Laura's Birthday Party! Or not.

Today was Laura's big 4th birthday party. She was excited to have her 'Doctor Party' with a doctor theme.

As is the tradition for Laura, I bake and decorate the cake. I'm man enough to do that task. In fact, icing a cake is similar to caulking.


The finished product. A stethoscope and doctor kit for those who can't realize the genius of my art. (Sugar & fat are challenging artistic medium!)


Emily made some great decorations.


Here is the party in full swing. Yes, every attendee is accounted for. I guess 16" of blowing drifting snow make the road pretty much impassable. While I was shoveling the driveway, 1 car went by and came back about 5 minutes later with its hazard lights on, and another got stuck in the driveway. We'll have the party very soon when the roads are plowed.


Instead of a party, the family made a gingerbread train.


Then they got to eat it. That's a pretty natural shade of green, I am sure there are no artificial colors in the icing.


Anna thought the icing was yummy. I tried the gingerbread, it was NOT GOOD.


Laura likes the icing, and she got over the cancellation of her party pretty quick.
