"First came love, then came marriage, soon there will be a baby in the carriage!!!"

Katherine's cousin, Katie, is having a baby in January!! Here are the pictures of the invitations we made for her baby shower as well as the cut-out cookies decorated to look like the carriage on the invites. Katie's baby shower was great - can't wait to find out if the baby is a boy or a girl!!!

The fabric "carriages" were machine sewed onto the cardstock and buttons were glued on for the "wheels."

Once again - our gk cut-out cookies made the flight down south. We only had 1 cookie break on the trip to New Orleans!

Guests took home cookies as favors - tags were attached to the ribbon with the boy and girl names picked out for the baby!

Lindsay & Ben's Wedding Cookies

We made cut-out cookies for Lindsay and Ben's wedding this past weekend. The teal icing matched the bridesmaid dresses and other wedding details perfectly! Cookies were in the shapes of hearts, squares, diamonds, and circles...each with an "M" for the couple's last name! Congratulations to the beautiful bride and groom!!!

"As Time Goes By" Clock Cookies

Katherine's "Granddaddy" celebrated his 90th birthday this past weekend in Marble Falls, TX!! We were more than happy to make cookies to go along with the party theme - "As Time Goes By."

The clock hands were all "set" to 1:45 - Granddaddy's birth time!

The cookies were given as prizes, along with the wrapped bottles of champage!

Blue & Green Baby Shower!

Our friends Seth & Kelly are getting ready to welcome their new baby boy, so we threw a couples shower to get them ready!

The invites....

Backyard decor, which doubled as our gift to the mommy and daddy!

Hand-stamped napkins:)

Centerpieces - the flowers were cut from Gwen's front yard!!

White and chocolate cupcakes topped with our miniature cut-out cookies in 4 different animal shapes - lions, zebras, giraffes, and elephants "oh my!!"

The favors - clear boxes filled with M&Ms and our miniature cut-out cookies

Ice Cream Cone Cookies

Katherine made ice cream cone cookies for her students before summer break. These cookies were very time intensive, but it was well worth the work!!

Dragonfly Cookies

Two of our friends put on a charity golf tournament this weekend to benefit the March of Dimes. Our dragonfly cookies were included in the golfers' goody bags - the lime green and teal royal icing matched the bags perfectly!!

Easter Cookies

Cut-out cookies for an Easter party. The gk cut-out recipe went through a rigorous taste-testing process (which our husbands thoroughly enjoyed). We now feel that we have a winning cookie/icing combination! :) We must thank Mrs. E (Katherine's mother-in-law) and Mrs. K for the recipes!
