Party Number 2


Today was the second of Jake's 4 birthday parties this year. 4 parties?!?! Am I crazy? No, I am not one of those parents. Jake's definition of a party is getting presents and comsuming sugar. Due to circumstances beyond our control, we were not able to have all of the grandparents here for one party. So, last weekend we had a "party" with DH's parents when we dropped the boys off. That was party number 1.

Today was party number 2 with my parents. They came in for the day. After a lunch of homemade pizza, he opened his gifts. Check out Jake and his new toy....



And he's off.....

Darn, he's cute!

Then, after sweating in the humidity watching Jake try out his new skateboard, we headed back in to the air conditioning for some cake. This year's theme is pirates, so here is the treasure chest cake...

A little lopsided, but it definately meets the requirements of lots of sugar! It was really yummy!

sure did! I have always made my kids cakes. Something my mom did for us, and I continued for my kids. Plus, I love the taste of a homemade cake over store bought any day!
