshoots.



Just kidding. I love this guy. He can lighten up any mood and can make the best out of any situation. Today was no exception. I haven't done a photoshoot in a long time, and yesterday I blacked out and busted my eyelid open, so I wasn't exactly on my game today. A friend of ours is getting married and wanted us to get some shots at the arboretum and beach. Josh is a creative guy and likes to take pictures as well, and he is also the best man. These are the results.
