Ben's Birthday

We ususally do a big friend party at the age of 5, so this year it was Ben's turn. I won't put a lot of explanation into the photos. They are just your typical party photos.


This however I will explain. I totally stole this idea from someone's blog. I thought it would be too hard to pull off, mostly because we live in po-dunk-town and I knew the closest store that would carry fondant was an hour and a half away. But my sweet friend Martha is a cake making master and she told me how to make fondant. It was really easy. The only issue I had was it was like 95% humidity today and it made the fondant sticky to work with.

I hate to brag, but I am rather pleased with the end result!
