Daddy had a blazing fireball of a cake this year! But he managed to get all 37 candles blown out in one breath. It helped that they were all really close together on his little cake. Since Daddy is vegan, and has been for over a year, we did not try to bake him the cake. We just bought it at a cute bakery in town that sells things like this to crazy people like us. We had a good day.
As it has now been over 2 months since his birthday and as my memory is not so great I can't tell you all the details of what we did . I know we had a hunt in the morning for dad and we gave him a small lap quilt we made him. Elsie picked out the fabric and designed the quilt. She helped to sew it a little by pressing on the presser foot while I guided the fabric through the machine. We had our good friend quilt it for us and now we just need to finish binding it by hand! He likes it a lot and plans to use it while laying by Elsie at night.
Later that day we went out to see Will's dad and step mom. I think the boys went golfing and when they came home we were waiting for them with a surprise cake! Elsie put all 37 candles on and then we ate it! Here's to a new year filled with love and lots of laughs.
