Completed birthday cake
Feb. 6th, 2005 11:13 pmThe rock-climbing-themed birthday cake was completed this afternoon, and was hauled to Altanta Rocks! for the party. The cake was much admired by the staff, I must say. (Though they'd have preferred it if the cake surface had been vertical...)
The party went well--very low effort for the parents, as the staff handles all the kids while they are climbing. After they'd all been at it for an hour and a half, sis-in-law rounded them up and herded 'em back to a party room where we cut the cake, added ice cream, and passed out additional sugar in various forms. Then passed said kids back to their various parental units in time for everyone to get home for dinner and the SuperBowl kickoff.

Yes, the doll does have her face in the ganache--the action figure turned out to have a pretty small range of motion, and our options for posing her were limited.
