Football Season

I know we are well into football season, but there's still time for a great cake!  My son's school had their first home game last Friday.  He's in Kindergarten, and his school is K-12.  They have Senior buddies, so they met up with them to cheer the football team onto the field.

To help get the Kindergartners excited about the evening, I brought in a football cake for Jackson's class.  I happened to buy a football cake mold at a {yard sale} a while back knowing that with two boys I would have a chance to use it.  This was one of my first "fancy" cake-making sessions, and it turned out to be fun!  The boys even enjoyed helping and licking the icing out of the bowl :)

I checked with Jackson's teacher to make sure it would fit into their schedule and was able to bring it in after I volunteered in their library.  Here it is:

 The kids loved it!
