You will be missed.....

Jonathan May

You touched our hearts and ears,

taught us to appreciate the music.

You showed kindness and gentleness to all,

Had a love for children that is rare.

Always had time for everyone and

never made anyone feel they were imposing on you.

Your absence is deeply felt.......

This weekend very unexpectedly we lost our friend, teacher and conductor.

Jonathan May was a very special person that is going to missed

and never forgotten.

God is Good....

The Finshed Cakes!!!

Barbie came out better than she began.

The purple under leaked into the white fondant, Hubby wanted me to start over.

I was almost in tears.

Barbie was taller then the cake due to her being a ballerina. With bending the knees and stuffing cake crumbs and fondant in the front of her, we were able to get her more up right.

Have been told by every one in the house she has a big butt.

Yes there is a opalescence to the dress. I took sugar water and pink sugar painted it on in between the purple flowers. Wish I had some yellow dots to dot the flowers.

Made a bow at her waist.

And covered the doll so she is not pink.

The butter-cream frosting is the best I have ever made.

Here is the boys cake.Chocolate thru and thru for mud with worms coming out all over.

The Beginning's

The sections are baked. (looking rough since I took them out of the pan to soon and stuck to the counter)

Homemade fondant, fingers are crossed since I have never worked with fondant.

Buttercream icing for the decorating and under line the fondant. Wanted Barbie and dress to match but instead we are having pink and purple. Note in first picture Barbie is pink...I colored the icing purple. ooppps.

Check back later for the finial cake.

I am very nervous of the outcome...
