Madison: 14 layer torte cake


I taught the girls how to make Grandma Jeanne's 14 layer torte cake. It is a Hill tradition that I have taught to the girls of the family. I know that's sexist but that's how it has happened.
Katie once baked one and shipped it to Uncle John in Idaho...that's just how much our family loves this cake. It takes about 3 hours to make the cake. The girls really hung in there and did most of the work!

Heading to Madison


On the plane to Madison. Note the brand new vest...a Christmas gift! There are Uggs on her feet too. You just can't see them.

Christmas

We flew to Chicago and headed up to Madison, Wisconsin on Christmas day. We had a WONDERFUL five days with my brother Dan. J used the trip as the topic of her latest writing piece in school. When it is finished I will post it so you will know everything we did. Pictures coming soon!
