Father's Day Treats

This is totally late b/c I've had a LOT going on lately, but see below for my mom's 60th Birthday Bash!!!!!!

Happy Father's Day to my husband and my dad (poppy)!!!!!!!!

I each made them their fave treats:

Here are the cards that Zachary & I made for daddy.  It's hard to see it in this picture, but I spelled Les in pecans on top of the pecan pie before I baked it.  It was soo yummy and Les ate all of it except 1 piece that I actually got to enjoy!  :)

My dad asked for a coconut cream pie - I have to say, I out did myself on this pie.  It was so delicious and rich.  Everyone that had a piece was instantly IN LOVE with this pie!!!!!  I can't wait to make it again b/c it was so yummy.

Can I tell you something?!  I am IN LOVE with Paula Deen now!!!  LOL  I used her homemade coconut cream pie recipe and EVERYTHING was made from scratch including the whipped cream on top.  It was the BEST pie that I have put in my mouth & there were definitely NO complaints!!!!!!!!  Just asking for 2nd's.........HAHAHA

Once again, Happy Father's Day to all the dads out there - just know that you're appreciated more than just 1 day out of the year.  We love you, daddy & poppy!!!!!

June 25th

That day was actually this past Saturday and it was a Jesus Day!  My mom battled breast cancer again this past year & had to endure chemo this round - that was a 1st and we pray - the last time!

Well, June 25th was my mom's 60th B'day - Praise the Lord that we had her around to celebrate another b'day.  I know that I am so thankful for her & that God has given us more time with her. 

Here are just a few pictures from the BIG day!!!!!

Happy Birthday, Moochie!!!!!!!!!  I love you (more!).  :)

Here is the Birthday Girl w/ flowers that her brother, Larry, sent to her - they were absolutely BEAUTIFUL!!!

Here she is with the b'day cake that I made for her - it was a HUGE hit.

The bottom layer of the cake was choc cake with choc mousse and the top layer of the cake was a white cake with homemade raspberry filling.  YUMMO!!!

Here is the b'day girl with her sign that I made for her.  :)
