April Birthdays


April is always a busy month for us with Abbie, Jed and Katie's birthdays being so close together. This year we added another fun birthday to the mix, our first niece and cousin, Kaisley Nicole Isaacson, was born.


For Jed's 30th Birthday I pulled out my cake making skills and made him a candied pecan cake. Which I then turned into an I-pad, one of his new tech obsessions.


The girls are in love with the Disney movie Tangled. It is so much fun to watch them watch the movie as they have to sing and act it out as well. So for their birthday cake I decided to make them a Rapunzel tower and I was determined to make it all out of cake. It probably could have been taller, etc if I had made it out of Rice Krispies, but I really enjoyed the challenge of getting it as tall as I could with cake.
