Our family clebrated my birthday today. Mom and I stayed up late last night making this cake. Isn't it beautiful? Let me just tell you what went into it. First you make two delicious coconut cakes. Then you brush them with a lime glaze that I licked out of the bowl more times than I care to admit. When that is set, you frost it with a cream cheese-coconut frosting and top with toasted coconut. I almost cried when I ate it.
Dad made us all bleu cheese burgers while I took a nap. After dinner, Brandon started an amateur rugby league in the backyard. He even got Mabel to kick the ball. That only lasted until she accidentally kicked it into Asher's face, and then
she (not Asher, he was fine) ran off crying. Poor girl, I guess the guilt was just too much for her.
When everyone had recovered the kids played ring around the rosie.
And everyone loved their pixie stick magic wands that I made for them.
After that, we took a nice bike ride around the neighborhood. Despite the previous pictures, Violet LOVES riding the bike now. It was a perfect day, and it's not even my birthday yet!
