Summer birthdays!

Nathan turned 10 on May 4th!

Nathan wanted a soccer cake!!!

Weston turned 11 on July 20th!

Weston decided he wanted a Minecraft birthday cake.  I was worried at first (b/c those tiny little squares can be hard to make!!! :) )  But, when he told me he wanted a block of sod, I knew I would have fun with it. The 'mud' is a mixture of crushed Oreos and chocolate frosting (an idea found on Pinterest, of course.)  It really was the best "dirt" we'd ever tasted!!

And WES just had his birthday on August 19th!!!!

LOVE living on the Mediterranean! :)

Wes has wanted a fryer forever.  Wings are his favorite thing, but we can't get them here.  So.... happy birthday!...we finally got him a fryer. :)

Combined with Frank's Hot Sauce...

And we had a feast!

We topped it off with a homemade Oreo Pizookie.  Have you ever had a Pizookie? Oh. My. Goodness.  Melt in your mouth, gooey, chocolatey decadence.  You have to eat it HOT and right out of the pan!!!  It's amazing.

 

Carolina's birthday is coming up next!... September 18th! :)  Last year, we were in the States for her birthday and life was just too hectic to post, so here's a pic of the cake we made for Carolina, Margaret and Brooke... all 3 cousins share birthdays within several weeks of each other.

So... what will Carolina's theme of choice be for this coming birthday???  We have yet to figure that out... :)  We will keep you posted. :)
