The Taylors Enjoy Ice Cream at the Park (Photostory)

My new workspace has me creating all sorts of goodies.  I thought I'd make a few ice cream cones for the Etsy store.  After all, what doll doesn't enjoy a good cone, every now and then.  

All three come together as a set.  The flavors are strawberry, chocolate chip, and chocolate/vanilla marble.

They are served on a sugar cone.  Yes, they are slightly different sizes, because they are individually handcrafted without the use of molds.  I think this adds to the realism.  Don't you get mad when you go out to get ice cream and you end up with the smallest scoop? 

After lunch the Taylors went on a few more rides.  Jacob got in a good nap and is now well rested.  On the other hand, Julian is pooped.  Those little legs couldn't take any more walking, so Danielle suggested he get in the stroller.  She thought he would protest, but he must have really been tired because he climbed right in.

"Hellooo.  Can I interest you in some ice cream?"  (Ursula)
Hmmm?  Ursula is serving ice cream?  Maybe she is trying to improve upon her villainous image.

As soon as Julian hears the words ice cream, he tries to climb out of the stroller.

"Mom, I'm stuck.  Can you help me?"   (Julian)

"Yes, but let's go over to the bench first."  (Danielle)

Danielle and Jacob wait on the bench, while Rod and the kids get the ice cream.

"Where do you think you're going, little man?"  (Danielle)

Ice cream is ordered and Rod proceeds to pay for it.

Mickey Mouse ice cream cupcakes for Nicole and Julian.

And regular cones for Rod and Danielle.

"Take a lick, Jacob."  (Danielle)

"Watch it, honey.  Looks like it's about to fall."  (Rod)

"Want some, mommy?"  (Julian)
"No, thank you.  You need to start eating it before the ice cream melts."  (Danielle)

"Wait a minute, Jacob.  Let mommy have some."  (Danielle)

The Taylors are going to sleep well after this trip.  Definitely one for the memory books.

    1. Carrickters - You have hot weather! Awesome. I made ice cream to help bring the warmer weather here a little quicker. Jacob was not wanting to let the cone go.

  8. The ice cream looks sooo good! If I would have seen this post earlier, I would've made a Baskin Robbin's run. :)

    Love the park mini-series, they really have covered quite a bit of Disney World.

  11. I love this little story. Julian in Jacob's stroller is so cute ! Before reading the text I was wondering "Why Julian is in the stroller ? He's old enough to walk..." Your ice cream are wonderful, they look very realistic, you're so good with fimo. I hope that you will show us some photos of your new workspace.

  15. Oh, does Ursula have real legs or normal legs too? I love the ice cream. I'm sure Rod and Danielle wish they could get into a stroller too! I know my feet were tired when I was there. Do you think you will be able to use Ursula again for something? Great post.

    1. Ms. Leo - Ursula doesn't have any legs. Her limbs are strong enough that she can stand on her own. I'm sure I'll find something to do with Ursula.
