Let Them Eat Cake!

We are throwing Price's 1st birthday / our going away party this weekend. Due to all that has been going on in our life recently (garage sale, visits from the in-laws, trip to PA, all of us being sick, moving to Guam), I have been compartmentalizing. I am dealing with each thing completely and moving on to the next item on my list once the previous item has been completed. Thus, I am kind of far behind in preparing for the party.

I am slowly catching up. The invitations were sent out a few weeks ago, RSVPs are returning (we're currently expecting about 40 folks), the decorations are purchased (shout out to Big Lots!, for once again having exactly what I was looking for at exactly the right price). The menu is starting to fall into place (in my mind). But I need to make a decision about a cake...

I feel torn about what to do! Should I buy this cake....

Or make a cake similar to this one...


Don't let the size of the pictures fool you! I know the professional one is cuter and would be easier on my life, but I also really like the idea of making Price's cake. My besties would probably laugh and tell me to go with the professional cake. They, like me, would hate for the cake to end up on Cake Wrecks. But I really think I could do it. If I bake the cakes Wednesday, freeze them, ice /decorate on Saturday- then we'd be good to go. What do you think? So far, I'm undecided and I have 1 vote for professional (the vote of a logical husband who knows me all too well).

I'll keep you posted!
