We had been talking about the February 21, 2011, 5 year old birthday party since November 2010. Sammie started with the desire for a Care Bear cake. She was very disappointed to learn that I did not have the talent to make a care bear cake, Sammie did not understand why I could make a Batman and Robin cake for Tommy but not CareBear cake. I guess I know my limits. We were saved by Elizabeth Stanley when she found a cake topping that was carebear, peanut free and something we could eat. See below:
This is the morning of her birthday where we all got to eat cake for breakfast.
Now for the birthday parties. We had a party at the Stanleys house the weekend after her birthday but I have not loaded those photos yet so we will get back to that party. Sammie had a birthday party with some of her girlfriends, including herself 9 of them. Sammie had a flip flop theme for her party because she wanted to paint everyone's fingernails and toe nails. Here is the flip flop cake she was helping me make. I actually made our own fondaunt!
Can you tell that I used a cut out of my own flip flop, size 11 shoe for the cake model? HUGE
Sammie decided she wanted to add flowers to her flip flop cake.
At the party each of the girls had their toes painted and finger nails painted. We also had the girls make their own personal pair of decorated flip flops.
Can you see that Sammie had a flip flop t-shirt on too?
