Happy Birthday to my little girl, actually the first of my 3 girls.  Theresa turned 6 yesterday.  Though the weather was yucky wet, we made the most of it with all kinds of stuff to celebrate her birthday.

Her first request was for a Sponge Bob cake.  I made her brother a cake for his birthday, and she told me then she wanted Sponge Bob for hers.

I drew it looking at a picture from the balloon we got her.

Since we weren't planning on a big birthday party we decided to bring in snacks at school to celebrate.  Theresa also asked me to make for each of her classmates a crayon roll.  I made one for my son the other day out of extra fabric from another project and she wanted one too.  So I did, 29 of them, as that's how many are in her class.

Here's a sample of one:
And all rolled up:

Stay tuned, I'll be putting up a tutorial this weekend to celebrate Easter.

Happy Birthday Theresa!Pin It

7 Years Old!  My oldest is 7 today, time sure flies.  I don't know where it all went, it feels like it just whizzed by me.

I made and decorated a cake for him - egg/milk/nut free, because he's allergic to peanuts, tree nuts and sesame seeds, and we just found out my youngest is also allergic to peanuts and eggs!  But good thing for the internet, I found a recipe for chocolate cake to suit everybody.
He wanted an airplane nose art, like the ones on WWII planes.  His first choice was a Betty in a red bathing suit next to the American flag, my husband got him to change his mind and find something a little more suiting.  So he chose Thumper, though he's never seen Bambi.  And it turned out pretty cool and he loved it.

And yes, I spent one or two summers as a teenager working in a bakery.  Maybe I should take some Wilton Decorating classes.Pin It
