Finally Done!

*notice the cake is in the refrigerator (I can't take it out)---I have never made a cake in August here in Texas....whenever I took the cake out it began melting immediately--crazy! *I told Keri she may want to serve the cake from the fridge---or serve it in bowls....gotta love Texas summers!!


About a week ago I was talking with a good friend of mine, Keri, and she was facing some hard times. Her husband and mother-in-law were getting surgery and to top it off her daughter was turning 5 at the end of the week! I wanted to help her out but wasn't sure how so when I found out she was about to order a cake for her daughter's birthday party I thought I could lean a hand! Now I haven't been doing cakes long and really only make them for family birthdays but I knew this would be a way I could help them save money and time. I began Monday thinking I could slowly make the cake in stages--well pretty much you can try but really the night before you always end up cramming! I finally finished tonight with help from Greg--thanks honey--and I think it turned out great! --of course it's always hard to look at your own cake because you see all the flaws but over all I like it;)
What do you think Mom?? (I posted this one for you--love you)

OH-I forgot to explain the cake--it's a horse theme party so that's a little horse on the top and horseshoes behind him--hope you were able to figure that out yourself....if not I'm in trouble:)
