new birthday cakes

Well- here are Kindy and Cash's B-day cakes! Kindy wanted a soccer ball and I thought, "no problem." But then I looked up a picture on the internet and made a pentagon stencil and started marking the fondant....the pentagons didn't fit together right so I kept trying different things all day and then I gave up and did a few black and white and then made the back of the ball a goal. After I was finnished I noticed that there are black pentagons, and the white ones are hexagons....I was ready to scream by that point so I just added the last few things and stepped away from the cake.
Then was Cash's- he wanted a basketball and it was so much better than the soccer ball. No stress, just fun. I added the score board to say the happy bday stuff and his age-11 and had him beating his sister who likes to mother him....I think he liked that.

Halloween 09!

This year Lila was Tinkerbell, Abby was a monkey and Hali was a butterfly! I tried to paint a sparkly mask on Hali's face but when she looked in the mirror she told me it didn't look cute and she wanted it washed off so this is her after the washings....it didn't all come off. Abby loved her costume and she looked so cute with her little bowlegged walk. Lila loves to be pretty and sparkly so Tinkerbell was perfect! We had a trunk or treat at the school on Friday night and a carnival....it was freezing outside. Then on Halloween Crea took the girls around and I stayed home to hand out the candy so the girls got to dress up twice! Hali told me that she wanted to have Halloween again today....we all had fun!

Pumpkins and Spaghetti!

Thursday the 29th was pumpkin carving night and Mel and the girls came over to carve 'em up! When Crea got home he made us all spaghetti so we could keep carving! Hali reached in her pumpkin ONCE, said, "It's slikery" and wouldn't touch it again.... Abby enjoyed gathering up all the fallen seeds and sucking on them.... and Lila wanted to do it all herself. Fun night!
