Sunshine, on my shoulder.

Sometimes makes me cry.  But, that was only because I was looking at it through my viewfinder on my camera to get these beautiful shot of the sunrise, yesterday morning.  Since seeing the sunrise from my front yard is pretty much impossible due to all the trees.  I embarked on a 15 minute journey to go around my neighborhood and down the street to find some nice spots, but the sun is tricky.  Sometimes while driving to find that perfect spot, the sun rises without you.  Luckily that didn't happen to me...........this time.

This would be perfect, if it wasn't for the power lines.

But the color can't be beat.

Officially the best picture of the day.

On a side note, the younger and I did our most extravagant cake to date this weekend.  A two tier green and orange zebra cake.  I only had three meltdowns while making it.  Once when one of the 12" cakes came out of the pan in about 37 pieces, and then when I ruined not one, but TWO batches of frosting from over whipping and curdling.  After all was said and done, it came out beautifully, and the birthday girl was ecstatic when she saw it.  Mission accomplished.

We loved making this cake.

Now, if y'all will excuse me, I'm going to take the kid to school , and enjoy the fact that The Mister, went back to bed and I might just get some alone time to do some things, I want to get done for myself instead of someone else.  

Later Gators!
