Well, today was the BIG day at the Goodes!
Miss Add’s 3rd Birthday Party…
A Very Veggie Birthday Party that is… with a little Toy Story thrown in… to boot 😉
More on all of the festivities in a future post… for now, let’s check out the cake.
Mommy directed while MeMaw executed the coolest birthday cake ever!
Addie decided MONTHS ago that she wanted a Bob birthday cake and that Mommy should have a Larry birthday cake, while Daddy should have a Junior birthday cake.
So since Addie and Mommy’s birthdays are just two days apart, we had a Bob and Larry cake and made cupcakes…
Cupcakes that included… a cupcake just for Daddy…
Junior was just one of the clay charms I have been working on for a month now…
You can check out the making of Bob and Larry here
You can find the making of Madame Blueberry, Junior, Jean Claude, Philly and the “Happy Birthday” here.
Miss Add LOVED that she could play with the charms after the cupcakes were done.
I am so glad that I opted to make them out of clay rather than fondant.
Before we cut into the cake, Miss Add distributed the birthday cupcakes per her plan…
And then Aunt Lou butchered Bob… with a sort of gleeful intent…
Miss Add was soo excited about the cake all weekend long.
When we told her it was time to cut the cake she squealed with delight!
You would have thought Santa had just arrived.
More birthday highlights to come… stay tuned 🙂

I was looking at the cake last night on FB & wondered if you made it…I forgot what an awesome baker/decorator your mom is! Didn't she use to make those small chocolate candies for people at church? Those things were always delicious!! Love the cake & clay decorations! What a colorful & fun birthday!
