Last weekend was my parent's 40th wedding anniversary. My Mom assigned me to make the cake! So I waited for inspiration to hit and by Friday I had a pretty good idea of how I wanted to make it. So I spent all night baking the cake and planning on how to create my masterpiece. Next morning I loaded the cake in the back of the van, and ran inside to get the decorations. (My plan was to frost and decorate once we got to SLC) When I came back out to the car this is what I saw:
Yes. I. Bawled.
So a quick call to my Mom and she was able to get a plain frosted cake from the store. It didn't taste as good as mine would have, but the decorations turned out pretty good.
The cake's theme was "40 Years of Married LIFE". My parents were married in 1972, had kids right away, had many car wrecks, watched the kids graduate, became grandparents, traveled all over the world, and for their 40th anniversary they saw the play Zorro. It turned out cute! I have a few ideas of how I would do it differently, but everyone understood it :)
Congrats Mom and Dad on 40 years of marriage! You may have never had it all together, but together you had it all!!! I love you! We love you!
