Long time no see....

Wow, a lot has happened since I last posted on my blog. I promise that I'm going to try and stay more updated than I have been recently....but life has been pretty busy...

So last time I wrote, I was talking about the cake I was doing for Jon's family reunion...The cake happened, and I have to admit, though it was difficult, I struggled through and the end cake looked pretty spectacular (If I do say so myself). The 1st and 3rd tiers had cornelli lace in a pacific blue color with red and white fondant. The middle tier (which I'm really proud of) had hand painted figures of people doing the tango. The topper consisted of roses, hydrangeas and hyacinths. I promise to post pictures as soon as I can locate my camera cord....its been hard to locate with all the packing.

...And why was I packing do you ask? Because I graduated with my Associates degree in baking and pastry on July 8th 2010. It was a very nice ceremony, and I'm pretty sure Devin has it all on video. I'm glad to have graduated, but I guess it isn't the biggest thing in the world, because I'll be graduating again with my Bachelors degree in just over a year and half. I will say that I'm psyched to never have to wear a neckerchief or a toque again...

My parents got me a sweeeeeeeeeeeeeet graduation present too...a 2001 pontiac grand prix. 2 door...and I've named it Jazz. Jon's car is named bumblebee (after the transformers car) so I thought that because mine is sportier...Jazz is a good fit.

And now summer has begun.... Jon and I have a really packed summer. We're currently in Lake Geneva, WI for roughly a week and a half to spend time with my family. After that, we're driving to Washington DC to spend a few days there so I can meet all of Jon's friends and to see the sites. I'm excited- I've never been to DC. After that, we are heading up to Ithaca NY to spend time with Jon's family. We have a lot of traveling on the way, but it should be a fun road trip.

Well, I think that is all for now. I'll try and post when we get to DC, and let you know how Lake Geneva went.
