The busiest and most important time of the year in this house are the two weeks before Christmas. This includes John and Lilly's birthday, their birthday party, Lilly's dance recital and this year Mi Mi and Dzia Dzia were here which was really nice since we wont be with them in South Bend for Christmas. In these weeks I make at least 3 cakes, a couple dozen cupcakes and at least 3 big meals. This year we treated the night of Lilly's dance recital as a Christmas meal and her birthday dinner in one. We used my Christmas dishes and china, we ate prime rib and all the great sides, and had wonderful wine and family. It was a great weekend!
Lilly's Birthday cake got away from me. By the time I started working on it I was a little too tired and a little crabby. It was suppose to turn out like one of those cakes that the cake part is the dress of the barbie, instead it looked like a stripper jumping out of cake! oops.
We tried to show Lilly how to show how old she was on her fingers, but it just looks like she has gang symbols haha.
Sunday was Lilly's actual birthday and we were all so tired from the couple of weeks of presents and parties we barley made it to dinner! haha But when the cupcake came over with a candle in it, Lilly knew she should wear...
