The Bakery Saga Continues...

I finally got around to putting together some more photo's of the progress we've made on the shop. In some very good news, Friday was Opening Day!! After a lots of hard work the Carrabelle Bakery (Cakes By Amy) is NOW OPEN!! Soon to come is a web site... Once the Website is online and up and running I will provide the link here.

This collection of photos is basically what the shop looks like now. With a few minor changes such as we have added Lot's of shelves, and there have been some minor re-arrangements in the kitchen.

So, what are you waiting for... Come on by and see us! :)

The Bakery Saga Begins....

We have not been very good at taking great photos of our progress on getting the bakery prepared, but I figured I'd throw together some slide shows of what we have done so far.

First we have the beginning...

Next we have our current progress up to now...

What we are missing is the wonderful 2-5 days of mudding and tapping that Amy did. It would have made a hilarious pic too since she came home each day looking like Casper the ghost..

Bobby's Toy Box

This weekend we decided that the son needed a toy box that was not made from cardboard. Since our son likes to crawl into the cardboard boxes and they eventually fall apart and thus toys end up filling the entire room to the point where it is impossible to actually walk into the room. Our solution? Convert the entire bottom portion of the closet into 1 big toy box.

The top of the toy box has 1 inch foam covered in fabric we found at wal-mart. Because the lid is rather heavy at this point, my next step will be to add an actuator and/or gas springs to the lid so it won't smash little fingers. Trust me it feels like a 50lb hammer when this happens. All and all I think it turned out pretty good.
