Angry Birds Cake

My baby brother turns 10 today. I can't believe he is already 10. I remember so well the day he was born and to me he still seems like a baby! My sister Kate sent all of us a link about a week ago of an angry birds cake a father had made for his son's birthday. She said it would be sweet if we did it for Max's birthday since he loves the game. I brought it up to max on Thursday of last week. At first he was like oh that's okay I just want one with Twix and Butterfinger. Then when he got home from school he came up to and said well, what if I did want an angry birds cake. He continued to ask me about it over the next two days. So Friday night he went for a sleep over at his cousin's house and my mom and I made a run to the store to get all the supplies we would need. Steve was spending the night out in Alpine too so we began the project of making cake and laying it all out. Saturday before and after the BYU game I made all the little characters out of fondant. I was lucky to have Susie step in the next day to finish off 2 of the pigs and another yellow bird! Steve was our head engineer and I was the creative director. In the end Max loved it and it was a really fun project! Happy Birthday Max!!!
