The cutest lion

Walton (my nephew) turned 1 last week!! How exciting is that?? He's getting huge, walking around like mad, and eating everything in site (I'm so proud of him). I had to wait to post these so I didn't ruin the surprise of what I made him!

Meet Mr. Lion - dance lion dance!!!


and Mr. Monster. A-freaking-DORABLE


Mr Lion came from a book my roommate bought... the monster started as the alligator pattern from that same book... until I decided I no longer wanted to make an alligator... hence Mr Monster!

  9. Yes - I love the bundt cake scene from My Big Fat Greek Wedding!! :-) I always think of it every time I make a bundt cake too... One of these days I want to serve a bundt cake with a flower in the middle, just in honor of that scene. :-) *giggles*
