You've Had a Birthday Shout HOORAY!

The post title is the name of a song kids sing in primary for our church. So really it'll mean more to you if you know the song. Gracie had a birthday as of late. This is her blowing out the candles on her cake that she requested. She first asked for a castle cake and I had a pattern I was going to use, but then when she was talking on the phone to my sister she started describing a cake that is nothing like the cake in the pattern. So I did my best to create what she wanted. This was the result. James looked at it and said "Have you seen Monsters Inc lateley?" Yes, it does kind of look like a monster doesn't it? But she said it was EXACTLY what she wanted. And unlike usual cakes that look good, this one actually tasted good. It's our families favourite chocolate/strawberry/pudding cake made to look like a castle/monster.

She LOVES to help.

So excited to get her present from grandma. It'll help her pass the time during the countless hours that she spends waiting in doctors offices and hospitals. Oh yes, she and her sister had just finished playing pioneer in their pioneer dresses that they love so much.
