Celebrate Good Times, Come on!!

This weekend we had many reasons to celebrate!
1) Lilah got to meet her Great-Grandpa Ron and Great-Gam! They flew in Thursday and left today.
2) Saturday was Chris' 24th Birthday!
3) Dave and Lauren were in from Dallas, so the whole family was together!
We had a really great time visiting with everyone; the weather was beautiful so we got to hang out by the pool all day on Saturday. Saturday evening we went to dinner for Chris' birthday and had a really fun time. Little Lilah bean was a total ham all weekend, and had a really great time being passed around from person to person for a few days.
Also, this weekend, I tackled perhaps my most challenging cake to date; here is a picture of Chris' birthday cake that I made. It is a 2-tiered lemon layer cake frosted with lemon buttercream and filled with raspberry preserves. I covered and decorated it with homemade marshmallow fondant that was flavored with lemon. It took FOREVER to make, but was really fun! It was quite yummy as well!!
