We celebrated my middle son's seventh birthday yesterday...
He wanted to spend his birthday afternoon at the park with a few friends and my homemade (read: ugly!) vegan chocolate cake. Nothing fancy. Nothing Halloween-ish. (Although we did bob for apples, 'cause that's just good fall fun.)
Having a birthday two days before a popular holiday has its challenges. October is so full of activities, and my energy wanes toward the end of it, so I always feel like I haven't made a big enough deal about the birthday.
But he thought it was just right. Simple, sweet, and fun.
That's my boy. Getting so grown up.
we had a great time!! your "ugly" cake was a huge hit and we totally loved bobing for "water"...silly me...
ReplyDeleteI'm just glad there was some of that ugly cake left when I got home from work, l.o.l! It was yummy. I'm glad Papa and I got to help celebrate with him.
ReplyDeleteI want some ugly cake for my birthday :)
