CAST 20 Year Anniversary

August 2013 marked the 20 year anniversary of a very special volunteer program in the City of Chula Vista called CAST--Citizens' Adversity Support Team.  My husband Wes and I are part of the crisis response team that goes out on calls where there is a sudden death, suicide, car accident, SIDS, fire, or domestic violence.  We walk the families through the next steps on their worst possible day.  Emerald Randolph was the founder of this program and continues to lead it with strength and compassion.  Mayor Cheryl Cox gave a proclamation to Emerald for her outstanding service to the Chula Vista community through CAST.

London's 1st Birthday Cupcake Cake

Baby London turned one!  I was asked to make the "destroyer cake" with a cupcake theme.  London enjoyed squishing the frosting in her hands rather than eating it.  She's so adorable!  I just love this whole family!
