The girls and their July birthdays....

July is the girl's month.  Both of the girls have birthdays in July.  Sydney's birthday is the 8th and Audrianna's was yesterday.  I made two new cakes this month that I haven't ever made before.  So, it was definitely an exciting month.  Who doesn't love cake?? 

On Sydney's 15th birthday, I made an Angel Food cake from scratch.  It turned out very yummy, but not very pretty.  Here is Sydney with her angel food cake. 

  
Here is the recipe that we used for the angel food cake.  It came from my Better Homes & Garden's cookbook.  The only thing that we adjusted is that we make our own powdered sugar.  Powdered sugar that you buy contains cornstarch, and with corn allergies in our family.  We make homemade powdered sugar, which is very simple.  
 

These pictures were taken in the afternoon of Sydney's birthday, when had a photo shoot to capture her at a new age.  She was excited, which is always helpful.  

My beautiful Sydney on her 15th birthday!
