Dora Pride

Hey! We had eClaire’s birth­day party on Satur­day!! It was really, really fun! (Pho­tos)

Sooo… let’s talk about me!!

Check out what I did!!

Dora the Explorer Cake

No seriously, I did that!!

Dora! That’s right! Me!

I’m no Casey, who is A.MAZ.ING, but hot damn. I’m pretty proud of my first attempt at being Baker Extraordinaire!

Shh, don’t tell anyone, but it was actually quite easy. I Goo­gle searched for a Dora the Explo­rer cake tem­plate and found that NickJr. actually has step by step direc­tions. Oh, I was quite excited.

    That is ama­zing! Did eClaire flip over it? (I’m assu­ming your son wouldn’t ask for a Dora cake, maybe that’s an unsafe assumption?)

    Oh how fun! It looks like the kids had a blast at eClaire’s party.
    LOVE that cake! I felt the same way when I did a Blue’s Clues one from a tem­plate for Tyler’s 2nd birth­day. My mom makes gor­geous cakes, but that gene must have skip­ped me. Figures.

    Nice work, Dora would be proud. Before she was con­su­med, of course.
