Friday is Coop's 5th birthday. He asked for a fireman party. I, of course, agreed and decided to make the cake myself. Now, I have made cakes before, but this one I decided to do "by the book." So 4 sheet cakes, 3 batches of buttercream frosting and a lot of food coloring later, I made a firetruck cake for Coop's party.
Special thanks to my wonderful friend, Corey and Kik Messenger!!!
Couldn't have done it without you "two." :)
