Once again Mark and I had a very busy weekend. We are very lucky to have such a wonderfully large family and the opportunity to spend time with them.
Friday was Saige's (our niece) 2nd birthday. We all gathered at Jenn (Mark's Jenn) and Paul's house for Saige's birthday dinner.
Jenn has asked if I could make a cake for the celebration. I thought I would surprise her and try a 'special' cake! Well she was surprised. I actually surprised myself as I have never made a cake like this before! I think it turned our pretty good if I do say so myself!! Mind you, it took about 1 1/2 longer then I anticipated to decorate...not something I am going to do every week!
Here are some other pictures of the day. Saige was MOST impressed with her Dora bandana and wanted to put it on right away. Isn't she just the cutest thing!!
Saturday found us visiting Mom and Phil for dinner and a night of card playing! We had a great dinner and a great night was enjoyed by all!
Sunday we were off to Hortense's for yet another dinner!! Didn't I tell you how lucky we are!! We had a great night there and there was more card playing!! Uncle and I even won!!
So far this weekend I have been waking up about 6:00am - WITH NO ALARM! What is with that?? Friday, Saturday, Sunday and this morning I was up that early. I figure that by tomorrow - when I have to set my alarm again - it will be a CHORE to get up that early!!
To top off this wonderful weekend, Mark and I are lucky enough to have today off also. How great it is to have a day at home to get caught up on things when you were out all weekend!

I know what you mean about that alarm clock. I really don't like alarm clocks. :)
That cake is darling!! It sounds like you have a wonderfully busy weekend.
Saige is just adorable.
I woke up on vacation at 4am for 2 days. It didn't please me either.
I forgot to say the cake you made is beautiful.
Hey maybe you could fundraise with those adorable cakes?!? Just hve those adorable kiddies selling them and you'll make a fortune. Either that or you'll have kids with tummy aches.
Now that's a cake. Hubby made a floppy boston cream pie for Search adn Destroy's first b-day...hmmm... he ate it ALL!
Getting up at 6am automatically...same here, does that ever wear off?
