   so, so , so cute.  Love her cake.  Well done with all the decorations.  
 
 Lissy (and jayde) had a horse like that.  Does your one sing the song.  "clippity, clippity clop, la dee da dee da" or something like that?  Lissy used to sing it all the time as she rode the horse.  Ended up wearing out the button.

   Thanks Guys...yes I liked the fact that her birthday was not PINK
 Maria: I think it sings "I am a horsey, yes I am....."
        It also talks "Would you like to go for a ride"
        "I love riding all day long"...etc etc
 Aimee: hell yes...I am not doing it like this again    
        till she is 21...even then I might brain wash   
        her and send her off on a Overseas trip instead 
        of doing her party. Thanks....the centrepieces 
        took me ages to do....I was giving up for a 
        sec....I had to only do 8 of them....   .
 Hayley: I love that book and the only problem is that I 
         already bought that for her but in soft back 
         and she got a hard back...so now I have two!!
 Ella: Dont feel like Mickeys party will be no big  
       deal...honestly if it was not a tradition on my 
       Inlaws part of the world, I would have not 
       bothered!! The whole thing cost me $2K....man I 
       need months to recover from it. From now its 
       strickly a few kids, nibbles affair!!!
 Lu: I wont even bother trying to Top that!! LOL 
 Re the cake: I spent $130 on it...and was not happy with it at all. I am going to print the photo and send it with a "unhappy customer" letter.

   Well, for one when I went to order the cake, I asked what does the biggest cake look like so they showed me the Tin....It was huge...I said cool I will order that size. They charged me $130 for it and I also said I want it in MUD. I told them I want the cake to have two shades of purple....when hubby picked up the cake, it was far from Huge...It was the large size. There was two shades of purple but you can hardly tell.....and the cake was not MUD!
 If you look at the first photo you will see that third block "A" has a chip on the back and the patch work was horrid! I know these are small things but I wanted every thing to be perfect.....Yes I am a nutter!!!    |

   Same thing happened with our wedding cake that cost $450! It wasn't the colour I was expecting, the icing people were also different to expected and the actual cakes themselves were dry and not that nice... I know it didnt make any difference and nobody knew any different but I felt a lot better for letting her know I was disappoined.

   Zaara's party was flasher than my WEDDING Roksana!!!  then again we did just do the registry office thing!
 She looks so gorgeous in her little clothes.  Oh, nad the cake looks fine to me, but then at $130 I'd want it to be gold-plated or something!!!   |

   Lol...Liz....
 Yah like I said every body was like wow nice cake!!! But to me its not what I paid for. I will write a letter and let them know that I was not happy and in the future will stick to my original cake company. I ordered my Mums cake from there (for the same day...it was my mums birthday and she cut the cake at the party) and that cake looked sooo good, tho it was sooo simple and it was soo much nicer to eat!! I should have just ordered Zaara's from there too...oh well!
