Cupcake Zoo!

Owen picked up a book at the library that he has been carrying around showing us all week. "Hey mom, can we make these?" "Hey dad, let's do this now please!"

What was he hoping to make? Cupcake Critters.
With Brecken's support and creative direction, Owen set out to recreate all of the cupcake critters.For the amount of licorice and number of starbursts that were consumed during the course of this project, we're pretty sure that Owen may have conned all of us.
In the end, Owen did a great job and was pretty proud of his creations.In fact, he was so proud of the creations that when we all sat down to enjoy a cupcake, Owen couldn't bring himself to eat the pink pig that he picked out. He licked around the edges and managed to eat the starburst ears, but he otherwise left it on his plate and carried it around the kitchen talking to it. Three hours later at dinner he ate the entire thing and didn't think twice, but out of the gate he was having a hard time.
