Friday Jim and I drove to Alpharetta to help Dawn prepare for Sara's first Birthday party. On Friday Dawn and I pulled things together and completed the cakes for Sara's party. The theme was a "Ladybug Picnic" so we made Ladybug cakes. This was the first time we had tried to use "Fondant" to ice cakes and it worked out very well. It was not as hard as I thought it would be to work with the Fondant. Jimmy "bonded" with Sara that day as he kept her busy while we worked on the cakes. She became quite a "Grandpa's girl".
This is the Ladybug cake we made. We fixed one cake for everyone and a separate cake for Sara, as well as some cupcakes.
Big brother, Sean, also wished Sara a Happy Birthday.
Here is Mommy and Sara. No matter who is around Mommy is always Sara's favorite person by far.
Here are Dawn, Sara, Kim and Caleb. What a happy group.
This is Sara playing with her new toys. No need to take them out of the box.
