Cymbre is 8!


Here's Cymbre, her *8* candle, and her Bright Sky Rainbow cake. We saw the recipe in the mini American Girl magazine that came with Cymbre's Kit doll and I found it online here: http://homepage.mac.com/baroose/iblog/C1523793326/E20070513202546/index.html I made yellow cake batter from scratch instead of white cake mix. I also made the frosting from scratch. I saved white frosting to do the clouds but was too tired by the time I assembled the cake so I went with a "cloudless sky."
Eli and Destiny are in the background waiting patiently for their cake.

Here's the cake in all its glory! It's pretty to look at but, in my opinion, not all that tasty. Everyone else seemed to love it, though!
Here's Cymbre with Harmony, Eli, and Destiny and the rest of the cake.
And here's our little Shiloh, just because he's getting so big!

Happy Birthday to Cymbre! We thought of her, but totally forgot to do something about it :) I even forgot my father-in-law's 60th birthday yesterday - eesh! Anyway, beautiful cake! And Happy, happy #8 to Cymbre!
