Happy Birthday, Mermaid Grace!







Okay, so Gracie Beth Benish's birthday was just a little over a week ago, but I decided that a 5th birthday is still blog worthy even if it is a little late. After all, "My Busy B's" wasn't even born until a few days ago. Grace really wanted a swimming party (who DOESN'T want a swimming party in February?!), so the obvious theme for a princess loving birthday girl's swim party was "Under the Sea". I made a mermaid cake, fishy cupcakes, and we munched on goldfish and fruit snacks then headed to the pool! The Jones Center rocks! It has an indoor pool with a big water slide AND a kiddie section with a waterfall...and it's FREE! Can't beat that! She had a blast...quite possibly the best party yet. Yes, we did Chuck E Cheese last year and, no, we will NEVER do that again. :)

  1. I am always amazed at your cakes. You make mine look like kiddy art! :) Seriously, you have inspired me to try a little fondant with the buttercream on Anna K's cake this year.
    I am so sad I missed the swim party...what fun.
