4 days...

...and we're just about ready for cake layers!

Call me a morning person, and I know it's only been about 12 hours since I last posted, which I suppose could mean I'm OCD, but I don't have time to think about that right now.

I don't really have many words to add to these pics; they're pretty self-explanatory.  The first two show the mess that carving styrofoam makes...

And then these last two show a couple of views of the foam layers post carving and covering with baker's foil. 

Can you read the labels?  Make sense?  I still need to glue the tender and cab bases down onto the train wood base, but I'm waiting until after C visits tomorrow evening to do that just in case our discussion means tweaking things.  We're pretty much committed on the engine - although there's still hours in the days to redo but I might have to cry, if so!

That should be all for today!  Thanks again for taking this train journey with us!  And yes, just so you know, I will be posting pics of constructing the wedding cake, but I'm just not doing anything on it yet - unless you want to see pics of the base or black ribbon...hmmm...maybe tomorrow...

Love,
Jus' Deb
