Can I Build It? Yes I Can!

A few weeks ago, a friend of mine had a baby shower. Her sister, who threw the shower, asked me if I would bring some sort of fruit tray. She sent me a link to a cute idea that I could try. I opened up the link and this is what I saw.

I thought to myself, "Who does she think I am, Martha Stewart?" "There's no way I can make that."

But it did look pretty cute so I talked myself into giving it a shot.

This was my end result: It's just a little carriage because I couldn't find a big watermelon.

I would like to thank:

1. Bertie for giving me the idea and believing I could do it.

2. Channing for being my cheerleader along the way. She kept saying, "Good job mom! It's looking like the picture."

3. Chloe for taking a wonderful nap. Sometimes it's hard having, not 2, but 4 extra helping hands.

4. And last of all, HEB grocery store for having a decent price on out of season fruit. I couldn't have done it without them.

The girls loved the carriage and couldn't wait until the next morning because I promised them any leftovers. It's funny how in their eyes the ordinary fruit turned into something extraordinary when put inside a watermelon baby carriage.

So if you ever need a cute fruit dish idea for a baby shower, here are the instructions.
