Showerless

Well, I didn't shower today...and by that I mean the baby shower I was throwing Emma had to be cancelled! Around 11 last night, Emma called- she and Shanon had been in the car since 4:30 and still hadn't even gotten out of Georgia!! With the bad weather and traffic, they knew there was no way they could make it to Louisville for the shower the next morning. We were both really disappointed, but there was nothing else we could do.

But gosh darn it, I was all ready to blog about this shower...so I'm blogging anyway. :) Here is the cake I ordered, which is the cutest thing I've ever seen:


One layer is italian cream cake, and the other layer is strawberry (thought pink on the inside was a cute idea). Deena is going to Atlanta next weekend for another shower for Emma, so I froze the cake and she will take it with her then. Glad it isn't going to waste...hope it tastes okay after being frozen!

I ordered the cake to match the theme I had picked out on the shower invitations:

The girl I ordered the cake from had sent me some pictures of cakes she had done in the past. I chose the cake I did since it reminded me of the invitation, but I had her make the colors pink and gray, since those are Emma's baby room colors. I also had her change the pregnant girl on top to have a hot pink purse and shoes, to match the invitations. I think it turned out just darling!

On the bright side, I got some stuff cleaned up around the house, got some pictures hung, and have plenty of food to eat at home while Ben is gone!

  2. This is the cutest cake! Megan I just can't believe we couldn't make it. Shanon did everything he could. We just feel so bad. I can't wait to eat this weekend.

  5. You can get that same cake again for a baby shower for me someday. Some far, far, far away day that is. Except I want teal shoes and a teal purse on mine :-) And then I'll get it again for you- what color shoes and purse do you want on yours?

  6. Agreed, that is the cutest cake ever!!! Sounds yummy too. I wish I could have heard Jason's nerdy voice at the murder mystery dinner. Can you add audio clips to your blog? ;)
