Cheers

One of my friends and coworkers, Stacey, ordered a batch of cookies last month. Both her kids go to a local private school. Her daughter is on the cheer leading squad and they were having their end of the season banquet. She wanted to treat the girls with something special. And what's more special and delicious than cookies! I sent her some ideas and she decided to do cheer uniforms.

In my flurry of work I only got one picture, sorry. But its a good one!


I added each girl's name to the bottom of the skirt for a very personal touch. The girl's loved them! 

Ciao!

Birthday Cookies

My grandmother is so beautiful. Not only on the outside but on the inside as well. She is patient and kind, some of my best memories in life are with her.


Old picture and a little blurry but you can see how lovely she is!

This month she turned 82! So over Labor Day weekend the whole family went to see her and celebrate. I was trying to come up with a gift to bring her but she's pretty difficult to shop for. So instead I decided to make her a batch of cookies for her party. 

My grandmother loves to be outside, her yard always has beautiful plants and flowers. I wish I had inherited her green thumb! So I decided a flower theme would be perfect for these cookies.




 I'm so thankful for my grandmother and I hope to spend many more Birthdays with her!

Ciao!

Harper Grace is One!

Crazy to think that a year goes by so fast. My beautiful niece just celebrated her first birthday last weekend. She is truly a blessing in my life. She's silly, smart and unstoppable! Which makes her so fun to hang out with.

My sister-in-law planned a lovely party for her. The theme was shabby chic. All her little friends were there as well as family. I did a batch of cookies for favors and was the designated birthday photographer. Here are the cute cookies and some of my favorite pictures from the party.




Her beautiful and yummy rosette cake and mini smash cake came for Sugar Kneads in Loganville, GA
You can find them {Here}






Her adorable friend Julia, what a sweetheart she is!

Deidra, Class of 2014

My sister-in-law is a Senior! Life just keeps zooming right along doesn't it? She asked me a few weeks ago to take her Senior pictures for her. I was honored that she trusted me to do those for her and excited to get some creative, fun shots.

We started out in downtown Canton, GA where they have some great old building, trees and parks. Then we went to a small lake. We wanted to do some creative stuff with sidewalk chalk so we went home to do those. Finally, we ventured out to the waterfalls near her home to splash around and have some fun.

And here are some of my favorites.















Congratulations Dee! I love you to pieces and I'm so proud of you.

Ciao!

Nurse Scrub Cookies

Wow, can I just say that this has been the craziest summer of my life. Never has there been so much going on and so little time to do it. But before all of the intensity of the summer, I got the chance to celebrate my sister-in-law's graduation from Emory University School of Nursing. Alisha is absolutely brilliant and graduated with honors. The are so proud of her!

Her last semester, she did rotations and wanted to thank all the nurses on her floor for their mentorship. So she ordered a batch of cookies :)



Her fellow classmates loved them so much they ordered some as well, for their nurse mentors and for graduation parties.



What a great way to express love and appreciation for people who work so hard to care for others day in and day out. We love our nurses!

Ciao!

Lovely Lace Cookies

Last month, my friend Maria over at The Yancey House asked me to do cookies for a Valentine Tea Party. She sent me a clipping from a magazine of some beautifully styled cookies. They were tremendously detailed and delicate. I was thrilled with the challenge of doing them and they turned out absolutely gorgeous. Maria handed out the cookies to her guests at the Tea and got rave reviews for them. One of her guests contacted me about a week later to see if I could do a similar concept for a wedding shower she was hosting. Their theme was lace and burlap and the colors were blush and cream, which was so inspiring for me. I have to say ya'll I think these may be my best cookies yet!

Welcome to the World Carson Fisher!

My friend Jessica finally had her sweet baby boy Carson just a little more than a week ago. He has a really cool birth date 3/13/13! I got the chance to go visit their family while they were in the hospital. I took my camera with me to capture some of the excitement. Here are some of my favorites.










Congratulations Zach and Jessica, I love you and your baby boy!
