Birthday

"J" celebrated her 5th birthday last week. This was the first year we didn't have a "big" party with friends at a venue of some sort. I felt guilty that we didn't have a "friends" party but in retrospect with the unexpected flooded basement we had enough on our plate for the weekend. "J" still had fun. Who doesn't love cake and presents!

Oh gosh, look at this sad cake. I tried to make the cake Jill wanted for her birthday because I just couldn't part with the 60 dollars that the bakery was asking for (a well done version of) the cake. She loved it and never once noticed the collapsing turrets. Nothing like a little pink icing to make every little girl's birthday wishes come true.


Yum, it tastes even better than it looks


Ooh! Ahh! princesses and more princesses


Not just a scooter...a princess scooter


Happy Birthday "J"
