A Cake Massacre.

I had big hopes for a cake I found.  It appeared to be pretty simple but- IT WASN'T!  Halfway through I was screaming for Corey's architectural help!  He came in- he helped- he ran to the store for more icing to "patch things up"...but by the time he returned the cake had flopped.  Dang it! 

Thank goodness for the extra cake I made we were able to do somewhat of a festive cake...just not the flag surprise I had imagined!  I used Bri's secret recipe...and the cake tasted much better than it looked and that's all that seemed to matter in the end.
