Avery's Sweet Shoppe

 We started off Avery's birthday by cuddling in bed and naming all the reason we love Avery. Then I made german pancakes for her special birthday breakfast, we sang Happy Birthday, she blew out some candles, and opened presents from the fam. 

she got a cute jacket
and a princess game

Then it was PaRTy TImE. The last few hours before the party were crazy, but I'm really pleased with the way things turned out. It was a huge hit with the kids! We had SO much fun. 



silly me thought it would be easy to make a fondant cake
the kids made candy necklaces and played games to earn "money" to go shopping at Avery's sweet shoppe.
I did things in the wrong order and upset the birthday girl. Once I said she could open presents after she blew out the candles, she was happy again


We ended the day with candles on Pizza (her favorite dinner) and one last birthday wish as she blew out the  candles.

OK seriously that cake is amazing! My poor kids will never get parties like that! You really need to move to California so some of your creativity can brush off on me.

Okay, so did you figure out how to make that cake from a website or what? Where? OR did you just think of it off the top of your head without help? Is there anything you DON'T do? You and some of the other girls in the ward can do EVERYTHING. Where do you find the time?!
