Betsy & Greg's

Yes - the two got married Saturday and what a beautiful picture of Christ and the Church they were. I know family and friends were helping along the way. It rarely feels like work though 'cause you are spending time with your friends as you work - we just got to spend about 24 hours with some of our dearest friends.




I was thrilled 'cause I was asked to help with fixing the bride's maids' hair. I think I have now really figured out the waterfall braid. It is much easier to do the braid and then curl hair (in my personal opinion). After Elizabeth and Elsie worked on Betsy's hair, I grabbed a picture of her trying on her vale - she was a beautiful bride. :)

 One of my favorite things was the song that Kaytra and Olivia sang - Twila Paris's How Beautiful - they sang beautifully.

Hope you all had a great weekend! Happy Thanksgiving!

Oma's Chocolate Cake

I made the cake

We celebrated Grandma's 82nd birthday today. Grace made delicious diabetic, paleo chocolate cupcakes with caramel frosting. Josh and I made Oma's Chocolate Cake with Caramel frosting.

Josh made the caramel frosting

We decided that the joint effort was a success - but very sweet and very rich - but not too rich. I think almost everyone had two pieces at some point during the day. :)

This was the end product - and the joint effort was a success.
