Giant Cupcake

Well, we're still waiting for the baby. I have been having a lot of contractions, but they are just practice ones and they aren't painful or frequent yet. It's kind of morbid that I'm wishing for pain. I'm pretty sure I'll be regretting it soon enough. In the mean time Ryan and I are just working and trying to see as many movies as possible per your suggestions. We're also sleeping as much as possible, and will hopefully fit in a trip to the temple tomorrow night. I'm a little nervous about this cause I know as soon as we get there I'll go into labor, but we're risking it.

We don't have anything else very exciting to update you all on, so I will post some old pictures. A few weeks ago my sisters and I got together to hang out and make goodies. My sister Julie had purchased a giant cupcake pan from Williams-Sonoma and we decided to try it out. This is the picture on the front of the packaging.



We decided to make a coconut cream cupcake. Ours did not look quite as nice as the picture on the packaging. It was kind of a disaster.



Once it was frosted and we took the picture from a certain angle it didn't look too bad, but still not even close to the picture.



It tasted amazing, though. I loved the flavor and am probably going to try making the cake again in a normal pan. We tried our luck with the giant cupcake again a bit later for my brother Bret's birthday. It looked a little better, but still not a success. We're going to have to work to perfect our giant cupcake making skills.




And here's a picture of Dallin, who was there for all of the experimenting, but didn't get to eat any of it. He didn't look too happy about it. What do you think, though, will his eyes be brown or blue? I'm thinking blue.
