This is my daughter's birthday cake from her 13th birthday last weekend. The cake was made by my wife and daughter and is made of layers of ice cream and cake (and it was delicious!)!
I now am the father of two teenage girls - and feeling a little bit older than I did last week!!!

I hope that I can become a better photographer with the examples here on Am3 and by getting your feedback on my images.
Please give me your constructive comments - I do appreciate your input!
I may not be able to reply to each of your comments - but they mean a lot to me and I thank you!
I am on vacation now and do not have access to the internet, so I cannot thank you for your comments or comment on your images - I will try to catch up when I get back. Thanks!
So that is what I've got....splendor! That does look good Chris!

@Craiger: Yes, my "splendor" started coming in when I was 23!!
Yum, tasty cake - and now you have two teenagers to deal with, all I can say is 'good luck'. I just have one teen to deal with, my son, and can sympathize.

@Richard_Irwin: Well, even though I am sure my two teenage girls will give me a few more gray hairs, for the most part they are good kids and I am truly blessed to have them. I will miss my eldest next year when she goes off to college....
Mmm, cake. I like the colors, lines, and shapes.

Have I told you that your wife's a 'keeper'? <grin> Now you're outnumbered by THREE 'women' ........ hang onto your hat!

@Judy: yes Judy, I think you have mentioned that before ;-) Check out her blog and leave a comment there if you get a chance - she is always looking for input on her art and what she has to say....
Not only do I have three women in the house, our dog is a girl also!!!

@Jen: Ice cream cake is the best - and this one combined ice cream and cake! (I think my wife is going to blog the directions on how to make this on her blog in the next few days).
Thanks for your feedback!
Did you save any for your blog friends? Looks delicious. And Happy Birthday wishes to your daughter!

Wow! I've not seen an Ice cream cake before :) it certainly looks and sounds like it was delicious. Birthday greetings to your daughter.

Yum!! Fabulous looking cake. I understand feeling older. I have one child, a son, 18, a freshman in college. The teen years were no more difficult that any other years, just different. It was, and is, a joy to see him maturing into an adult.

@Anita: Our oldest will start college in the fall - very strange to see them grow up....
