Let there be chocolate cake!

I thought it was time for a new picture of Alex and me (since we were looking nice for church anyway).  Our anniversary is in August and birthdays in September.  We didn't do anything big to celebrate, but we had plenty of cake!  We had cake with Alex's family when we were there in August, and my family had cake for me when I flew to TX in September.  I made a cake for Alex's birthday, and our home teacher from church brought over a HUGE cake the afternoon of my birthday (Alex got off easy...)  The cake was too big for our family to eat, so I decided to get some friends together at the last minute to help us eat the cake.  

 14 years together!  We got married in 2000 - it's easy to remember how many years.  


We celebrated my uncle Doug's birthday too.  Chocolate cake - YUMMY!

My birthday this year was a memorable one.  Luckily we had plenty of sweets on my birthday - we literally had a stinkin' morning, since our dog got sprayed by a skunk just outside our open window.  The whole house smelled bad for a couple of days with the stench.  (We took the cake over to a friend's house to celebrate where it didn't smell!)  

We got to shop for a new cage for the dog that morning, so she could sleep inside again at night, and gave her a special bath.  The day could only get better from there, and it did.
