Good luck all! GO NJ!!! 

OH MY!! I can't even imagine the horror that you must have gone through when this happened. What did you do? Did they have a cake (a quick Costco run??)![]()
I was following in the car behind and I basically screamed out loud when I saw the cake move. I had not assembled the top layer yet so it was the two base layers that hit the seat.
By the time I had reached the reception hall I had regained my composure. I took a deep breath and approached the back of the car. It was not too bad just some slight denting and a little tilt. I had used fondant as the frosting so I figured I could try to repair the damage.
Well great idea but everyone else was all freaked out!This was the night before the wedding and the cake was to sit at the hall until the reception the next afternoon. I wanted to go ahead and assemble the cake.
The bottom layers were very secured with wooden dowels and although the fondant had a dent in it, I was certain that the foundation was good enough to hold the top layer.
DH and DD decided, behind my back BTW,to not allow me to put on the top tier. They said they figured that a wedding cake in two pieces was better than a cake crashed to the floor. I literally threw a fit but to no avail. They won and the cake stayed in two pieces. I hated it but guests said it was lovely!
Here a few picks of it. It is not perfect but it was certainly made with love and tasted divine!
It looks small in the pics but the top layers were 14" cakes. The bottoms were 16" and 18". Here colors were lavender and yellow so I did ribbon weaving into the base layers. It was fun to do but just too much emotion involved in doing it for a daughter!

Has anyone heard from Missy lately? Does anyone know how she is doing?
Hi.... I've just been sort of lurking around here lately... getting hungry for a dole whip!
I'm doing ok, I have the mammogram scheduled for Thursday and then go to see the surgeon on Nov 10th- why, in heaven's name, it takes 14 days for me to get to the surgeon after the mammogram, I have no clue. Anyone have any ideas? I'm trying to keep it together, stay busy at work, and stay busy with a very crazy 2 year old, who is mad at me because I had to cancel our disney trip this weekend- keeps yelling, "I wanna see Nemo at Ett-cot!" I was hoping to make food & wine this year, but, alas, it will have to wait.
In other crazy mommy news, I managed to get Gemma all the way to daycare before I realized I had put her shoes on the wrong feet... so she was was shuttled back to the car for a quick change so her teacher didn't think I was a total basketcase. Sigh. These days I'm doing good to get us both fed, dressed, and out the door in the mornings!
Thanks for caring, guys... as I said before, it's great to be part of such a loving caring community!

We sat in front of the school and he still refused to get dressed.
Yeah. I had the naked kid in Pre-K.
Here is the Day Three Waiting Day question:
If you could make one change to anything in Walt Disney World what would it be?
Yesterday went to the dr. and found out I had pnuemoia. Took my meds when I got home and tried to rest and sleep. Went to work today and man, not a good idea! Wish I was home under the covers!!!
I would have them STOP building hotels and start adding more to the parks! Ok, is that two things? They keep adding hotel rooms but the parks have not gotten larger so we are more and more crowded. We need room in the parks!

I know of another Mom who went through this with her DD, the not wanting to wear clothes thing, and it makes me curious (not having any of my own.)
Is this something all little ones go through? I wonder what this is all about?

Also, I sure hope there's no swimsuit competition for the Moms panel, not to mention a ballroom gown one.
