We had dinner with Rosina and Dion to celebrate my birthday and Dion’s. I turned 46 and he turned 56, which when you mash it together is 456. We look good for our age.

We had such a good Easter this year. So much better than last year, but having wisdom teeth removed would be better than last Easter. We crocheted, we had a water balloon fight, Robin made this bunny cake, we played a new game called Chicken Butt, and we had a delicious ham dinner made by Billy. I have the best family. We missed Colleen and her crew, but hope to see them in a few weeks for Mother’s Day. My heart is full.

It was a long, long day, and we have an early, early morning tomorrow. So here is a picture of a cake that I did not eat.

And just like that, we officially have a teenager. She was incredibly grouchy through the fetuccini alfredo I made for her from scratch, the walk around the block with the dogs, and blowing out the candles on the Oreo cake I made for her, also from scratch. She refused to smile for a photo and only perked up when I told her we’d wait to give her her present until she was feeling better. She bought a bunch of inappropriate clothes with the money we gave her and went to bed happy. I personally had a great day of baking and cooking. Happy birthday, little big one.

Robin made this amazing cake for us. It was a challenging recipe and it took almost the whole day to make, but she did it herself with minimal supervision. It was incredibly delicious. Didn’t look as perfect as the picture in the book, but pretty close! She loves to bake and I was so happy to support her in it. And I think everyone enjoyed the results!
