Anyone with kids knows that there are many class parties.  I don’t mind signing up to bring things – and of course, you know what I pick:  Sweet Treat! 😉

We were signed up for a sweet treat for Emily’s valentine’s party this week.  I was poking around the net a few weeks ago and read Bakerella’s post with her Valentine’s Day Bears. So…cute… !!!  I showed them to Emily when she got home and she was all over that idea.

I gathered the necessary items and last weekend she helped me create these adorable bears.  I won’t lie – they took time – but we had so much fun doing them together and she learned all kinds of techniques and skills.  Plus the bragging rights that she helped create them. 🙂  She helped with each step along the way.  She’s almost 9 so I didn’t think she’d necessarily hang in there for the whole process but she did.

And we were both pleased with the results!  Thank you, Bakerella for your inspiration.  Check her out – you’ll be inspired as well!
