Sarah and Regan I need your help!!!

Okay guys, I need you!!! I've been asked to do a hghschool musical themed b-day cake for this friday. It's my first repeat customer other than the office so I'm really excited about it. And since she just order it a little stressed. But since I've never seen the movie I need some ideas. Maybe we'll rent it tonight :).
She wants 2 cakes, one small one and one larger, They need to go together so they can display them both, but they will serve them at seperate parties. So I've been searching ideas online and not coming up with much. Any ideas would be great! Thanks a million!

My Favorite Cake Ever!!!

I finally did it! I made a cake that turned out just as I imagined it. This cake is for my brothers b-day. His birthday really isn't until the end of the month, but since hes in town we are having a b-day dinner for him tomorrow at my parents house. So I think the cake is kinda supposed to be a surprise, but I'm way to excited about it to wait and post it. So if you see this don't tell Kelly. :) And if you are Kelly, pretend you didn't see it. Kelly is in love with his IPod. So I thought it be fun to make him an IPod cake. This is a 11x15 chocolate cake with a choc/raspberry filling. Covered in vanilla fondant. All the details are edible and made from fondant.

Our fun day :)

Today we babysat for a good friend most the day. We had 3 extra little ones, but had a fun fun day with them. They came over around 10 and Aaron played soccer with them all in the backyard, which Parker loved! Except when the ball got kicked away from him, then he'd get mad and tell you that "that's not the way you play it!" After the boys were all exhausted we had lunch and then finger painted. Parker usually won't put his hands in it, he thinks its yucky to have his hands so dirty :). But with the help of the bigger boys he learned how fun it was to be dirty and just play.

Then since we still had a few hours before the boys went home we went outside and played in the little pool and on the slipn slide. It's so funny when they don't know how to slide on it. They just kept running back and forth on it and running into each other.

After that the kids just played. But after they went home Aaron took us out to Goodwood BBQ. It was soo yummy ;). And the best part was I didn't have to cook it or clean it up. After a long day with a hurting foot, and Aaron having Migraines it was just what we needed. Parker and KC were even pretty good. KC kept wanting to eat the fries off of Aaron's plate, even though he had a whole pile of his own in front of him.

Then we went to Maceys and got food storage, not that fun really, but it feels good to know we are getting a step closer to having what we need to be prepared. The store was having a sale all week on their Family Preparedness items so we took advantage and stocked up on a bunch of stuff. Then we had to figure out were to put it all. So if you look under our beds and in our bedroom closets your bound to find wheat and dried eggs :).. I can't wait until we have a storage room for all this stuff.

Office Cake

Here's this months office cake. Sheet cakes aren't my fav to do since you can't get as creative with so many different peoples b-days, but its fun to make little things for each person. And it gives me good practice with my recipes and layering the sheet cakes. This month there were 3 bdays, one person likes weight lifting, one music and one bonsai trees. So I made little pictures for each of them.

This cake is a yellow cake from scratch, thanks Cory for the great recipe. I think it will be really yummy :). It has chocolate icing and Bavarian cream filling.
