Comin' Up Roses...

Well, we graduated! Our final cake decorating class was last night and we survived and were walking out of the classroom at 8:35! We were still the last ones out, but we didn't shut Michael's down. We got a certificate and everything. I'm not gonna lie, I think we've improved! Week 1 we were just getting our feet wet. Week 2 we got in the pool and this week I'd like to think we did a back flip off the diving board. Maybe I should have graduated drama 101 instead of cake decorating 101. The big reveal is below, but first....allow me to explain my creation.

For those of you who know me, this will come as no surprise. For those of you that don't....here's a little background info. I graduated from Texas A&M, class of 2003....Whoop. I grew up a huge Longhorn fan....Hook'Em. I married a Red Raider....I can't even go there. Our kids will be totally and completely confused. Although game days can be interesting and my loyalties can change depending on who is in a race for the Roses there is one constant....I hate ou. :)

When we found out we would be learning roses in our final cake decorating class (just 101...there are still 3 more "levels" of classes) I began to think about my design. I needed to incorporate the roses...I'm excited about football season starting.....ding-ding-ding....the light bulb went off. One week from tomorrow the Race for the Roses begins and you know who I want to be standing in the end....

And Bradley's final masterpiece! Her roses were awesome!
