Step by step instructions on how to make a princess castle cake

Wash your hands while singing your ABC’s…

Gather all of your ingredients that you will need…

Make your cake mixes by cracking the eggs and mixing well, making sure to take time to taste…

Get the mischievous baby off the ladder again…

Taste the batter once again before pouring it into the buttered pan…

Taste ONCE more before baking JUST to make sure it’s right…

Dye frosting pink and purple, and taste to make sure it’s sweet enough before icing the cake…

Frost and decorate castle turrets with sprinkles, of course making sure they taste good too…

Learn to use the piping gun and decorate the castle… and play a little with it too…

 

Finishing decorating, adding a blue Jell-O moat around the castle and Nestle crunch doors and windows…

 

And… VOILA… a beautiful princess castle cake!

 

     

  

Taste your masterpiece if you’re not too full of frosting, and be sure to share with your sister…

Pat your dad on the back to tell him it was a job well done…

Disneyworld!

We just got back from our family vacation to Disneyworld, and we had an AMAZING time! We saw Mickey & Minnie, Cinderella’s castle, TONS of princesses, and went on tons of awesome rides… and that was only at the Magic Kingdom! We also spent two days exploring Sea World, where we saws lots of animal shows, and even got to feed the dolphins! Since mommy took over 800 pictures, we had to make a slideshow to put up on the blog, or we would run out of space (don’t worry… not all 800 are in the slideshow either)! Enjoy the pictures, and we’ll try to post a movie and some more pictures later!

My first ballet class

I went to my very first ballet class today, and my friends Abby K & Julie were there too! Allison will even be there next week with us! I am SO excited to learn to dance, and I LOVE my leotard and ballet slippers! Mommy was a “little” disappointed because she wasn’t allowed to come in to see my lesson and take pictures, but when we’re done with our classes, we’re going to put on a little recital  for the mommies, so stay tuned for pictures then!

Happy 4th of July!

Happy 4th of July everyone! We went to our annual family party this year for some swimming on the beach and a beautiful fireworks show! We got to see Nannie & Grandpa, Bridget & Kevin, and even Dancey-Dancey & Pop-Pop! The ocean was great, and we LOVED swimming… especially since it was 95 degrees outside! Daddy even found a kayak to hang out on for a while! We also got to stay up really late for the fireworks show… even Emily loved it this year! We hope you all had a great weekend!
