Our "friends thanksgiving" was a blast! The food was amazing!! I think everyone was pretty surprised at just how good it turned out. It was a great practice for one day when we're "real grown-ups" hosting holidays! I of course barely took any pictures but from the ones I did you can kind of see my new hair cut and of course K's birthday cake.
Me getting the cake ready- look at my short hair!

The Cake
Yes those are 2-7 candles- I failed and thought I had candles but I didn't so we had to use last years ! Oops!
I had the cake made by the bakery I work with for events. I made a collage of photos of K, us, and our friends from the past 6 years on Picasa (my new obsession!) and had them silkscreen the image on the cake. It's totally edible and was a huge hit and of course the cake was red velvet and absolutely delicious!
I'm still adjusting to having short hair- I feel very strange at the gym because I either have to do half up do or a mini pony tail which looks weird. It's probably just my crazy paranoia that people actually are judging my looks at 5:30am but then again I wear mascara to the gym so I'm probably the one with the problems.
I have also failed on my no caffeine mission. It lasted a whole 2 days, yes pathetic, but I have cut down to one drink a day instead of my normal 3. Which I think is a vast improvement and I think I can see a difference.
So happy tomorrow is Wednesday!
That cake idea is super cute! I'm glad it was a big hit!
ReplyDeleteLove the new hair, although when I did the post-wedding chop last year, I, too, had small pony paranoia at the gym. Bobby pins became my best friend. Don't worry. You'll get used to it.
ReplyDeleteYour hair looks great!
ReplyDeleteI adore your hair!!!
ReplyDeleteI do the same thing at the gym or when I am out running. At least when I run outside, I can cover my paintbrush of a ponytail up with a hat. I feel so ridiculous...
your hair looks so great! looks like you guys had a great time - love the cake!
ReplyDeleteI think your new hair cut looks so cute! And, don't worry about the posting. I promised to post pictures of my vacation (a month ago) and describe my adventures (3 weeks ago), and I still haven't gotten to it {a little late now}. I think we're all pretty forgiving of each other for getting lost away from the blogging world. Now if only we could be so forgiving of ourselves...
