Roses for Gianna

October 11, 2012 by Jodi 3 Comments

“Mama, I want a rose birthday.”

Sure, Gianna. 

When you don’t know what you are doing, always ask for help from someone who does. So, thank you, Carrie, for making and tinting buttercream frosting with me. Then showing me how to craft these confections.  You just helped me earn my Wonderwoman badge for another year in the eyes of my daughter.
