Kathy’s Sweet Life

Because I was born on Groundhog Day, I’ve always received the cutest birthday cards with notes reflecting the cute little critter who makes this day so special! I even remember years ago, my sweet sister Jen bought me the cutest little birthday cake that had a little groundhog on top, made out of a cupcake. So I asked my family if I could make my own cake this year, celebrating the little groundhog that has always made me feel extra special on my birthday! 😁
Here’s to another Groundhog Day, and may he never see his shadow again!

For her birthday, my daughter requested a Lambeth style pistachio cake - pistachio cake, filled with pistachio ganache, and frosted with pistachio buttercream!
So much love and gratitude for my best girl, my best friend! God has truly blessed me with you! Happy birthday dear Bethany!
Love you always and forever! 😘❤️

Our daughter-in-law loves lavender & lemon and Rifle Paper Company, so what better way to celebrate her than with a lavender & lemon traced buttercream cake!
Happy birthday Sara. We love you and are so thankful that God brought you to our family!

My niece loves sunflowers and is so talented at needle art! Her family wanted to celebrate her birthday and I couldn’t think of a more perfect way to do so than to incorporate these two loves!

Have a wonderful birthday dear Bri! God’s blessings on you always as you use the gifts he’s given you! 💛🌻💛

I had a request for a beachy cake that included red wine, flip flops and an aqua drip! Since the beach and all things tropical are some of my favorites too, I had so much fun with this one! The wine glasses and wine bottles are made out of edible sugar 😊
Hoping you had a wonderful birthday Vicky! 🏝️ 🍷 🩴🩴 ☀️

My dear, sweet Iris Kathleen turned 7 and wanted to celebrate her birthday with her favorite kitties, Sugar, Muffin and Fireball. She loves all animals but has a special place in her heart for these special friends of hers!
Happy birthday, my sweet girl! You are so loved and are a treasure from God! Our prayers surround you, for His blessings and guidance always!

Happy birthday Jeremy! Hoping you enjoyed the overload of chocolate and peanut butter in your cake! 😋
You are a blessing to us and we thank God for you! ❤️

My niece is one of the kindest and most encouraging people I known. She is so thoughtful and has such a love for family.
Some of her favorite things are chocolate, blue skies, sunshine and hot air balloons, so I made this cake to celebrate her!
Happy birthday sweet Kerry! I hope you know how much I love you! ❤️

I made this cake for a 90th birthday celebration! Carrot cake with cheesecake bites and cinnamon apple crunch with homemade apple pie filling.
Happy birthday, Ellen! Wishing you God’s blessings today and always! 🩷

A tribute to my son, as he and his dad lead a Bible, Bourbon and Cigar Men’s group every week in our home!
I am so proud of you Luke and couldn’t be more blessed by you!
Your birthday is a wonderful time to remind you how much you’re loved! 💙

Sunflowers have always been my dear mother-in-laws favorite flower and I always think of her when I see one. So for her birthday this year, I surprised her with her own little cake with 3D buttercream sunflowers!
Happy birthday mom! You are such a beautiful blessing to each of us and we thank God for you!
