Birthdays

Over the years I have seen many of my friends decorate their children's birthday cakes fabulously and have always been very jealous. Well this year I decided that it would be fun to make a cake for Chayse and Tate. I got some good coaching from Melissa and all the tools I needed. I don't think I did that bad of a job for my first try! It is very addicting though and for my birthday Melissa got me an entire cake decorating kit so now I need someone to have a party so I can make a cake!











I was NOT feeling so hot on my birthday so we just went to Drew's parents so they could wait on us... true birthday fashion! Chayse was HYSTERICAL with her cake. She just picked up that piece of cake and went to town with it. She is starting to hate anything that confines her and she was trying to crawl out of her high chair as soon as she was done making a huge mess.








Tate was grumpy... imagine that... and kept yelling at everyone about getting near his cake or touching him or being in his spot etc etc etc. Eventually he blew out his candles and was lucky enough that Grandma gave him a birthday hair cut. (He used some scissors to his own hair and made some really sweet looking zig zags.)









All in all the day was great. Having 3 birthdays all in 1 week is pretty exciting and I imagine as the kids get older it will only get more crazy and more expensive!!

You did an amazing job on the cakes! You have so many wonderful talents! I can't believe the kids are growing up so fast. Sorry to hear you were not feeling well on your birthday...it's always good to have wonderful people willing to take care of us when we just don't feel well! I hope all thing are better now?
