I can't remember the last time I made a birthday cake and iced it. I make cakes but not usually on this scale. I am really pleased with it. She and Jenny are with their dad this afternoon, so it gave me an opportunity to get it sorted.
Its Jennys birthday (!*!!) in two weeks and we are having a get together here of family and friends. She tells me she wants me to make her birthday cake - a replica of her 1st birthday cake:
The reason I have a picture of her 1st b'day is because I have made her an album for her 18th. I started scanning old photos back in the summer and uploading them to Truprint and back they came to me as duplicate photos.
I am so pleased with the album - its a scrap book all about her 1st 18 years. I still have some pages to go and have been putting it together whenever she goes out to parties at the weekend etc. I will take some pics tonight (she is out again!) and upload them.
oh - no studying today, but I did finish wallpapering the bathroom and completely blitzing the garden. Time for a large glass of something I think!
That`s the second time I`ve had a lump in my throat reading blogs today...seeing your baby girl`s cake. Happy Birthday to Beccy and save a slice for me!
ReplyDeleteYOu have a busy birthday time, great idea to make the scrapbook photo album, Jenny will love it I am sure. (My Jenny was officially Jennifer too but never got the whole name unless she was naughty!Jenn --i--fferr!!)
ReplyDeleteExcellent cake! Happy Birthday to Beccy!
ReplyDeleteYour cakes look amazing. I'm not that good at decorating cakes so I tend to leave that to my 2 eldest daughters. I hope you have wonderful Birthdays with your daughters.
ReplyDeleteGreat cake! And good luck duplicating the first birthday cake. I couldn't do that duck at all! Hope the birthday sleepover went well and that you aren't too exhausted. Great idea for Jenny's gift too. I may be copying you in a few years to come.
