This is a bit late, but here are a few pics. from Adi's 3rd b-day the end of Feb. We had just a few people over, and had a "princess" party. The past year, Adison has been into dressing up, and all the princess/"married" dresses and characters. Her mother tried to stear clear of the whole Disney princess scene, but it became matter over mind. That battle was lost....:) We did it. We threw a pink and purple party. Tinkerbell was last year, so that couldn't save us this year. :)
Robyn attempted cake fondant for the first time, thinking it would be easy. Not quite. Even with Shea's help, she ended up nearly throwing the entire cake away after hours of many failed attempts. With the final attempt, and thoughts of ordering an ice cream cake from DQ, the cake turned out edible. (I said "edible." Not pretty. Or at least what it was supposed to look like in my perfectionist and yet scattered mind.) With the pink and purple sherbert, all was well. Betty Crocker's cream cheese frosting underneath the fondant, saved everyone from having to eat the rubber layer, although Shea actually "liked" the fondant. Go figure...I suppose maybe it was a good thing I flavored it...:)
This was before everyone arrived...
Corben became a "camo-princess" in due time..
Great cake! It looks so cute and I'm sure Adison loved it. =) Your kids are adorable. Happy Belated Birthday, Adison!!
ReplyDeleteI'm so impressed by the cake! You've inspired me. Maybe I'll take on the task for Elizabeth's first birthday. --Heidi F.
ReplyDeleteI have the same dilema with my kids. They love everything girly and princessy. We walk a fine line of princess without too much Disney slant :) Congrats on the cake!
ReplyDeleteThey look so cute! She is getting so big!
ReplyDeleteThank you! (Everyone...)
ReplyDeleteHeidi, you should do it! You would do a great job! You have lots of experience in the food dept., or so I recall...:)
Havilah, Adi has some definate tomboy qualities, but...girls are just girls I guess. lol
