cakes, frosting, and flowers oh my!

Alli & Jacob's wedding cupcakes!
i decided to practice the cupcakes and frosting today for the wedding. i think they turned out lovely! i tried using two liners so it would be a more bold white, but the outer layer just separated itself once it was cool. but i think it looks fine anyways. i also tried doubling up on the frosting. it looked beautiful, but used a TON of frosting. so instead, there is a dollop of frosting in the middle of this, with a spiral of frosting starting at the outer edge that builds up over the top of the dollop! oh yeah, alli wanted funfetti cake...so there you have it!
i bought my outfit for the wedding yesterday from j.crew. its a light greyish green blue short-sleeved sweater with a light orange silk tank top under it. i think i am just going to wear a light grey skirt and some pumps with it. the wedding colors are BROWN with various shades of white and then blues and other tropical colors (because she is having tropical flowers). notice i am not going to be wearing any BROWN. i love the color, but i'm BROWNED out. after my wedding, kersey's, julia's and now alli's... i think it's safe to say that i have had enough BROWN when it comes to weddings.
here are some fun clips of the boys today. the second one is boring at the beginning, but trust me, it is worth the wait!

that video of jack is hilarious! He looks so serious with his random and way hard core rocking out. Definitely his mama's son! Well done mama rocker!
