Cake Decorating

I made this cake for Emily's teacher's birthday. Emily was really excited about her teacher's birthday and wanted to do something special. I remembered back when I was in Elementary and my mom would always make a cake for my teacher's on their birthday. So, I decided to try a cake. It was a lot of fun! Now I am looking for other opportunities to do a cake! I am making a scouting cake tomorrow for Trent to take to a court of honor and I am going to make a cake next week for Logan's teacher. I will take pictures of them and post them here. Hopefully they will turn out, but I am really excited to try.

Star Wars

Logan got this cool Star Wars spaceship for his birthday from Grandma Newbold. It took him several hours to get it all put together, but he did it all by himself and it looked really cool when he was finished! It even has a little Darth Vader sitting in it (I am not sure if you can see it though).

Pirate Party

We just had a swashbuckling party for Logan complete with a Treasure Hunt to find the buried belonging of "One Eyed Willie." The kids were outfitted in Pirate props complete with a pirate name. (Logan - Cap'n Logan Flint, Emily - Maiden Emily, Dustin - Dry Bone Dustin) I think all of the kids had a good time and I had fun planning it, but it is sure nice that it is over with. Kids have so much energy and excitement! I was so tired after it was over. Grandma Jackson made him this cool Pirate Cake. Well, I guess I will just regroup and start planning a Western Cowboy Party for Dustin. If anyone has any cute ideas, let me know!
