It's about time!

So last year for Stephen's birthday he got a Yudu silkscreening machine. A couple days ago we finally used it for the first time. It worked pretty well. It was a little time consuming but I'd say for his first time using the thing his project turned out quite well.

{Stephen made this for Katie and Bill's little boy. The giraffe says Stephen because really, what do giraffes say? Bill and Katie have been teaching their little girl animal noises and when they got to the giraffe, Bill made up some silly noise. Stephen loves giraffes and really wants Emme & Will to learn his name, so he made this.}

Stephen, Anthony and I signed up for a 4 week cake decorating class at UVU this summer. We learned how to neatly cover cakes in fondant and how to make flowers out of fondant and buttercream. We also learned a lot of really good tipsfor planning and decorating cakes. Here are some of the flowers we made from fondant.

Sewing Machine!

My parents have been in town since this last Saturday.
They've wanted to get me a sewing machine for several months now and today we picked one out.
It's a Husqvarna Viking Sapphire edition.
I'm really happy with it so far, it's really high-tech, but I'm getting use to it.
I've already made a pin cushion (a trial one) but I've got some more fabric to perfect it. Hopefully I'll have plenty of time to finish up some projects from last semester and a couple of dresses I've been waiting to make before school starts up again.

Stephen picked up a dremel the other day at Home Depot and has since been hard at work making pumpkins.
More pictures to come...
