Lydia turned 4 on April 5th. Grandma and Grandpa Knudsen were able to come from California to visit and be here for her birthday party that we had a few days before her real birthday. She has been asking for a Strawberry Shortcake birthday party for about 7 months. Luckily I was able to find Strawberry Shortcake party stuff at Zurcher's. That is the best store when it comes to party supplies and the only one that carried Strawberry Shortcake.
I decided I would try making her cake with fondant this year, and got a really great recipe for Marshmallow fondant. Several people said that Marshmallow fondant tastes way better than regular fondant, so I gave it a try. I love whipped cream frosting as well, so I made the cake out of both.
I also make some "strawberry" sugar cookies to go with the theme. I love these sugar cookies, so it gave me a good excuse to make them.
Lydia got lots of fun presents and had a great time with family and friends. Thanks to everyone for coming and for the great presents!!
