We Have A New 8 Year Old!

 My June baby!
Can you guess her favorite color?

This child is pure JOY

Yellow, bright as the SUN!!

(that's how you put candles on a cake like this!)
 
 I've always called her "My little love girl" 
because she is always there with a hug and kiss
She always wants to snuggle
She's always there to help
(Even though her help is often more than I need)
She's so innocent and loving always.

Pure JOY I tell you!
 

 The cake turned out great, so easy to have cake and ice cream (cones)
 Super fun "Sun Party"!
The messier the better, right?
 She (and the little kids) made the decorations!
The cake is just 2 round cakes layered, with yellow frosting (in a can)
ice cream cones, $5 sunglasses, and Junior Mints!
(we got chocolate chip ice cream to put in those cones)

Usually, my purple iris's are blooming on her birthday, but this year, 
they are only 6 inches tall...we just ended winter 2 weeks ago!

  1. Happy happy birthday to your sweetie, Jamie! Love the cake idea...chocolate chip ice cream is a favorite in this house. For some reason, it is hard to find...
    Have a great week. : )

  9. Happy birthday to your daughter! That cake is great. One thing I'm enjoying as the kids get older is their contributions to the party.
