Abigail turns 3!

Abigail's birthday was an anticipated event by the 3 members of our family. I have wanted to learn how to better make cakes and decorate them for quite a few years now. It is just something that I think is fun and amazing. I haven't been able to get into a class yet so I got online and checked out a ton of books from the library on cakes and decorating. I started a few days before and tried my hand at fondant. I was pretty pleased with how it turned out considering it being my first cake. Abigail had made a final decision on a ballerina barbie cake so here it is.....
Daddy took her out for a lunch date and when she came home the cake was finished. I love her face in this picture because you can't tell that she likes the cake at all :)
the finshed prize!
Patiently waiting for the party to start.


Abigail loves to dance so Mommy and Daddy got her a new pair of ballet slippers. She also got a scooter, helmut and pads, a play horse, books, a teddy bear, earrings and rings, her first pair of leggings, a school dress, some candy, money and I am sure I am forgetting something! Thanks everyone who contributed and participated in Abigail's birthday this year. She loves you all so very much!
