12

My oldest celebrated her 12th birthday this week!!  I still cannot believe it has been 12 years since we were blessed with this beautiful baby girl!  Sometimes it seems like yesterday, while other times it seems like it was forever ago!!!   She says she is "too old" for a party, so she and friends went to out to eat and to a movie.  They got their own table, ordered all by themselves and sent the bill to her Daddy, who was setting with me just a few tables away!!  He was really funny, the waitor had seated them, them was going to put us at a table across the restaurant, he looked at me and said "really", then nicely asked the waitor for a table a little closer to them!! He can't let her grow up too fast. :)

Birthday morning I fixed her favorite, Homemade Cinnamon Rolls

YUMMY!!
Usually they get to decide what they want for dinner or if they want to go out for dinner.  Well, it just so happens Baseball / Softball has started so... One had a ballgame and she had practice, so she had ball-game nachos for dinner, and I let her :) she thought that was great!!    And of course we still had cake when we got home!   She wanted to make it easy on me (right!!) so she just wanted a "Houndstooth and Hot Pink" Birthday Cake!   She was very pleased with the results, and I must admit, I was too!!!


Not too bad for my first bow and curly q's!   The bottom layer was Marble cake and the top was Pound Cake!  Both layers were covered with Buttercream icing!   The pound cake even turned out very good!
