Cakes-yum!

I am working on my nephew, Hunter's, 5th birthday cake today and tomorrow, so I thought I'd go ahead and post the pics of the twins'  birthday cakes that I have never posted.  Yes, from December (twins' 3rd b-day).  I am behind.  :-)  Story of my life!!!  :-)   I'm also electronically challenged at times, Henry's 1st birthday cake wouldn't upload (from Feb.).  I'll have to work on that when I have more time. 

I will post a pic of Hunter's cake too, when it's done.  It is a beachy/pool party theme this year.  Fun stuff!  Hope it turns out how I have it pictured in my head.  We'll see! 

Carson's John Deere 3rd birthday cake- I decided instead of buying a $15-20 tractor shaped pan, I'd just use the money to buy him a few tractors he could play with later on.  He loved it!  He plays with these tractors almost every day!  I found the tractors at Walmart and Tractor Supply. 

Emilynn's 3rd birthday Dora the Explorer cake- I had this pan because I made it for my little sister, Alyssa's birthday one year.  It was neat to make this cake again.  The only drawback to this cake is the different colors.  You have to mix a LOT of colors for this cake.  Like light pink for just the bottom of her shoes and tongue.  Yellow for socks and bracelet.  Anyway, it was still fun and my little Explorer loved it!
