Ahoy, Matey!

As we prepared for our trip to the Outer Banks this week, it seemed only fitting that I had a pirate ship cake to make for a very special 6 year-old!  One of my friends and fellow teachers, Rena, wanted a Lego cake for her son, and he ended up choosing Pirates of the Caribbean Legos to build for the top.  I just couldn't picture Lego Jack Sparrow standing atop an ordinary birthday cake, so I decided to figure out how to build a ship!  I learned a few things about ship building along the way that will definitely help me, should I ever have the chance to make another one, but for my first attempt, I am pretty proud!  Happy Birthday, Captain Gabe!!
